Title: Rapport d'emplacement periodique efficace dans un reseau a acces radio
Inventor: EDGE STEPHEN
IPC: H04W4/029
Filed: 2006-06-21
Abstract: Un équipement utilisateur (UE) en communication avec un réseau à accès radio (RAN) envoie une entité réseau, (MSC/SGSN) une demande de rapport périodique de l'emplacement UE à une entité client. Après approbation de la demande, le MSC/SGSN envoie la signalisation RAN afin d'initialiser le rapport d'emplacement périodique pour UE. Le RAN peut demander un centre de positionnement (SAS) pour envoyer des données d'assistance à UE et coordonner, puis contrôler le rapport d'emplacement périodique, ou encore passer le contrôle au centre de positionnement. Pour chaque rapport d'emplacement, UE envoie l'information d'emplacement (mesures réalisées par UE ou estimation d'emplacement calculée par UE) à RAN. Le SAS calcule une estimation d'emplacement, si UE envoie des mesures. Le RAN envoie ensuite l'estimation d'emplacement pour UE à MSC/SGSN, qui transmet l'estimation d'emplacement à l'entité client.
