Radio Network Node and Location Server for Use in a Wireless Communication Network - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18554217 titled 'Radio Network Node and Location Server for Use in a Wireless Communication Network
The abstract describes a patent application for a radio network node configured for use in a wireless communication network. The node receives a request from a location server to report measurements for computing the location of a wireless device. If the node is unable to report the measurements, it transmits a message to the location server indicating the cause of the issue, such as the device moving to another node. The location server may then request the new node to report measurements for locating the device.
- The radio network node is designed to assist in locating wireless devices within a communication network.
- It receives requests from a location server to provide measurements for calculating the device's location.
- If unable to report measurements, it communicates the issue and cause to the location server.
- The location server can then request the new node where the device has moved to report measurements for locating the device.
Potential Applications: - This technology can be used in various wireless communication networks to improve location tracking of devices. - It can enhance the efficiency of location-based services and applications that rely on accurate device positioning.
Problems Solved: - Addresses the challenge of accurately tracking the location of wireless devices within a network. - Provides a solution for handling cases where devices move between different network nodes.
Benefits: - Improved accuracy in determining the location of wireless devices. - Enhanced reliability of location-based services and applications. - Efficient management of device mobility within a network.
Commercial Applications: Title: Enhanced Location Tracking Technology for Wireless Communication Networks This technology can be utilized in telecommunications companies, IoT networks, and location-based service providers to enhance location tracking capabilities. It can improve the user experience of location-based applications and services, leading to increased customer satisfaction and retention.
Prior Art: Further research can be conducted on location tracking technologies in wireless communication networks, specifically focusing on methods for handling device mobility between network nodes.
Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in location tracking technologies for wireless communication networks, including improvements in accuracy and efficiency in determining device locations.
Questions about Location Tracking Technology in Wireless Communication Networks: 1. How does this technology improve the accuracy of locating wireless devices within a network? 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this technology in large-scale communication networks?
Original Abstract Submitted
A radio network node () is configured for use in a wireless communication network (). The radio network node () receives, from a location server (), a request () for the radio network node () to report measurements usable to compute a location of a wireless device (). The radio network node () transmits, to the location server (), a message () that indicates the radio network node () is unable to report the measurements and that indicates a cause () of the radio network node () being unable to report the measurements. The cause () may be, for example, that the wireless device () has moved to another radio network node. Responsive to receiving the message (), the location server () may transmit, to the other radio network node to which the wireless device () has moved, a request () for that radio network node to report measurements usable to compute a location of the wireless device ().
