Global navigation satellite system
First Claim
1. A method of communication between a location server and a mobile station, comprising:
- transmitting a measure position request message from the location server to the mobile station, wherein the measure position request message comprises;
(a) first method information representing positioning methods for a first navigation satellite system (NSS);
(b) second method information representing positioning, methods for a second NSS and corresponding to the positioning methods for the first NSS;
(c) first assistance information representing assistance data for the first NSS; and
(d) second assistance information representing assistance data for the second NSS and corresponding to the assistance data for the first NSS.

Abstract
Each of a first and a second navigation satellite system (NSS) are adapted to operate according to a first and a second specification, respectively, and each includes a first and a second plurality of satellite vehicles (SVs), respectively. Each of the first and the second plurality of SVs are adapted to be identified by a first and a second plurality of unique corresponding identifications (IDs), respectively. A processor is adapted to receive and identify a first plurality of corresponding signals transmitted from the first plurality of SVs in response to the first plurality of unique corresponding IDs. The processor is adapted to receive and identify a second plurality of corresponding signals transmitted from the second plurality of SVs in response to the second plurality of unique corresponding IDs. The processor is adapted to determine position location information in response to receiving and identifying the first plurality of corresponding signals and the second plurality of corresponding signals.
