Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
The present invention relates to location/position-based context awareness for devices and mobile terminal devices, respectively. In particularly, the present invention relates to an infrastructure entity performing the location/position-based context awareness for a portable terminal device. According to the present invention an infrastructure entity and a method operable therewith for serving distance-dependent context information relating to a defined environment is provided. For instance, terminal/object distances are determined in accordance with a position of a portable terminal, each position of a plurality of objects and a position of an infrastructure entity, which is adapted to serve the aforementioned distance-dependent context information. Context information, which is associated with each of the plurality of object, is provided for being selected. Context information is selected from provided context information on the basis of the determined terminal/object distances. The selected context information is finally transmitted to the portable terminal for being processed thereon.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A method comprising: causing, at least in part, on an apparatus, storage of context information associated with a predefined environment that is associated with the apparatus, wherein said apparatus handles said context information, and said context information is centrally administered by a central server: determining a position of a mobile terminal device when said mobile terminal is located within a coverage area of said apparatus; selecting sai…
