Abstract
Disclosed are methods, systems, devices, apparatus, computer-/processor-readable media, and other implementations, including a method, at a processor-based mobile device, that includes determining a first set of candidate positions of the mobile device corresponding to a first time instance based, at least in part, on position data including a first set of identifiers decoded from signals including respective first one or more light-based communications received by the mobile device from a first one or more light devices, with the mobile device being located at a first location at the first time instance. The method further includes selecting at least one candidate position from the first set of candidate positions, in response to a determination that the first set of candidate positions includes more than one candidate position, in order to resolve positional ambiguity, based, at least partly, on further position data from further signals from one or more devices.
