  1. Example of matching the expected and observed data in terms of contact detection and contact-triggered GPS location acquisition. The results refer to the first scenario, as for Table 2 (one mobile logger M1 and two fixed loggers L1 and L2, power 3, see also Fig. 2), and specifically to the results obtained for the mobile logger. The recorded events depend on the comparison of expected and observed events
