Abstract
In an example, a set of training fingerprints may be accessed, in which each of the training fingerprints specifies an access point of a plurality of access points to which a mobile device made a successful connection, a relative signal strength of the connection to the access point, and a cellular signal strength of a cellular tower near the mobile device when the successful connection to the access point was made. Level counts of the relative signal strengths of the connections to the access points corresponding to the cellular signal strengths of the cellular tower may be cumulated from the set of training fingerprints. The cumulated level counts of the relative signal strengths of the access points may be ranked.
