SURFACE ACOUSTIC WAVE (SAW) BACKSCATTER-BASED POSITIONING - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240185017 titled 'SURFACE ACOUSTIC WAVE (SAW) BACKSCATTER-BASED POSITIONING
Simplified Explanation
The patent application abstract describes a method of wireless communication that supports backscatter-based positioning using surface acoustic wave (SAW) tag devices. The method involves receiving multiple measurement reports associated with the SAW tag device, determining the position of the device based on these reports, and utilizing multiple transmission/reception points (TRPs) for accurate positioning.
- SAW tag devices are used for wireless communication.
- The method involves receiving and analyzing multiple measurement reports from different TRPs.
- The position of the SAW tag device is determined based on the collected data.

This technology could be applied in various industries such as logistics, inventory management, and asset tracking where precise positioning of objects is required.
Problems Solved
This technology solves the problem of accurately determining the position of SAW tag devices in wireless communication systems, enabling efficient tracking and monitoring of assets.
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include improved accuracy in positioning, enhanced asset tracking capabilities, and increased efficiency in wireless communication systems.
Potential Commercial Applications
The potential commercial applications of this technology include supply chain management, retail inventory tracking, and industrial automation systems.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be the use of RFID technology for asset tracking and positioning in wireless communication systems.
=== What are the specific industries that could benefit from this technology? Industries such as healthcare, manufacturing, and transportation could benefit from the precise positioning capabilities of this technology.
=== How does this technology compare to existing positioning systems? This technology offers a more cost-effective and efficient solution for positioning compared to traditional GPS systems, especially in indoor environments where GPS signals may be weak or unavailable.
Original Abstract Submitted
this disclosure provides systems, methods, and devices for wireless communication that support backscatter-based positioning. in a first aspect, a method of wireless communication includes receiving multiple measurement reports associated with a surface acoustic wave (saw) tag device. the multiple measurement reports include, for each transmission/reception point (trp) of multiple trps, a measurement report of the trp. the method also includes determining, based on the multiple measurement reports, a position of the saw tag device. other aspects and features are also claimed and described.
