OPTIMIZING BATTERY LIFE AND NETWORK RESOURCES DURING POSITION LOCATION TRACKING SCENARIO

摘要

An apparatus and method for optimizing battery life and network resources during position tracking is disclosed. The position of a target being tracked is compared with a predefined geofence boundary. If the position of the target is far from the geofence boundary, position fix of the target is calculated using low quality of service (QoS) parameters. If the position of the target is not far from the geofence boundary, position fix of the target is calculated using high quality of service (QoS) parameters.
