ASSISTED GLOBAL NAVIGATION SATELLITE SYSTEM ALGORITHM ENHANCEMENT WHEN NO SERVING CELL IS FOUND - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18042006 Titled 'ASSISTED GLOBAL NAVIGATION SATELLITE SYSTEM ALGORITHM ENHANCEMENT WHEN NO SERVING CELL IS FOUND'

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an invention related to positioning services. In this invention, a wireless device sends a message to a location management network node requesting assistance data. The message includes the identification of neighboring cells. The wireless device then receives a response from the network node, which includes assistance data. This assistance data includes satellite measurement information for the wireless device, which is based on the identified neighboring cells. The network node is configured to receive the request message from the wireless device and send a response message with the assistance data.


Original Abstract Submitted

Apparatus and methods related to positioning services. In one embodiment, a wireless device (, ) sends a request assistance data message comprising at least one neighbor cell identification, ID, to a location management network node (); and receive a provide assistance data message comprising assistance data, the assistance data including satellite measurement information for the wireless device and the satellite measurement information being based at least in part on the at least one neighbor cell ID. In one embodiment, a location management network node () is configured to receive a request assistance data message comprising at least one neighbor cell ID from a wireless device (, ); and send a provide assistance data message comprising assistance data, the assistance data including satellite measurement information for the wireless device (, ) and the satellite measurement information being based at least in part on the at least one neighbor cell ID.
