Location analytics employing timed fingerprint location information
First Claim
1. A system, comprising:
- a processor; and
a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising;
determining a location of a user equipment based on timed fingerprint location information, wherein the timed fingerprint location information represents a first granularity of location information and comprises a first differential timing measurement for a NodeB site pair comprising a first NodeB device and a second NodeB device and a second differential timing measurement for another NodeB site pair comprising a third NodeB device and a fourth NodeB device, and wherein the first differential timing measurement is correlated to a first set of location information for a first substantially hyperbola-shaped geographic region and the second differential timing measurement is correlated to a second set of location information for a second substantially hyperbola-shaped geographic region, to facilitate the determining the location of the user equipment based on the first set of location information and the second set of location information;
determining compliance data representing a compliance status for a location analytics rule based on the location of the user equipment; and
confirming the compliance status based on a subsequent location determined for the user equipment based on a second granularity of subsequent location information comprised in subsequent timed fingerprint location information, the second granularity being different than the first granularity.

Abstract
The disclosed subject matter provides for employing timed fingerprint location information in location analytics. Timed fingerprint location information can provide a location for a user equipment. The location of the user equipment can be compared to a location analytics rule related to the location of a user equipment. Where the location satisfies a condition of the location analytics rule, the user equipment can be associated with a compliance status. Compliance, or noncompliance, can initiate further action. Further action can include reporting the compliance status, verifying the identity of a user associated with the user equipment, enforcing the location analytics rule, etc. Enforcing the location analytics rule can include alerts, fines, reporting to an authority figure or agency, etc.

9. A method, comprising:
-
receiving, by a system comprising a processor, timed fingerprint location information associated with a user equipment; determining, by the system, a location of the user equipment based on timed fingerprint location information, wherein the timed fingerprint location information comprises a first differential timing measurement for a first NodeB site pair comprising a first NodeB device and a second NodeB device and a second differential timing measurement for a second NodeB site pair comprising a third NodeB device and a fourth NodeB device, and wherein the first differential timing measurement is correlated to a first set of location information for a first substantially hyperbola-shaped geographic region and the second differential timing measurement is correlated to a second set of location information for a second substantially hyperbola-shaped geographic region, to facilitate the determining the location of the user equipment based on the first set of location information and the second set of location information; and determining, by the system, compliance with a compliance metric of a location analytics rule based on the timed fingerprint location information, wherein an initial location determination of the user equipment is based on initial timed fingerprint location information representing a first granularity of location information, wherein the timed fingerprint location information further represents a second granularity of location information different from the first granularity, and wherein the compliance status is confirmed based on a subsequent location determination of the user equipment based on the second granularity represented by the timed fingerprint location information. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium having instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution, cause a system comprising a processor to perform operations, comprising:
-
receiving timed fingerprint location information associated with a user equipment, wherein the timed fingerprint location information comprises a first differential timing measurement for a NodeB site pair comprising a first NodeB device and a second NodeB device and a second differential timing measurement for another NodeB site pair comprising a third NodeB device and a fourth NodeB device, and wherein the first differential timing measurement is correlated to a first set of location information for a first substantially hyperbola-shaped geographic region and the second differential timing measurement is correlated to a second set of location information for a second substantially hyperbola-shaped geographic region; processing the timed fingerprint location information to determine a compliance with a location analytics rule based on a location of the user equipment determined from timing information associated with the user equipment and the timed fingerprint location information, wherein the location of the user equipment is determined from the timed fingerprint location information representing a first granularity of location information and updated timed fingerprint location information represents a second granularity of location information different from the first granularity; designating a status value based on the determining the compliance with the location analytics rule, wherein the status value is based on a subsequent location determination of the user equipment based on the second granularity of location information; and facilitating access to the status value by a component configured to enforce the compliance by way of an enforcement protocol. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
