1. A location trigger system for a location-based service (LBS), comprising:
- a mobile station (MS) embedding a location assistant (LAT) for detecting a location trigger event, the MS detecting the location trigger event by comparing a location identifier of the MS with a list of location identifiers of interest;
an LBS platform (LP) transmitting location trigger assisted information of a location trigger area to the MS, and processing the location trigger event received from the MS, the location trigger assisted information including the list of location identifiers of interest;
a location agent (LA) setting the location trigger to obtain location information of the MS; and
an LBS application (LBSA) connected to the LP, and receiving a customized LBS based on the location information of the MS in accordance with the location trigger,wherein the location trigger is processed distributedly by the MS and the LP.
