ADAPTIVE SENSOR ACTIVATION AND CONFIGURATION FOR POSITIONING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18353321 titled 'ADAPTIVE SENSOR ACTIVATION AND CONFIGURATION FOR POSITIONING

Simplified Explanation

- This patent application discusses aspects of sensor activation or deactivation for positioning a mobile device in a wireless communication network. - During a positioning session between the mobile device and a location server, trigger conditions are determined to activate or deactivate the reporting of sensor data from the mobile device to the location server. - The first trigger condition is for activating the reporting, while the second trigger condition is for deactivating the reporting. - The location server sends instructions to the mobile device based on the trigger conditions. - If the first trigger condition is met, the location server sends instructions to activate the reporting of sensor data. - If the second trigger condition is met, the location server sends instructions to deactivate the reporting of sensor data.


Original Abstract Submitted

Aspects of sensor activation or deactivation for positioning a mobile device in a wireless communication network are disclosed. These aspects include, during a positioning session between the mobile device and a location server, determining with the location server that a first trigger condition or a second trigger condition has been met regarding reporting, by the mobile device to the location server, of sensor data from one or more sensors of the mobile device, where: the first trigger condition may comprise a trigger condition for activating the reporting, and the second trigger condition may comprise a trigger condition for deactivating the reporting. Aspects further include sending, from the location server to the mobile device, a message may comprise either: instructions to activate the reporting responsive to determining the first trigger condition has been met, or instructions to deactivate the reporting responsive to determining the second trigger condition has been met.
