Abstract

Systems and techniques are provided for indoor positioning for mobile devices. An orientation of a mobile device may be determined. An angle of a line-of-sight between the mobile device and the base station may be determined based on a peak received signal strength of a signal from the base station at a beamforming antenna of the mobile device. A distance between the mobile device and the base station may be determined based on the peak received signal strength. The mobile device may calculate the location of the mobile device using the measured orientation, the angle of the line-of-sight, and the distance between the mobile device and the base station, and a location of the base station.
