Geo-tagged beacons for Wi-Fi performance optimization
Abstract:
A system, method, and computer-readable medium for performing a geo-tagged beaconing operation. With the geo-tagged beaconing operation, Wi-Fi nodes include geographic information within beacon frames generated by the nodes. In various embodiments, the Wi-Fi nodes include one or more of networking equipment access points, client devices and dedicated Wi-Fi endpoints. Enables a device attempting a Wi-Fi connection to determine its location based upon the geographic information contained within the beacon frame. Upon detecting its location, the Wi-Fi radio then dynamically selects one or more Wi-Fi mode and/or power calibration setting.
