Abstract
A system and method for measuring the quantity, type, transmission quality and visit history of mobile communication devices within a defined geographical area is disclosed herein. A data server is configured to receive new transmission data for mobile devices from each of a plurality of sensor devices and associate the new transmission data with a corresponding sensor device of the plurality of sensor devices. Sensor devices positioned within the venue are utilized to determine a geographical location of a mobile communication device based on a statistical analysis of received signal strength at each of the sensor devices.
