This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17911522 titled 'POSITIONING SYSTEM, WIRELESS BASE STATION APPARATUS, AND POSITIONING METHOD

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a positioning system that includes a wireless base station device, relay devices, and a positioning device.

  • The system allows for communication between a wireless terminal and the wireless base station device.
  • The relay devices are used to relay signals between the wireless terminal and the wireless base station device.
  • The positioning device estimates the position of the wireless terminal based on the first signal received by the wireless base station device.
  • The estimation of the wireless terminal's position also takes into account the position of the relay devices and the wireless base station device.


Original Abstract Submitted

A positioning system according to an aspect of the present invention includes a wireless base station device that communicates with a wireless terminal; one or more relay devices that relay a signal between the wireless terminal and the wireless base station device; and a positioning device that estimates a position of the wireless terminal on the basis of a first signal received by the wireless base station device from the wireless terminal via a first relay device, which is one of the one or more relay devices, a position of the one or more relay devices, and a position of the wireless base station device.
