Position system and method for subscribers in the wireless local area network
First Claim
1. A user positioning system for Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN), comprising more than one User Equipment (UE) and a WLAN access part, characterized in that this system further comprises a positioning management subsystem for acquiring position information of WLAN users and providing the desired user position information to an application client which requests position information to the positioning management subsystem;
- wherein the positioning management subsystem is connected with both of the UEs and the application client, and the positioning management subsystem further comprises;
a management unit, for controlling information interaction process inside the positioning management subsystem and that between the positioning management subsystem and the outside; and
a positioning information detection unit connected with said managing unit, for acquiring user'"'"'s position information and detecting change of user'"'"'s position information.

Abstract
The present invention discloses a user positioning system for Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN), comprising more than one User Equipment (UE) and a WLAN access part, and further comprising a positioning management subsystem for acquiring position information of WLAN users and providing the desired user position information to an application client which requests position information to the positioning management subsystem. Here, the positioning management subsystem is connected with both of the UEs and the application client. The positioning management subsystem further comprises a management unit for controlling information interaction course inside the positioning management subsystem and that between the positioning management subsystem and the outside, and a positioning information detection unit connected with said managing unit and used for acquiring user'"'"'s position information and detecting change of user'"'"'s position information. A method for implementing user positioning with the above system is disclosed also in the present invention. User positioning function in WLAN can be implemented with this system and method, and a high user positioning precision can be provided.
