摘要： The location of a wireless mobile device may be estimated using, at least in part, one or more pre-existing Network Measurement Reports (“NMRs”) which include calibration data for a number of locations within a geographic region. The calibration data for these locations is gathered and analyzed so that particular grid points within the geographic region can be determined and associated with a particular set or sets of calibration data from, for example, one or more NMRs. Regions may be defined as a function of any number of parameters and respective predetermined ranges thereof in the NMRs. An intersection of these defined regions may be determined and the location of a mobile device may be estimated as a function of the intersection.

摘要： A signal is received from a mobile device as multiple data samples. The received signal includes a first component corresponding to a known reference signal and a second component corresponding to an unknown channel impairment or an unknown noise. A sequence of blocks is formed based on the received samples. The first component of the received signal corresponding to the reference signal is known to within a constant phase shift over each block. A plurality of function values are generated as a function of time, frequency, and phase, based on the received signal, corresponding to a plurality of times, a plurality of frequencies, and a plurality of phase sequences. A time, a frequency, and a phase sequence corresponding to an optimal value the function values are determined. The determined time is outputted as a time of arrival of the received signal.

摘要： A method of modifying calibration data used to geo-locate a mobile station located in an indoor environment is disclosed. When a mobile station is located indoors, the signal strength of signals received and/or transmitted by the mobile station have the tendency to be lower than the strength of the signals received by a mobile station located outdoors. As a result of these lower signal strengths, geo-location efforts which rely on signal strengths may result in unsatisfactory location accuracy. Modifying pre-existing calibration data obtained outdoors may provide a way to simulate indoor calibration data characteristics.

摘要： A system and method modifies calibration data used to geo-locate a mobile station. Calibration data measured via a calibration data collection device may contain errors due to the physical limitations of the collection device and/or the collection process. Any data collection device may produce some degree of signal degradation or drop-out. Dead reckoning provides a remedy for signal drop-out, however, it often produces data results that may be unsatisfactory to perform an accurate location estimate. To ensure the integrity of the collected calibration data, a data modification and/or data replacement algorithm may be implemented to enhance the accuracy of the collected data. In addition, current collection procedures used to generate a calibration database may be laborious, time-consuming and expensive. Simplifying the test and measurement equipment needed, and the procedures for obtaining calibration data may save time and expenses.

摘要： A system and method of determining calibration data at non-calibrated location points is disclosed. A mobile station may be geo-located at most locations, if not all locations, within communication range of one or more serving and/or neighboring base stations of a mobile network. Calibration data may be collected and stored in memory via a data collection procedure. Known calibration data for locations proximate to the mobile station may be necessary when attempting to geo-locate the mobile station. A geographical region may be calibrated via a standard calibration data collection procedure, however, various obstacles, such as, buildings, mountains, ponds etc. may inevitably create deficiencies in the calibration data for one or more areas of the region. Certain techniques may be applied to estimate the calibration data of areas that have not been properly calibrated.

摘要： A novel system and method for a network overlay geolocation system operating in a host wireless communication system with repeaters is disclosed. Embodiments of the novel system and method enable a wireless communication system to determine if signals being received by system receivers arrive directly from a target mobile appliance or if the signals are passing through or via a repeater. In an embodiment, the system's repeaters use a co-channel AM Golay Hadamard sequence multiplied by an uplink signal to watermark the repeated signal. The system uses the known AM Golay Hadamard sequences of the repeaters and the waveform of the received uplink signal to detect whether a repeater has operated on the signal and which repeater operated on the uplink signal. Embodiments of the novel system and method provide system management data and can be used to provide more accurate geolocation of mobiles served by repeater stations.

摘要： The disclosure generally relates to techniques for time acquisition, synchronization and location estimation when the GPS signal condition deteriorate or when the signal is unavailable. In one embodiment, the disclosure relates to a processor for detecting clock error of a wireless location sensor (WLS) in a communication network having several wireless sensors, the processor programmed with instructions for determining clock error of an asynchronous WLS. The instructions include identifying a first WLS having asynchronous clock and a second WLS having synchronous clock; directing each of the first and the second WLS to detect a broadcast transmitted from a transmission station of known location and report an actual time of arrival at each of the first and the second WLS; computing an expected time of arrival of the broadcast at the first WLS as a function of the distance between the first WLS and the second WLS; and determining a clock error at the first WLS as a function of the expected time of arrival and the actual time of arrival of the broadcast at the first WLS.
