Abstract

A tracking device, a tracking system, and a tracking device control method with safe-zone demarcation based on the usually detected WiFi access points are provided. The tracking device includes a telecommunication transceiver, a WiFi receiver and a microcontroller. The microcontroller is configured to operate the telecommunication transceiver to transmit WiFi information to a server during a data-collection period for behavior analysis of a tracked object equipped with the tracking device and for safe-zone demarcation of the tracking device. The WiFi information indicates WiFi access points detected by the WiFi receiver. The safe-zone demarcation of the tracking device is adaptive to habitual behaviors, obtained from the behavior analysis, of the tracked object.
