Abstract

Systems, methods, and apparatus receive a signal from a first wireless device through a first antenna, of a plurality of antennas, the signal including a first segment and a second segment. Responsive to detecting a change in the signal from the first segment to the second segment, embodiments traverse the plurality of antennas to receive the second segment through each of the plurality of antennas. Embodiments determine a plurality of phase samples, each associated with the second segment received through one of the plurality of antennas. Embodiment then use the plurality of phase samples to calculate direction data associated with the first wireless device.
