Mobile station position locating system
First Claim
1. A mobile station position locating system in which a plurality of base stations receive a radio wave transmitted from a mobile station, and which estimates a position of the mobile station based on a received power of the radio wave received by each base station and a position of the base station,wherein the mobile station includes a transmitting portion that transmits the radio wave having a predetermined frequency, andthe base stations each includes a receiving portion that receives the radio wave transmitted by the mobile station, and a received power measuring portion that measures a received power of the radio wave received by the receiving portion,the mobile station position locating system further comprising:
- a distance ratio calculating portion that calculates, based on a result of predetermined calculation of the received power measured by the received power measuring portion of each of the base stations constituting a base station pair which is a pair of the base stations, a distance ratio for every base station pair between the distance from one of the base stations constituting the base station pair to the mobile station and the distance from the other of the base stations constituting the base station pair to the mobile station,a solution set calculating portion that calculates for every base station pair a set of solutions realizing the distance ratios calculated by the distance ratio calculating portion, anda position calculating portion that determines a production set of a plurality of solution sets calculated by the solution set calculating portion to calculate, a solution belonging to the production set of the solution sets, as a mobile station existing position.

Abstract
A radio wave transmitted from a mobile station 10 is received in each base station 12, and, based on the received power measured by a received power measuring portion 38 of the base station, a distance ratio calculating portion 54 of a position locating server 14 calculates the difference in the received power between the paired base stations. Based on the difference in the received power, the distance ratio is calculated between the distance from one base station to the mobile station and the distance from the other base station to the mobile station. A locus creating portion 56 of the position locating server 14 creates a locus which is a sequence of points showing positions where the calculated distance ratio is realized. The position calculating portion 58 calculates an intersection of the loci for a plurality of base station pairs, thereby calculating a candidate for the mobile station.
