“…The programming language used for the scripts operating basically in Linux based operating systems is python version 3. The operation of the first modified script implementing a linear algorithm for discovering wireless networks involves the following basic steps [2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,16,14,19]:…”

“…In the first mode of operation, it is typical for hosts to connect to each other. And in the second mode, the hosts connect to a central running device such as access point [2,3,4,5,6,7,9,14,15,18,19]. In practice, several basic modes are used to scan wireless networks.…”

“…With mobile phones becoming proxies for human presence, network resources have been exploited to investigate users' mobility [1]. Spatio-temporal mobility datasets are nowadays acknowledged as a common tool to study users' trajectories: e.g., mobile phone records [2], WiFi [3], [4], and BLE data [5]. Most require access to users' devices, network infrastructure, or volunteer recruiting, while some lack scalability.…”

In this paper, we propose the first framework that introduces the concept of the user's bounded trajectory. We propose to leverage the signal strength of users' public WiFi probe requests collected from measurements of multiple deployed WiFi sniffers. First, we investigate and characterize errors in RSSI-based radial-distance (between the user and each sniffer) estimation. Then, we approximate such radial distances leverage and deduce bounds associated with a user's position. Finally, we infer a user's bounded trajectory using the spatiotemporal bounds of users' locations over time. We guarantee the bounds to enclose a user in space and time, with 95% confidence and a 10% margin of error. Using real-world and large-scale synthetic datasets under heterogeneous contexts and wireless conditions, we infer trajectories with bounds' width of less than 10m in 70% of cases with users' inclusiveness close to 100%.
