Abstract:
A wireless communication device sends positioning messages on the random access channels in two or more cells of a wireless communication network, where the messages exhibit one or more characteristics enabling the network to differentiate them as positioning messages rather than access messages ( 604 ). Correspondingly, the network uses the received messages as a basis for estimating timing advance values for the device with respect to the two or more cells ( 606 ), and it commonly links the cell-specific timing advance values to a device identifier included in the positioning messages by the device ( 608 ). The inclusion of the device identifier allows a positioning node to recognize the timing advance values as being associated with the same wireless communication device, for use in multilateration-based positioning estimation.

Claim (Index 52):
A method at a positioning node configured for operation in a wireless communication network, the method comprising:\n sending a positioning request towards the wireless communication device via the wireless communication network; receiving two or more timing advance values from one or more nodes in the wireless communication network, as determined for the wireless communication device with respect to two or more cells of the wireless communication network, said received timing advance values linked to cell identifiers of the two or more cells and a device identifier that uniquely identifies the wireless communication device to the positioning node for at least one positioning event; and determining from the linked device identifier that the two or more timing advance values are associated with the wireless communication device for the at least one positioning event; and carrying out a position determination for the wireless communication device, based on the two or more timing advance values.
