  • Publication number: 20170013522
    Abstract: A method and an apparatus for determining a location of a mobile device. The location of a mobile device is determined accurately according to information which includes call data records of the mobile device. By employing a partial ellipse integral model, two physical world factors are taken into consideration in reducing the location uncertainty in call data records. The factors include: spatiotemporal constraints of the device's movement in the physical world and the telecommunication cell area's geometry information, which increase the accuracy of determining the location of a mobile device.
