Abstract: Briefly, in accordance with one embodiment, a method of transmitting signals is provided. Signal waveforms are transmitted from at least two respective sectors. The at least two respective sectors are from at least two different sets of a superset of sectors. The transmitted signal waveforms include signal waveforms at least nearly mutually orthogonal at least along a particular signal dimension. An advantage of such an embodiment, for example, is reduced signal interference.

Abstract: Techniques for sending and receiving broadcast information are described. In an aspect, broadcast metadata may be generated for broadcast information and may include location and time criteria used by terminals to filter the broadcast information. Each location and time criterion may include (i) a location criterion given by a target location and a presence or absence requirement and (ii) a time criterion given by a time period in which the location criterion applies. A terminal may receive the broadcast metadata prior to or with the broadcast information, obtain location and time criteria from the broadcast metadata, and filter the broadcast information based on the location and time criteria. The terminal may evaluate each location and time criterion by determining its location within a specified time period and determining whether its location is within or outside a specified target location, as indicated by the presence or absence requirement.

Abstract: Techniques for positioning access points and terminals in WLANs and other wireless networks are described. For access point positioning, measurements are obtained for at least one access point in a WLAN. The measurements may be based on transmission sequences (e.g., beacon frames) transmitted periodically by each access point. The measurements may be made by multiple terminals at different locations or a single mobile terminal at different locations. The location of each access point is determined based on the measurements and known locations of the terminal(s). For terminal positioning, measurements for at least one access point in a WLAN are obtained. The location of the terminal is determined based on the measurements and known location of each access point.; The measurements may be round trip time (RTT) measurements, observed time difference (OTD) measurements, time of arrival (TOA) measurements, signal strength measurements, signal quality measurements, etc.

Abstract: Techniques for transporting messages for location services (LCS) are described. A Mobility Management Entity (MME) may have a location session with an Evolved Serving Mobile Location Center (E-SMLC) to provide location services for a User Equipment (UE). The UE may exchange LCS-related messages with the E-SMLC to obtain location services. In an aspect, LCS-related messages exchanged between the UE and the E-SMLC may be encapsulated in Non-Access Stratum (NAS) messages and transported via the MME and a base station. In another aspect, a routing identifier (ID) may be used to associate messages exchanged between the UE and the MME with the location session between the MME and the E-SMLC for the UE. Each NAS message exchanged between the MME and the UE may include the routing ID, which may enable the MME to associate each NAS message from the UE with the location session between the MME and the E-SMLC.

Abstract: TECHNIQUES FOR SUPPORTING POSITIONING FOR TERMINALS IN A WIRELESS NETWORK ARE DESCRIBED. IN AN ASPECT, POSITIONING MAY BE SUPPORTED BY A LOCATION SERVER (130) THAT CAN RESIDE IN DIFFERENT ENTITIES. IN ONE DESIGN, THE LOCATION SERVER (130) MAY OBTAIN POSITIONING INFORMATION (E.G., MEASUREMENTS) FOR A TARGET DEVICE (110) VIA A COMMON POSITIONING PROTOCOL. THE LOCATION SERVER (130) MAY USE THE COMMON POSITIONING PROTOCOL REGARDLESS OF WHERE IT RESIDES AND MAY COMMUNICATE WITH OTHER ENTITIES VIA THIS PROTOCOL. THE LOCATION SERVER (130) MAY DETERMINE LOCATION INFORMATION (E.G., A LOCATION ESTIMATE) FOR THE TARGET DEVICE (110) BASED ON THE POSITIONING INFORMATION. IN ANOTHER ASPECT, POSITIONING MAY BE SUPPORTED BY TRANSPORTING MULTIPLE POSITIONING MESSAGES TOGETHER. IN YET ANOTHER ASPECT, POSITIONING MAY BE SUPPORTED BY TRANSPORTING A POSITIONING MESSAGE CONTAINING MULTIPLE PARTS DEFINED BY DIFFERENT ORGANIZATIONS. IN YET ANOTHER ASPECT, POSITIONING MAY BE SUPPORTED WITH SHARED MEASUREMENT DATA UNITS AND/OR SHARED ASSISTANCE DATA UNITS THAT MAY BE APPLICABLE FOR DIFFERENT POSITIONING METHODS.

Abstract: suporte a múltiplos protocolos de posicionamento. um terminal móvel e um servidor de localização de rede suportam vários protocolos de posicionamento de modo que uma primeira medição de posição do terminal móvel possa ser obtida com a utilização de um primeiro protocolo de posicionamento definido para uma primeira rede sem fio e uma segunda medição de posição do terminal móvel possa ser obtida com a utilização de um protocolo de posicionamento diferente definido para uma rede sem fio diferente durante a mesma sessão de localização. a primeira medição de posição e a segunda medição de posição podem ser então utilizadas juntas para determinar a posição do terminal móvel.

Abstract: Techniques for supporting triggered location services are described. In one design, at least one location related measurement for a terminal may be obtained and used to detect for a trigger event. For an equidistance triggered service, a trigger event may be declared if the distance traveled by the terminal exceeds a predefined distance. For a relative terminal to terminal triggered service, a trigger event may be declared if the terminal is inside or outside, or enters, or leaves a moving geographical target area defined by a reference terminal. For a velocity triggered service, a trigger event may be declared if the maximum velocity of the terminal exceeds a predefined velocity. For a time-distance-velocity combination triggered service, a trigger event may be declared based on distance traveled by the terminal, velocity of the terminal, and time since the last report. For all services, a report may be sent if a trigger event has occurred.
