Application: Positioning system, access control system, and positioning method (Patent ID: US20240203185A1)
The patent filed by Alps Alpine Co Ltd. describes a positioning system that utilizes multiple antennas positioned overhead in a target area with a side entrance. The system calculates the distance between a communication device and the antennas based on signals transmitted bidirectionally at multiple frequencies. Additionally, it calculates the angle indicating the device's position relative to the antennas using phase differences in received signals. A determining part assesses whether the device is approaching the side entrance based on the calculated distance and angle. The system can be integrated into an access control system that includes authentication processes and gate locking mechanisms for enhanced security.
Furthermore, the system can store position data of the side entrance and use it in conjunction with distance and angle calculations to determine the device's proximity to the entrance. The access control system can execute authentication processes using device identifiers and unlock gates at the side entrance when specific conditions are met. After a set period following the device's exit through the side entrance, the gate automatically locks. The positioning method outlined in the patent involves the same distance and angle calculations to determine the device's approach to the side entrance, showcasing the versatility and applicability of the positioning system in various scenarios.
