Patent ID: 7292864

Claim:
In a system comprising a wireless serving network, a location-determination system and a location-based service, wherein the location-based service has an identity, wherein the wireless serving network provides connectivity between a wireless communication device and the location-based service, and wherein the location-based service sends a position request to the location-determination system to seek a location of the wireless communication device, a method comprising: providing a rules engine in a communication path between the location-determination system and the location-based service; receiving into the rules engine a position response provided by the location-determination system in response to the position request; tailoring the position response at the rules engine in a manner dependent on the identity of the location-based service, so as to establish a tailored position response, wherein tailoring the position response in a manner dependent on the identity of the location-based service comprises (i) reading a location-based service identifier from the position request, (ii) selecting a position response template based on the location-based service identifier, and (iii) applying the position response template to tailor the position response; and sending the tailored position response along the communication path from the rules engine to the location-based service.
