Method and apparatus for enhanced indoor position location with assisted user profiles

摘要

A method of wireless communication includes maintaining user profile information, receiving a plurality of position locations, correlating the received position locations to determine failed correlations, determining blackout periods based on whether there is a gap in the received position locations, obtaining location information for the failed correlations and the blackout periods, updating the user profile information based on the obtained location information, receiving an emergency notification, and responding to the emergency notification based on at least one of the user profile information or an emergency position location received with the emergency notification.

主权项

1. A method of wireless communication, comprising:
receiving, from a user equipment (UE), a plurality of position locations of a user, each position location associated with a time period, the receiving occurring at a location away from the UE; maintaining, remotely from the UE, user profile information associated with the UE based at least in part on the position locations and associated time periods; associating a first time period with a location when the first time period corresponds to an unknown location; updating the user profile information based on the association of the first time period with the location; receiving an event trigger from the UE; and estimating, upon receiving the event trigger, a current location of the user based at least in part on the user profile information when a position of the user is not received.
