METHOD OF PROVIDING LOCATION SERVICES IN WiMAX NETWORK
First Claim
1. A method of providing location services of a mobile station in worldwide interoperability for microwave access (WiMAX) network including base stations, comprising:
- at a serving base station of the mobile station, receiving a location service request of the mobile station;
at the serving base station, transmitting a scanning interval allocation response message (MOB-SCN-RSP) defined in a WiMAX wireless standard in response to the location service request;
at the serving base station, receiving a scanning result report message (MOB-SCN-REP) defined in the WiMAX wireless standard and transmitted by the mobile station in response to the scanning interval allocation response message (MOB-SCN-RSP); and
at the serving base station, transmitting a location service response upon receiving the scanning result report message (MOB-SCN-REP).
