LOCATION SERVICE CONTINUITY IN CASE OF MOBILITY PROCEDURES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18312671 titled 'LOCATION SERVICE CONTINUITY IN CASE OF MOBILITY PROCEDURES
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes measures for ensuring continuity of location services during mobility procedures in a mobile network.
- The first network entity in the mobile network receives a message indicating the completion of a mobility procedure for a terminal.
- The first network entity checks if there is an ongoing location service session for the terminal.
- If there is an ongoing location service session, the first network entity sends a message to a second network entity responsible for providing location services for the terminal, indicating the completion of the mobility procedure.
- This ensures that the location service session remains uninterrupted during mobility procedures in the mobile network.
Original Abstract Submitted
There are provided measures for location service continuity in case of mobility procedures. Such measures, for example, comprise, at a first network entity handling connection and mobility management tasks in a mobile network, receiving a first message indicative of completion of a mobility procedure with respect to a terminal in said mobile network, determining whether there is an ongoing location service session for said terminal, and transmitting, if there is said ongoing location service session for said terminal, a second message indicative of completion of said mobility procedure with respect to said terminal towards a second network entity configured to expose a location service for said terminal.
