  • Patent number: 7254401
    Abstract: A method and system for determining a location of a user equipment using RTT measurements from a connected node B and RTT measurement of other node Bs which are not connected to the user equipment. The radio network controller of a network measures RTT of a connected node Bs and then measures RTT of non connected node Bs. Based on the RTT measurement, the distances of the user equipment from each node B is determined. Circles having radii equal to the distances of the user equipment from the nodes are used to determine the user equipment location.

  • Publication number: 20050018758
    Abstract: The invention relates to a rake receiver in a radio system comprising means for receiving a spread spectrum signal in a radio system, a correlator for forming an impulse response that represents, on the time domain, delay components of a user signal contained in the spread spectrum signal. The rake receiver comprises means for measuring, from the formed impulse response, a delay spread of delay components that are significant for reception of the user signal, and means for determining the length of a measuring window of one or more correlators by means of the measured delay spread of the user signal.

  • Patent number: 6681099
    Abstract: A method of determining the location of a user equipment includes determining a round trip time for downlink from at least three nodes to a user equipment, determining the transmission timing delay at the user equipment for the round trip time of each of the three nodes, and determining a distance from each of the at least three nodes using the round trip time and the transmission timing delay.
