20140342755 | GEO-REFERENCE BASED POSITIONING OF A MOBILE DEVICE - A method of determining a location of a mobile device includes: detecting, at the mobile device, at least one Radio Frequency transmitter; receiving information associated with a number of Radio Frequency transmitters located within a geographical, area, the number of Radio Frequency transmitters being a subset of all Radio Frequency transmitters located within the geographical area, the information being decodable to provide global locations and identifiers of the number of Radio Frequency transmitters; comparing an identifier associated with the at least one detected Radio Frequency transmitter with the global locations and identifiers of the number of Radio Frequency transmitters; and determining the location of the mobile device within the geographical area; wherein the information is received in a reduced format. | 11-20-2014 |
20130181866 | AUTONOMOUS ORBIT PROPAGATION SYSTEM AND METHOD - A method of predicting a location of a satellite is provided wherein the GPS device, based on previously received information about the position of a satellite, such as an ephemeris, generates a correction acceleration of the satellite that can be used to predict the position of the satellite outside of the time frame in which the previously received information was valid. The calculations can be performed entirely on the GPS device, and do not require assistance from a server. However, if assistance from a server is available to the GPS device, the assistance information can be used to increase the accuracy of the predicted position. | 07-18-2013 |
20120256790 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MANAGING EPHEMERIS REQUESTS FROM CLIENT DEVICES - A system and method for reducing peak loads on a network, includes: a server in communication with a plurality of GPS receivers, the receivers sending requests for an ephemeris to the server when a time of ephemeris (TOE) for a previous ephemeris expires; and the ephemeris received by the receivers being adjusted by the addition of a value to the TOE of the ephemeris, the value being randomly adjusted to a 16 second interval between 16 seconds and 30 minutes. | 10-11-2012 |
20120249368 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DETERMINING A POSITION OF A GNSS RECEIVER - A method of determining a position of a GNSS receiver includes: receiving, at the GNSS receiver, information from at least two GNSS satellites and an estimated location area from a non-GNSS positioning application, determining candidate pseudoranges corresponding to candidate correlation peaks determined based on the information received from the at least two GNSS satellites; determining possible positions of the GNSS receiver using the candidate pseudoranges and the estimated location area; determining a best possible position of the GNSS receiver from the possible positions; and setting the best possible position as the position of the GNSS receiver; wherein when multiple candidate correlation peaks corresponding to one of the at least two GNSS satellites are determined, the estimated location area is usable to reduce the number of candidate correlation peaks prior to candidate pseudoranges being determined. | 10-04-2012 |
