Abstract

Techniques for generating a prediction for a location of a mobile device includes a network controller obtaining signal strength information and angle-of-arrival information for mobile devices from a plurality of access points disposed at a location that includes two or more zones. The network controller extracts features from the obtained information. The features indicate whether the mobile devices are more likely in a first zone than in one or more of second zones of the two or more zones. The network controller generates a software model for classifying a mobile device into one of the two or more zones by applying a computer learning process to the extracted features. The network controller uses the software model to generate a prediction indicating that a first mobile device is in one of the two or more zones, and performs an action at the location based on the prediction.
