Extended triggered position method and device
First Claim
1. A triggered location method, comprising:
- pre-specifying information of a third party that requires location notification of a target SET;
sending, by a location server, location information of the target SET to the third party, wherein the location information of the target SET is sent periodically after the location information of the target SET is obtained according to periodically triggered calculation of a location of the target SET, or when an area event triggering condition is met,wherein the pre-specifying information of the third party that requires the location notification of the target SET further comprises;
for a SET-initiated triggered location, specifying the third party in a trigged location start message sent from the target SET to the location server or specifying the third party in private setting of the target SET;
orfor a network-initiated triggered location, specifying the third party in a Mobile Location Protocol Triggering Location Report Request (MLP TLRR) message sent from a Security User Plane Location (SUPL) agent to the location server, and making, by the location server, the setting to instruct notifying the third party of the location information via a triggered location start message that carries the information in the MLP TLRR message.

Abstract
An extended triggered location method and device is provided. The device includes the following: a location calculating unit to calculate location of the target terminal and determine the location information, and a third party location reporting unit to send the location information of the target terminal to the third party terminal periodically or only when the area triggered condition is sufficed. With the present invention, the third party terminal can obtain the location information of the target terminal periodically or receive the notice of the target terminal'"'"'s entry into/exit from a target area, in accordance with the principles of periodical location or area trigger location. Thereby, the invention supplies new location service application and satisfies the subscriber'"'"'s demand for different location service applications.
