ABSTRACT:
A positioning system includes a positioning device with a local antenna. One or more remote antennas are also connected to the device. The system selects one or more antennas to use in determining a position based at least in part on an orientation of the device. Other factors which may be used in selection include: a particular environment of the device, manual override, signal quality, and a stage in a workflow process.
