Is it possible to force Mikrotik to determine the position of the connected person?

Question

WiFi

Public hotspot in the park. The point hits outside the park for the time being. Smart asses appeared with uptime of 10 hours or more. You need to understand where the signal source is. Does Mikrotik have mechanisms for determining the position of a client point?
preferably with visualization.

Answer 1

- kill everyone who hangs longer than n-hours
- ban hands on the mac'u
- adjust the power so that the dot does not hit outside the park
- use not omnidirectional antennas, but sector ones, naturally facing not towards freeloaders outside the
park will give a location I do not really understand. Maybe you will go to call all the apartments and look into the eyes with a heavy look? Cellular networks will not give you such accuracy in client positioning.

Answer 2

No.
Most likely, the radiation pattern of your router's antenna is circular in the horizontal plane. That is, even the azimuth cannot be determined.
If it is necessary to find exactly the location of the client, then we can assume the use of a directional antenna (for differentiation by azimuth) and a traffic analyzer (for differentiation by MAC addresses).

is possible but difficult. Judging by everything in the OS itself, you can collect data on client signals from several antennas - then these are calculations that should no longer be done on Mikrotik, most likely. Cisco has ready-made solutions to your question - although they are very conditional. there is an error of 10m or more.
