Abstract: Techniques for supporting location services for a home Node B (HNB) and its user equipments (UEs) are disclosed. In an aspect, location services may be supported for a UE by having an HNB inter-work between user plane and control plane location solutions. In one design, the HNB receives a request for a location service for the UE and communicates (i) with a location server via the user plane location solution and (ii) with the UE via the control plane location solution to support the location service for the UE. The HNB inter-works between the user plane and control plane location solutions. In another aspect, a location server may be used to support assisted GNSS (A-GNSS) for HNBs and UEs. In one design, an HNB exchanges PCAP messages with the location server via an HNB GW and exchanges RRC messages with a UE to support a location service for the UE.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are presented for obtaining authorized access from a terminal to a discovered location server. The methods may include switching from a first network that does not support authenticated access from the terminal to a home location server to a second network that does support authenticated access from the terminal to the home location server. Authenticated access to the home location server may be obtained using the second network. Authorization for the discovered location server may then be obtained from the home location server. The terminal may then switch from the second network back to the first network. The terminal may then access the discovered location server using the first network based on the obtained authorization from the home location server.

Abstract: A large volume of location related information, e.g., assistance data or location information, is transferred in separate messages between a server and a target by segmenting the location related information into a plurality of messages. If the connection between the server and target is released prior to completion of the transfer of the location related information, the transfer is resumed by sending the remaining messages after connection is reestablished. Each message is sent after receiving an acknowledgement of receipt. Thus, both the server and target can control the flow of the transfer by delaying the sending of one or more messages or delaying the sending of the acknowledgements of receipt.

Abstract translation: 通过将位置相关信息分割成多个消息，大量的位置相关信息（例如辅助数据或位置信息）在服务器和目标之间的分离的消息中被传送。 如果服务器和目标之间的连接在完成位置相关信息的传送之前被释放，则在连接被重新建立之后通过发送剩余的消息来恢复传送。 每个消息在收到收到确认后发送。 因此，服务器和目标都可以通过延迟发送一个或多个消息或延迟发送接收确认来控制传送流。

Abstract: Techniques for supporting positioning for terminals in a wireless network are described. In an aspect, a message is prepared and transmitted with a message segment including a version of a protocol used to encode the message and a compatibility level associated with inter-operable protocol versions, wherein different compatibility levels indicate non-compatibility between protocol versions. In another aspect, a message is received with a message segment including a version of a protocol used to encode the message and a compatibility level associated with inter-operable protocol versions, wherein different compatibility levels indicate non-compatibility between protocol versions. The compatibility level included in the received message is compared to an internal compatibility level and a response message is prepared and transmitted with a message segment including the internal compatibility level.
