摘要:
A route engine can be configured to receive route data that characterizes a request for driving directions to a destination. The route engine can also be configured to determine a plurality of travel routes to the destination and to estimate a predicted travel time for each of the plurality of travel routes to the destination. The estimation can be based on environmental data that characterizes environmental conditions that affect traffic flow along the plurality of travel routes. The route engine can further include determining a likelihood that each predicted travel time for each of the plurality of travel routes is accurate.

A follow-me application can be configured to generate a follow-me identifier (ID) that uniquely identifies a particular route traveled by a computing device executing the follow-me application. The follow-me application can also be configured to determine route data for the particular route traveled. The route data characterizes turn-by-turn directions to facilitate travel along the particular route by another computing device.

An ALI/ESME steering gateway bridges the nationwide ALI/ESME network notes (or PSAPs) with the GMLC/MPCs of various different XPC networks. The steering gateway provides a unified interface between the PSAP/ALI network and positioning centers (GMLC/MPC/VPCs). Using the steering gateway, an E911 service provider accesses positioning centers (GMLC/MPC/VPC) of any XPC network. This access by the ALI to the positioning center is accomplished with any type of interface, irregardless of the protocol type. The connectivity of each virtual communication path between ALIs and PSAPs is managed. The ALI/ESME steering gateway also provides translation of the protocols between the two ALI-MPC interface sets (inbound and outbound). The ALI/ESME steering gateway also consolidates (or “de-duplicates”) any/all duplicated requests from a same ALI or PSAP for the same emergency call so that only one request is then sent to the destined positioning center within the relevant network.

A location verifier can be configured to receive a location report of a target mobile device, wherein the location report includes data characterizing a location for the target mobile device. The location verifier can also be configured to receive a list of mobile devices that are within a predefined proximity of the target mobile device. The location verifier can further be configured to interrogate each mobile device in the list of mobile devices for a list of detected devices. Each device in the list of detected devices can be detected through peer-to-peer communications.

A wireless device Location Services Agent (LSA) provides location functions such as reporting locations to a Location Agent Management Module (LAMM) function in a location services gateway (LSG). The LSA provides a consistent location protocol for providing single shot, periodic triggers and area event triggers. Actual position determination is performed by the native techniques supported by the handset. Location is setup via a Location Agent Management Module (LAMM) component of a Location Services Gateway (LSG) communicating with the LSA. The LSA provides for agent upgrade; SET (handset) registration to the LAMM; Single Shot location determination and conveyance to the LAMM; Periodic Triggered location; Area Event Location; and Privacy Notification and Verification. The LSA interfaces with the LAMM component of the LSG to initialize location requests, and interfaces with external location servers for actual position determination.
摘要:
A technique evaluates overlapping request intervals, and from them determines a temporal reporting interval that satisfies requirements for all that overlap. The temporal reporting interval represents a temporal trigger used to best support multiple triggers on the same target, without modification or support by the target mobile. Disclosed embodiments relate to an example of location requests wherein multiple users, by chance, request location triggered services on the same target mobile during the same time period. To minimize the usage of mobile and network resources, the present invention reduces the number of active triggers on a target mobile subjected to multiple requests (e.g., location requests from multiple tracking applications).

摘要:
The number of messages required in networks where both location and presence services are deployed may be reduced, by retrieving presence data from messages otherwise intended to provide only location information. Thus, information determined in a location service scheme is utilized to provide a presence service as well. A location server requests mobile subscriber (MS) information from a Core Network (CN) Node (i.e. HLR, MSC, etc.) that can be used in determining the Location of the MS. A single message aggregates retrieval of information for two services, specifically, for both location and presence.
