CONTROL PLANE SOLUTION FOR LOCATION SERVICE TO SUPPORT WIRELESS ACCESS BASED UPON MOBILE ORIGINATED LOCATION REQUEST

摘要

Techniques for supporting a control plane solution for location services and positioning are described. In an aspect, an Evolved Serving Mobile Location Center (E-SMLC) may communicate with a Mobility Management Entity (MME) to support location services and positioning for a UE. In one design, the E-SMLC may receive a location request from the MME, perform a positioning procedure with the UE in response to the location request, and send a location response to the MME after completing the positioning procedure.
