Claims
- 1. A method for causing generation of calibration data for a wireless network wherein position determination of a handset is performed, the network including a Mobile Switching Center (MSC) and a Position Determination Device (PDD), the method comprising:
receiving a phone call from the handset via the MSC; sending a first position request message to the PDD in response to the received phone call; receiving a position response message from the PDD; sending a second position request message to the PDD in response to the same received phone call and the received position response message; continuously sending a plurality of subsequent position request messages to the PDD in response to the same received phone call; terminating the sending of a plurality of subsequent position request messages, when a termination trigger is received from the MSC; and sending a call termination message to the MSC in response to the received termination trigger.
- 2. The method of claim 1, further comprising causing the generation of output data for use in network calibration.
- 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the termination trigger is a call termination message from the MSC.
- 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the termination trigger is release of the received phone call.
- 5. The method of claim 1, further comprising generating a synthesized audio feedback.
- 6. A method for causing generation of calibration data in a wireless network including a Mobile Switching Center (MSC), and a Position Determination Device (PDD) to determine position of a handset, the method comprising:
receiving a trigger from the MSC; sending a position request message to the PDD in response to the received trigger; receiving a position request response message from the PDD; continuously sending subsequent position request messages to the PDD in response to the same received trigger, until a termination command is received; terminating the sending subsequent position request messages, when the termination command is received; and causing the generation of output data for use in network calibration.
- 7. The method of claim 6, wherein the trigger is generated by a call origination message from the MSC.
- 8. The method of claim 6, wherein the trigger is generated by a received call from the handset.
- 9. The method of claim 8, further comprising generating a synthesized audio feedback.
- 10. The method of claim 6, wherein the termination command is a call termination message from the MSC.
- 11. The method of claim 8, further comprising sending a call termination message to the MSC in response to the received termination command
- 12. The method of claim 9, wherein the termination occurs when the received call from the handset is released.
- 13. The method of claim 12, further comprising sending a call termination message to the MSC upon the release of the call origination message from the MSC.
- 14. The method of claim 6, wherein the termination command is generated after a predetermined number of subsequent position request messages are sent to the PDD.
- 15. A system for causing generation of calibration data for a wireless network wherein position determination of a handset is performed, the network including a Mobile Switching Center (MSC) and a Position Determination Device (PDD) comprising:
means for receiving a phone call from the handset via the MSC; means for sending a first position request message to the PDD in response to the received phone call; means for receiving a position response message from the PDD; means for sending a second position request message to the PDD in response to the same received phone call and the received position response message; means for continuously sending a plurality of subsequent position request messages to the PDD in response to the same received phone call; means for terminating the sending of a plurality of subsequent position request messages, when a termination trigger is received from the MSC; and means for sending a call termination message to the MSC in response to the received termination trigger.
- 16. The system of claim 15, further comprising means for causing the generation of output data for use in network calibration.
- 17. The system of claim 15, wherein the termination trigger is a call termination message from the MSC.
- 18. The system of claim 15, wherein the termination trigger is release of the received phone call.
- 19. The method of claim 15, further comprising generating a synthesized audio feedback.
- 20. A system for causing generation of calibration data in a wireless network including a Mobile Switching Center (MSC), and a Position Determination Device (PDD) to determine position of a handset comprising:
means for receiving a trigger from the MSC; means for sending a position request message to the PDD in response to the received trigger; means for receiving a position request response message from the PDD; means for continuously sending subsequent position request messages to the PDD in response to the same received trigger, until a termination command is received; means for terminating the sending subsequent position request messages, when the termination command is received; and means for causing the generation of output data for use in network calibration.
- 21. The system of claim 20, wherein the trigger is generated by a call origination message from the MSC.
- 22. The system of claim 20, wherein the trigger is generated by a received call from the handset.
- 23. The system of claim 22, further comprising generating a synthesized audio feedback.
- 24. The system of claim 20, wherein the termination command is a call termination message from the MSC.
- 25. The system of claim 22, further comprising means for sending a call termination message to the MSC in response to the received termination command
- 26. The system of claim 23, wherein the termination occurs when the received call from the handset is released.
- 27. The system of claim 26, further comprising means for sending a call termination message to the MSC upon the release of the call origination message from the MSC.
- 28. The system of claim 20, wherein the termination command is generated after a predetermined number of subsequent position request messages are sent to the PDD.
