A method for communication for calculating location information indicating the geographic location of a Femtocell , the method comprising: performing by one or more processors and/or circuits in said Femtocell : performing power measurements on a base station and/or one or more neighboring base stations in an associated radio access network; generating measurement reports using said power measurements; transmitting said generated measurement reports over a broadband IP network to a location server coupled to an associated mobile core network to determine the actual location of the Femtocell using said generated measurement reports; and receiving location information indicating the geographic location of said Femtocell from said location server over said broadband IP network ; wherein said received location information indicating the geographic location of said Femtocell includes one or more reference positions corresponding to base stations detected by said Femtocell ; and said location server identifies said one or more reference positions corresponding to said base stations detected by said Femtocell from a reference database based on said measurement reports received from said Femtocell ; the method further comprising: receiving said identified one or more reference positions corresponding to said base stations detected by said Femtocell from said location server over said broadband IP network ; calculating said location of said Femtocell using said received one or more reference positions corresponding to said base stations detected by said Femtocell and said power measurements; and transmitting said calculated location of said Femtocell to said location server , wherein said location server utilizes said calculated location of said Femtocell to update said reference database . performing power measurements on a base station and/or one or more neighboring base stations in an associated radio access network; generating measurement reports using said power measurements; transmitting said generated measurement reports over a broadband IP network to a location server coupled to an associated mobile core network to determine the actual location of the Femtocell using said generated measurement reports; and receiving location information indicating the geographic location of said Femtocell from said location server over said broadband IP network ; wherein said received location information indicating the geographic location of said Femtocell includes one or more reference positions corresponding to base stations detected by said Femtocell ; and said location server identifies said one or more reference positions corresponding to said base stations detected by said Femtocell from a reference database based on said measurement reports received from said Femtocell ; the method further comprising: receiving said identified one or more reference positions corresponding to said base stations detected by said Femtocell from said location server over said broadband IP network ; calculating said location of said Femtocell using said received one or more reference positions corresponding to said base stations detected by said Femtocell and said power measurements; and transmitting said calculated location of said Femtocell to said location server , wherein said location server utilizes said calculated location of said Femtocell to update said reference database . receiving said identified one or more reference positions corresponding to said base stations detected by said Femtocell from said location server over said broadband IP network ; calculating said location of said Femtocell using said received one or more reference positions corresponding to said base stations detected by said Femtocell and said power measurements; and transmitting said calculated location of said Femtocell to said location server , wherein said location server utilizes said calculated location of said Femtocell to update said reference database . <EOS>
