Original Abstract Submitted

Aspects presented herein may improve the positioning accuracy and latency of a positioning engine that receives at least one position constraint for assisting the positioning. A wireless device obtains an indication of at least one position constraint for a positioning engine. The wireless device detects whether the at least one position constraint exceeds an error threshold based on a set of PR residuals between the wireless device and at least one satellite. The wireless device excludes the at least one position constraint from a calculation at the positioning engine if the at least one position constraint exceeds the error threshold, or includes the at least one position constraint in the calculation at the positioning engine if the at least one position constraint is below the error threshold.
