Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for position determination and other operations. In one embodiment of the present invention, a mobile station uses wireless signals from a plurality of wireless networks (e.g., with different air interfaces and/or operated by different service providers) for position determination (e.g., for data communication, for obtaining time and/or frequency information, for range measurement, for sector or altitude estimation). In one embodiment of the present invention, mobile stations are used to harvest statistical data about wireless access points (e.g., the locations of mobile stations that have received signals from the wireless access points, such as from cellular base stations, wireless local area network access points, repeaters for positioning signals, or other wireless communication transmitters) and to derive location information (e.g., position and coverage area of the wireless access points) for the wireless networks from the collected statistical data.

Abstract: Example methods, apparatuses, or articles of manufacture are disclosed herein that may be utilized, in whole or in part, for determining background position information for the mobile station using one or more positioning techniques, such as signal metrics.

Abstract: Methods, apparatuses and articles of manufacture are provided which may be implemented, at least in part, in a mobile device and used to affect one or more motion models and/or the like based, at least in part, on one or more determined range rates for one or more wireless signals acquired from one or more terrestrial transmitters. Here, for example, a range rate may be determined based, at least in part, on a measured phase value and/or a measured Doppler value.

Abstract: An application executed within a mobile station to be triggered only by a network element, such as a mobile positioning center (MPC) or a Mobile Center (MC). The network element is coupled to a base station. The network element is responsible for authorizing an application that is either resident within the mobile station or that is run in a device that is resident elsewhere in the network. The mobile station communicates with the network element over a communication link through the base station and other infrastructure components. The mobile station will only respond to attempts to trigger particular operations (e.g., run particular applications) if the mobile station receives a short message services (SMS) message as defined by Interim Specification 637A (IS-637A) which is published by the Telecommunication Industry Association (TIA)/Electronics Industry Association (EIA). More specifically, that SMS message must include an SMS Teleservice Identifier that has a particular pre-assigned value.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods and devices for positioning operations based, at least in part, on measurements or observations of energy emanating from building infrastructure concealed in walls obtained a mobile device. In one implementation, the energy emanating from the building infrastructure in emanates in response to one or more signals injected into the building infrastructure.

Abstract: A method according to an embodiment obtains a list of peaks for each of a number of frequency hypotheses. Each peak has an energy result and corresponds to a code phase hypothesis. Embodiments include methods and apparatus that may be used in identifying a location of a signal (such as a GPS signal) in a two-dimensional search space. Location information may be further applied to operations such as signal acquisition, signal tracking, position location of a receiver, and timing operations such as the synchronization of one or more other processes.

Abstract: A method of signal reception according to one embodiment of the invention includes compensating for an estimated or measured Doppler shift during integration of a correlated signal. Such a method also includes determining a composite peak position and correcting this position based on the compensation.
