Abstract: Methods, systems, devices and computer program products for executing a predetermined routine including one or more location determination modes to determine a geographic position, i.e., the location of a wireless communication device. In certain aspects, the predetermined routine may be configured to adjust the Quality of Service (QoS) for one or more of the location determination modes implemented in the routine. Based on the pre-configuration of the routine, adjustment of the QoS of one or more location determination modes may occur as a matter of course or the routine may be configured to adaptively adjust the QoS based on conditions, such as network conditions, environmental conditions and the like, existing at the point in time in which the location determination mode is executed.

Abstract: Methods, systems, devices and computer program products are presented for identifying a location determination mode based on execution of a mode-selection routine in response to a received location determination request. In certain aspects, identifying a location determination mode may involve sequencing through a plurality of modes until a successful location determination results or until the end of the sequence is reached. In other aspects, selecting a location determination mode may involve determining one or more conditions affecting a location determination mode, and identifying an available mode based on the determined conditions. In this regard, according to some aspects, location determination is performed dynamically in that selection of a location determination mode is carried out for each location request and may take into account current conditions affecting one or more location determination modes.
