Abstract: Systems, apparatus and methods for a mobile device and a base station almanac server to throttle crowdsourcing information are presented. The crowdsourcing information is used to improve a location of a base station in a base station almanac. A portion of the base station almanac is provided to a mobile device. For example, the mobile device may identify its current cell and request the base station almanac. The mobile device records crowdsourcing information to identify, for each particular base station of at least one base station, a cellular identifier for the particular base station, optional ranging information between the particular base station and the mobile device, and an independent position of the mobile device. The independent position of the mobile device may be formed from global navigation satellite system (GNSS) or station signals independent of the at least one base station.

Abstract: Techniques for publishing location information associated with a non-geotagged transceiver are disclosed. A method for publishing a position of a non-geotagged transceiver in a wireless communication system includes determining a first position of the non-geotagged transceiver based on a periodic neighbor list, determining a second position of the non-geotagged transceiver based on an accumulated neighbor list, determining if the first position and the second position agree, publishing a third position if the first position and the second position agree, such that the third position is determined based on the union of the periodic neighbor list and the accumulated neighbor list, and resetting the accumulated neighbor list if the first and second position do not agree.

Abstract: A level 3 (L3) sparse network almanac (SNA) is generated using data from a base station almanac with information for a plurality of base stations. The information for base stations includes cell identifiers that include an L3 region code that is one layer above a cell tower identification level. Cell boundaries are determined from the base station information. The cell boundaries are used to estimate a region of coverage for the L3 SNA, which may be stored in a database. For example, region points may be generated from the cell boundaries, and used to estimate the region of coverage for the L3 SNA. The region of coverage may be determined, e.g., as a minimum enclosing circle or other similar techniques. The larger of an estimated region size parameter, e.g., a radius of a circle, and a default size may be used for the region of coverage.
