<p>A location server (208) and a method for evaluating the location of a user equipment (UE) (102; 202) in relation to at least one geographical zone related to the UE, is disclosed. In addition, a location server (506, 706) and a method for processing of a zone-related service request, is disclosed. Also a method for provisioning cell- independent geographical zones is disclosed. Based on location information of the UE (102; 202), and zone information about a cell-independent geographical zone, it is determined whether the zone is overlapping the location of the UE (step 314). The cell- independent geographical zones can be provided using a zone provisioning protocol (ZPP). Cell planning is facilitated since the zones are per definition independent of defined cells. The development of location-based services is hence provided a promising springboard.</p> |
