Abstract
An example system connects to a location engine in a mesh network, transmits a first message indicating a bus master service hosted by a bus master, and receives a message indicating a location service hosted by a location engine and an aggregation service hosted by an aggregator connected to the location engine. The bus master stores a first entry corresponding to the location service and a second entry corresponding to the aggregation service. The bus master transmits a request to access the location service; receives a response confirming a subscription to the location service; and receives timing data indicating times at which the multiple receivers in a clinical environment received a wireless signal from a tag. The bus master aggregates the timing data into a data stream and transmits data stream to the location service in accordance with the subscription.
