METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ENHANCED INDOOR POSITION LOCATION WITH ASSISTED USER PROFILES
First Claim
1. A method of wireless communication, comprising:
- maintaining user profile information;
receiving a plurality of position locations;
correlating the received position locations to determine failed correlations;
determining blackout periods based on whether there is a gap in the received position locations;
obtaining location information for the failed correlations and the blackout periods;
updating the user profile information based on the obtained location information;
receiving an emergency notification; and
responding to the emergency notification based on at least one of the user profile information or an emergency position location received with the emergency notification.

Abstract
A method of wireless communication includes maintaining user profile information, receiving a plurality of position locations, correlating the received position locations to determine failed correlations, determining blackout periods based on whether there is a gap in the received position locations, obtaining location information for the failed correlations and the blackout periods, updating the user profile information based on the obtained location information, receiving an emergency notification, and responding to the emergency notification based on at least one of the user profile information or an emergency position location received with the emergency notification.
