METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR SELECTING OPTIMAL SATELLITES FOR A-GPS LOCATION OF HANDSETS IN WIRELESS NETWORKS

摘要

A system and method for determining a set of satellites for which assistance data may be provided to a wireless device. A boundary for an approximate area in which the wireless device is located may be determined and one or more sets of satellites may be determined as a function of the boundary. An optimum set of satellites from the one or more sets of satellites may then be determined using a satellite selection function on the one or more sets of satellites at predetermined points substantially on the boundary.
