According to an embodiment, a distributed antenna system (DAS) is provided with functionality for determining the location of a mobile station within the DAS. The DAS may be of the type that includes a plurality of antennas located within a multi-floor building, each antenna radiating to define a respective coverage area in which the mobile station can communicate. The antennas are communicatively linked with a controller, and the controller communicates over an air interface with a radio access network so as to provide connectivity between the antennas and the radio access network. In operation, the system may determine that a given one of the antennas has received a strongest signal from the mobile station, and may transmit an indication of the geographic coverage area of the given antenna into the radio access network, as a representation of the location of the mobile station.
