Patent ID: 8248233

Claim:
A method comprising: obtaining location information associated with a remote device; processing the location information using a processor, wherein processing the location information includes determining if the remote device is mobile; configuring a filter such that at least one parameter indicates that the remote device is mobile if it is determined that the remote device is mobile, wherein the filter is a Kalman filter, and wherein the at least one parameter includes a process noise covariance and a measurement noise covariance; configuring the filter such that the at least one parameter indicates that the remote device is approximately stationary if it is determined that the remote device is not mobile; and applying the filter to the location information to generate a filtered location estimate, the filtered location estimate being arranged to estimate a location of the remote device, wherein configuring the filter such that the at least one parameter indicates that the remote device is mobile if it is determined that the remote device includes determining when an approximately maximum speed of the remote device is above a threshold speed, wherein when the maximum speed is above the threshold speed, the process noise covariance is set to a first value and the measurement noise is set to a second value.
