Location Continuity Service for Locating Mobile Devices Using Multiple Access Networks Including Wireless Telecommunication Networks

摘要

A location continuity application server described herein is configured to access from an access network a set of location data associated with a position measurement for a mobile device. The location continuity application server may also access from another access network another set of location data associated with another position measurement for the mobile device and combine the sets of location data to determine a location of the mobile device. Further, prior to accessing the set of location data, the location continuity application server may provide reference location data associated with a reference location of the mobile device to the access network to enable the access network to obtain the position measurement based at least on the reference location data. The location continuity application server may also access the set of location data and determine the location of the mobile device responsive to a request from an emergency service provider.

1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
accessing from a first access network a first set of location data associated with a first position measurement for a mobile device; accessing from a second access network a second set of location data associated with a second position measurement for the mobile device; and combining the first set of location data with the second set of location data to determine a location of the mobile device.
