Abstract: Techniques are discussed herein for efficiently providing wireless emergency alerts (WEA) to a mobile device. The techniques include broadcasting a warning message from a base station in a wireless network within a cell for the base station and including an interior cell or exterior cell indication and a geographic area description for an external cell. A receiving mobile device may then display the warning message to a user either unconditionally when an interior cell is indicated or after verifying the mobile device is located within the geographic area for an exterior cell. The wireless network may determine interior versus exterior cell status by determining interior cells to be wholly within the geographic area and exterior cells to be partly within the geographic area.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method and apparatus enabling positioning processes performed by user equipment. The method may include initiating a voice call over a first wireless communications network using a first radio access technology (RAT). The method may also include a connection between the user equipment and a second wireless communications network using a second RAT being placed into an idle state. The method may also include participating in a control plane positioning process with the second wireless communications network during the voice call over the first wireless communications network.

Abstract: Techniques for supporting positioning are described. In an example implementation, a method for use in determining a position of a mobile station is provided, wherein a network-based computing device receives a message from a mobile station, the message indicating an identity of a transmitter device from which the mobile device has received at least one signal; and identifies at least one civil location estimate based at least in part on the message; the at least one civil location estimate representing an estimated location of the mobile device.

Abstract: A dual SIM mobile terminal, such as a Dual SIM Dual Active (DSDA) mobile terminal, connects to a network and performs a user plane or control plane positioning session through the network. When the positioning session is originated by the mobile terminal, either SIM card may be used to connect to its associated network. When the positioning session is originated by another entity in the network, either SIM card may be used for the positioning session. When the mobile terminal connects to a network for an emergency call using either SIM card and an emergency positioning session is performed through the network, the emergency positioning session is permitted only during the emergency call and an emergency callback period and permitted only on a subscription on which the emergency call originated, and no non-emergency positioning sessions with either SIM card is permitted during the emergency positioning session or emergency call.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are presented for use in a terminal to access a discovered location server. The methods may include in response to a determination that a first network does not support authenticated access from the terminal to a home location server, obtaining authenticated access to the home location server using a second network that does support authenticated access to the home location server by the terminal. In response to obtaining authorization for the discovered location server from the home location server, the terminal may access the discovered location server using the first network.

Abstract: Techniques for supporting location services in a user plane location architecture such as Secure User Plane Location (SUPL) are described. In an aspect, a terminal informs a location server of service capabilities of the terminal. The location server uses the service capabilities to request only location services supported by the terminal and to avoid requesting unsupported location services. The terminal generates a message containing its service capabilities and sends the message via a user plane, e.g., SUPL. The location server receives the message, obtains the service capabilities of the terminal, and stores these service capabilities for future network-initiated location sessions with the terminal. The location server determines whether a location service is supported by the terminal based on the service capabilities of the terminal. The location server communicates with the terminal via the user plane for the location service if supported by the terminal.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are presented for obtaining authorized access from a terminal to a discovered location server. The methods may include switching from a first network that does not support authenticated access from the terminal to a home location server to a second network that does support authenticated access from the terminal to the home location server. Authenticated access to the home location server may be obtained using the second network. Authorization for the discovered location server may then be obtained from the home location server. The terminal may then switch from the second network back to the first network. The terminal may then access the discovered location server using the first network based on the obtained authorization from the home location server.
