Hello 🙂
I am working on project where we want to use WiFi RTT for indoor navigation and I am looking for appropriate device which can handle such thing. Does any Ruckus AP support 802.11mc standart which implements FTM and so RTT?
Kind regards
Vladimir

Hi @Vladimir
Currently 802.11mc is not supported but we are currently working on it and planned in the SZ\vSZ 7.0 version.

hello.
I am working on an indoor positioning project.
My client company is planning to deploy RUCKERS' R series AP when constructing a building communication line.
Will the 'SZ\vSZ 7.0 version' you mentioned be released so that it can be used by updating the firmware on the AP that is already installed? Or will AP be released as a separate model?
And when do you expect it to be released?

Some Ruckus Wi-Fi APs respond to 802.11mc FTM RTT requests, but do not advertize this in the beacon frame. So you can use them, as long as you figure out what the offset/bias is in the result.
For some more information see https://people.csail.mit.edu/bkph/FTMRTT_aps#unadvertized
For sample video of Android app FTMRTT used in property with 113 Ruckus APs (OUI 94:b3:4f) see https://people.csail.mit.edu/bkph/movies/KSR_Pixel_5_screen-20240324-174934.mp4
(here the offset was -2.8 meters).
Follow up question: do any Ruckus APs support 802.11az (the next generation positioning (NGP)): https://standards.ieee.org/beyond-standards/newly-released-ieee-802-11az-standard-improving-wi-fi-lo...
