Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method for calculating a position estimate of a mobile station (MS) includes collecting in the MS position estimate information (PEI) transmitted by a location node. At some point, the MS generates PEI parameters which include information from which the location node can be located or identified. The MS generates the PEI parameters based upon the PEI transmitted by the location node. Once generated, the MS sends the PEI parameters to a position determination entity. The PEI parameters permit calculation of the position estimate of the mobile station.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A method for calculating an estimate of a position of a mobile station, comprising: collecting in a mobile station, position estimate information (PEI) transmitted by a plurality of location nodes in one or more PEI messages carried on at least one of a common channel or a dedicated channel, wherein the PEI in the one or more PEI messages includes a location node identification and longitude and latitude information of the location node of the pluralit…
