A location server (2) for a mobile telecommunications network (1), the location server (2) comprising at least one network interface (3) through which it is arranged to communicate with network nodes (4) of the mobile telecommunications network (1), and a processor (5) arranged to: receive a message containing information from which the position of a mobile device (6) of the telecommunications network (1) can be estimated; process the information to produce a mobile device (6) position estimate; send to at least one of the network nodes (4, 6) an output message containing the estimate; and quantize the information to have one of a plurality of indicative values, each of the values indicating a range of distances having upper and lower bounds, wherein, for at least some successive pairs of the indicative values, for indicative values indicating increasing distance, the difference between the upper and lower bounds increases, typically exponentially. |
