==SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR 5G LOCATION SUPPORT USING SERVICE BASED INTERFACES - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18195325 titled 'SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR 5G LOCATION SUPPORT USING SERVICE BASED INTERFACES

==Simplified Explanation==

The patent application describes methods and techniques for supporting location services for user equipment (UE) in a Fifth Generation wireless network using a location server and service based interfaces (SBIs) and SBI service operations.

* The location server, known as a Location Management Function (LMF), can be located in either the serving Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) or the Home PLMN for a roaming UE.
* The LMF receives a location service request for the UE through an SBI and communicates with another entity in the network to obtain location information measured by that entity.
* Based on the received location information, the LMF determines the location of the UE.

== Potential Applications ==
* Enhanced location-based services for mobile applications.
* Improved emergency services, allowing accurate location information for emergency calls.
* Efficient fleet management and asset tracking systems.

== Problems Solved ==
* Providing accurate and reliable location information for user equipment in a wireless network.
* Enabling seamless location services for roaming user equipment.
* Facilitating communication between different entities in the network to obtain location information.

== Benefits ==
* Enhanced user experience with more accurate and reliable location-based services.
* Improved emergency response with precise location information for emergency calls.
* Increased efficiency in fleet management and asset tracking systems.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

Methods and techniques are described for supporting location services for a user equipment (UE) using a location server and service based interfaces (SBIs) and SBI service operations in a Fifth Generation wireless network. The location server may be, e.g., a Location Management Function (LMF). The LMF may be in either a serving Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) for a UE or in a Home PLMN for a roaming UE. The LMF may receive a location service request for the UE using an SBI and may communicate with another entity in the network, through a second entity and using an SBI, to obtain location information for the UE measured by the other entity. The LMF may determine a location for the UE based on the location information.
