Abstract: Techniques for providing access point (AP) vicinity information are disclosed. In one example, the techniques include determining a first set of vicinity information corresponding to signal values for an AP at a set of grid points for the coverage area of the AP, encoding the first set of AP vicinity information based at least on a difference between AP vicinity information values for adjacent grid points to generate a second set of AP vicinity information, and providing the second set of AP vicinity information to a device. In one example, the techniques include receiving, for a set of grid points, a first set of AP vicinity information that is compressed based at least on a difference between AP vicinity information values for adjacent grid points, and performing decompression to obtain a second set of AP vicinity information corresponding to signal values for an AP at the set of grid points.

Abstract: Techniques are discussed for supporting positioning with ambiguous wireless cells. An ambiguous cell may employ a Distributed Antenna System (DAS), one or more Remote Radio Heads (RRHs), repeaters or relays, or may broadcast the same Positioning Reference Signal (PRS) as another nearby cell. In example techniques, measurements of a radio source in an ambiguous cell (e.g. a DAS antenna element or RRH) may be used to identify the measured radio source. The measurements may be for the Observed Time Difference of Arrival (OTDOA) position method or the Enhanced Cell ID (ECID) position method. The determination of the measured radio source for an ambiguous cell may be used to improve a location estimate for a user equipment (UE).

Abstract: Systems, apparatus and methods for crowdsourcing measurements of wireless base stations, access points and/or other transmitters from a mobile device to a server are presented. A crowdsourcing request sent by a server to a mobile device may comprise control parameters and measurement parameters. Control parameters may determine when a mobile obtains and reports measurements and measurement parameters may determine which types of measurements a mobile device obtains. Control parameters may comprise trigger parameters for crowdsourcing activation, measurement, reporting and duration. Crowdsourcing may be instigated by a control server and reported to a different data server. Crowdsourcing may be anonymous and may comprise basic or advanced reporting.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) communicating with a radio access network (RAN) sends to a network entity (e.g., an MSC/SGSN) a request for periodic reporting of the UE location to a client entity. After the request is approved, the MSC/SGSN sends to the RAN signaling to initiate periodic location reporting for the UE. The RAN may request a positioning center (e.g., a SAS) to send assistance data to the UE. The RAN may coordinate and control the periodic location reporting or may pass the control over to the positioning center. For each location reporting, the UE sends location information (e.g., measurements made by the UE or a location estimate computed by the UE) to the RAN. The SAS computes a location estimate if the UE sends measurements. The RAN then sends the location estimate for the UE to the MSC/SGSN, which forwards the location estimate toward the client entity.
Abstract translation: 与无线电接入网络（RAN）通信的用户设备（UE）向网络实体（例如，MSC / SGSN）发送用于向客户端实体定期报告UE位置的请求。 在请求被批准之后，MSC / SGSN向RAN发送信令以发起针对UE的周期性位置报告。 RAN可以请求定位中心（例如，SAS）向UE发送辅助数据。 RAN可以协调和控制周期性位置报告，或者可以将控制传递给定位中心。 对于每个位置报告，UE向RAN发送位置信息（例如由UE进行的测量或由UE计算的位置估计）。 如果UE发送测量，则SAS计算位置估计。 RAN然后将UE的位置估计发送给MSC / SGSN，MSC / SGSN将位置估计转发给客户实体。

Abstract: Example methods, apparatuses, or articles of manufacture are disclosed herein that may be utilized, in whole or in part, to facilitate or support one or more operations or techniques for utilizing a reference signal for indoor positioning, such as for use in or with a mobile communication device, for example. In an implementation, a reference signal may be focused into a directed beam, for example using a phased antenna array, and rotated electronically through a sequence of directional angles in a horizontal plane. A mobile device may determine a most probable directional angle from one or more transmitters transmitting a directional beam, measure one or more parameters for each directional angle and determine a location estimate using, for example triangulation.

Abstract: A large volume of location related information, e.g., assistance data or location information, is transferred in separate messages between a server and a target by segmenting the location related information into a plurality of messages. If the connection between the server and target is released prior to completion of the transfer of the location related information, the transfer is resumed by sending the remaining messages after connection is reestablished. Each message is sent after receiving an acknowledgement of receipt. Thus, both the server and target can control the flow of the transfer by delaying the sending of one or more messages or delaying the sending of the acknowledgements of receipt.
