Abstract:
Systems and methods for managing activities among two or more mobile devices that are collocated include means for determining a set of tasks to be performed collectively by at least a first mobile device comprising a first set of subsystems and a second mobile device comprising a second set of subsystems, while the first and second mobile device are collocated during a period of time in the future; means for assigning a first task of the set of tasks to be performed by the first mobile device based on the first set of subsystems; and means for assigning a second task of the set of tasks to be performed by the second mobile device based on the second set of subsystems. The first and second sets of subsystems are different from one another with regard to at least one subsystem.
Abstract:
Methods for mobility indication of wireless Access Points (APs) are disclosed. An AP may determine mobility indication information, based, in part, on at least one of: configuration information on the AP pertaining to mobility; and/or wireless signal measurements associated with the AP, and/or captured images associated with the AP, and/or sensor measurements associated with the AP. The AP may transmit the mobility indication information for the AP. The mobility indication information may indicate that the AP is mobile and/or characterize the mobility. The mobility indication information may further include a request to remove information associated with the AP from location determination databases, location assistance databases, and/or base station almanacs. Disclosed methods also pertain to a User Equipments (UE), which may receive wireless signals with mobility indication information associated with an AP; and determine a suitability of the AP for determining the UEs location based on the received mobility indication information.
Abstract:
Example methods, apparatuses, and/or articles of manufacture are disclosed herein that may be utilized, in whole or in part, to facilitate and/or support one or more operations and/or techniques for selective crowdsourcing for multi-level positioning, such as positioning in a multi-level structure, for example.
Abstract:
A method of performing functions by proxy for a set of associated proximate devices is disclosed. In some embodiments, the method may comprise associating a set of user equipments (UEs), wherein upon determination that a first UE in the set is unavailable for performing a requested function, at least one alternate second UE in the associated set of UEs is selected, wherein the at least one second UE is proximate to the first UE and the at least one second UE is available for performing the requested function. The performance of the requested function on the at least one second UE is initiated.
Abstract:
Example methods, apparatuses, or articles of manufacture are disclosed herein that may be utilized, in whole or in part, to facilitate or otherwise support one or more operations or techniques for use in associating (tagging) a signal observation with a location tag, such as, for example, with a mobile communication device.
Abstract:
Disclosed are systems, methods and devices for providing positioning assistance data to a mobile device based, at least in part, on a location context identifier (LCI). In one particular implementation, a user may select from a one or more of candidate LCIs identified, for example, based on acquiring one or more signals from transmitters in range of the mobile device.
Abstract:
Various methods, apparatuses and/or articles of manufacture are provided which may be implemented for use by a mobile device to alter a scan operation. Various methods, apparatuses and/or articles of manufacture are provided which may be implemented for use by one or more electronic devices to determine one or more scan factors for use by a mobile device in altering a scan operation.
Abstract:
Various methods, apparatuses and/or articles of manufacture are provided which may be implemented in one or more electronic devices supporting mobile device positioning within an indoor environment. Tiered positioning assistance data (tiered-PAD) corresponding to an indoor environment may be generated and/or distributed. Mobile device positioning and/or navigation capabilities may be based, at least in part, on tiered-PAD corresponding to the indoor environment. Tiered-PAD may be provided to a plurality of mobile devices. A given mobile device may, for example, select applicable portion(s) of tiered-PAD to affect one or more positioning functions and/or the like which may be performed, at least in part, by the mobile device.

Abstract:
Various methods, apparatuses and/or articles of manufacture are provided for use by an electronic device to generate a recommended candidate position fix mode to a mobile device for use in a particular region of an environment. Such a candidate position fix mode may, for example, be selected from a plurality of wireless signal-based positioning modes comprising at least: a first wireless signal-based positioning mode based on first wireless signals transmitted by a terrestrial-based transmitting device, a second wireless signal-based positioning mode based on second wireless signals transmitted a satellite-based transmitting device, and a third wireless signal-based positioning mode based on a combination of the first wireless signals and the second wireless signals. In certain example implementations, assistance data indicative of at least the candidate position fix mode may be transmitted to the mobile device.
