Abstract

A system for navigating a dynamic pool equipment unit is disclosed. The system comprises a wireless unit physically connected to the dynamic pool equipment unit deployed in a water pool, allowing the wireless unit to move with the equipment while partially out of the water. The wireless unit includes a first interface for communicating with the equipment unit via a first communication channel, and a second interface for intercepting wireless signals from external stations via a wireless communication channel. A controller navigates the equipment unit towards the external station(s) by measuring the received signal strength indicator (RSSI) of intercepted wireless signals, estimating the direction of the external station(s) based on RSSI analysis, and transmitting movement instructions to the equipment unit to advance in the estimated direction.
