ESTIMATING ACCESS TERMINAL LOCATION BASED ON UPLINK SIGNALS

摘要

A location of an access terminal is estimated based on uplink signals that a plurality of femto cells receive from the access terminal. The transmit power of the access terminal may be adjusted in some cases to facilitate the reception of signals at the femto cells during a location determination operation. In some embodiments, a location of an access terminal is estimated based on relative path loss values derived from the signals received by the femto cells.
