Abstract
The invention provides a method and system for tracking a position of one or more Wi-Fi devices of a plurality of Wi-Fi devices. For tracking the position of the one or more Wi-Fi devices, a Triggering Router triggers the one or more Wi-Fi devices to transmit one of a broadcast probe and a directed probe through broadcasting hidden SSID networks and common SSIDs that increase a probing tendency of the one or more Wi-Fi devices. The plurality of Wi-Fi sniffers, then, collect measurement data associated with the one or more Wi-Fi devices in response to detecting the broadcast probe transmission and the directed probe transmission. Thereafter, the position of the one or more Wi-Fi devices is estimated using an adaptive machine learning model based on an indoor model whose parameters are tuned based on radio frequency (RF) measurements from the plurality of Wi-Fi devices and the measurement data.
