Abstract: The invention relates to a radio network controller (RNC) for receiving a LOCATION_REPORTING_CONTROL message and analyzing a value of a request type information element received in the LOCATION_REPORTING_CONTROL message. The RNC directly determines requested location information for a user equipment (UE) if the request information element indicates sending location information as a direct response to the LOCATION_REPORTING_CONTROL message or the RNC determines the requested location information if the UE changes the service area if the request information element indicates sending location information at a change of service area by the UE. The RNC then sends a LOCATION_REPORT message comprising the location information and the request type information element to at least one control node.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for distinguishing between LOCATION_REPORT messages to avoid ambiguities. Therefore, a value of an information element of request type is returned by a radio network controller, depending on an intended receiver of the location information. A control node receiving the information element value analyses said value and determines the receiver depending on the result of said analysis.

Abstract: The invention relates to a radio network controller (RNC) for receiving a LOCATION— REPORTING— CONTROL message and analyzing a value of a request type information element received in the LOCATION— REPORTING— CONTROL message. The RNC directly determines requested location information for a user equipment (UE) if the request information element indicates sending location information as a direct response to the LOCATION— REPORTING— CONTROL message or the RNC determines the requested location information if the UE changes the service area if the request information element indicates sending location information at a change of service area by the UE. The RNC then sends a LOCATION— REPORT message comprising the location information and the request type information element to at least one control node.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods and arrangements in a telecommunication system to generate Interception Related Information IRI related to positioning activities involving a mobile subscriber/equipment MSA. The system provides information to an Intercept configuration unit ICU, collected from an Intercept Access Point IAP; MSC, GMLC that is associated to the monitored subscriber/equipment. The method comprises the following steps: receiving to the Intercept Access Point IAP; MSC, GMLC from the Intercept configuration unit ICU, a request to monitor the mobile subscriber/equipment MSA. Registration in the Intercept Access Point IAP; MSC, GMLC, of a positioning activity involving the monitored subscriber/equipment. Delivering information related to the positioning activity, from the Intercept Access Point IAP; MSC, GMLC to the Law Enforcement Agency LEA.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods and arrangements in a mobile telecommunication system to generate interception related information IRI, including geographical location of a monitored mobile subscriber/equipment. The system is configured to provide to an Intercept configuration unit ICU, information collected from an Intercept Access Point IAP; MSC. The system is also configured to proceed with a Network Induced Location Request NI-LR procedure, which method comprises the following steps: —Receiving to the Intercept Access Point from the Intercept configuration unit, a request to monitor the mobile subscriber/equipment, —Detecting in the Intercept Access Point of a specified Interception Related Information activity IRI involving the monitored subscriber/equipment, —The Intercept Access Point IAP; MSC initiates start of the Network Induced Location Request NI-LR procedure.

Abstract: The invention relates to the provision of deferred location reporting wherein the reporting is triggered by a trigger location change event. Trigger location change events are either related to a user of a cellular telecommunication network entering, leaving or changing an area, or to an area, which is entered or left by a user.

Abstract: A method is provided for positioning a target user equipment of a first subscriber within a network for cellular communications, the method comprising the steps of: at a service node connected to a GMLC, receiving a Mobile Originating Location Services invoke from a requesting User Equipment (UE) of a second subscriber, the invoke comprising a target identifier of the target UE; initiating a checking whether a requesting identifier associated with the requesting UE is comprised within a list of allowable identifiers of respective UEs which are allowed to position the target user equipment; and, in response to a determination that the requesting identifier is comprised within the list of allowable identifiers, positioning the target UE and returning location information resulting from the positioning to the requesting UE.

Abstract: The invention provides a method for the determination of a velocity of a user equipment by means of location services, wherein the velocity of a user equipment is calculated by a radio access network node.
