Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices are described for estimating delay difference between two receive chains of a mobile device. The mobile device receives a first signal from a base station using a first receive chain, and receives a second signal using a second receive chain from a common, remote timing source for the base station and the mobile device. In addition, the mobile device obtains a transmit delay parameter associated with the base station and estimates, based at least in part on the transmit delay parameter, an offset value corresponding to a difference between amount of time for the first signal to pass through the first receive chain of the mobile device and amount of time for the second signal to pass through the second receive chain of the mobile device. The mobile device may store the offset value for subsequent use in estimating its position.

Abstract: Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for mapping multiple antenna systems using crowdsourcing data are presented. One disclosed example method includes the steps of detecting a condition associated with transmission of a plurality of wireless signals that are indistinguishable in content using multiple antennas dispersed at different locations and indicative of a base station as a common transmitter; and in response to detecting the condition, identifying the base station as ineligible for providing signals for use with a range-based positioning technique.

Abstract: A method for assisting a mobile device to perform positioning measurements on positioning signals periodically transmitted by at least some of a plurality of cells in a wireless communication network includes receiving cell information. The cell information is measured or otherwise obtained by the mobile device and includes measurements/data pertaining to one or more of the plurality of cells in the wireless communication network. The method includes generating assistance data to include an assigned frequency channel number for use by the mobile device for performing the positioning measurements based on the received cell information. The assistance data is then sent to the mobile device.
