1. A mobile terminal in a mobile communication system, the mobile terminal comprising:
- location measurement circuitry configured to obtain location information;
a communication interface configured to obtain information of an identifier of an area in which the mobile terminal resides; and
control circuitry configured tocause the location measurement circuitry to obtain the location information in the case where the mobile terminal is not being operated while the mobile terminal is in an accelerated state, andcause the location measurement circuitry to obtain the location information (1) in the case where it is determined that some information is being input to an input interface of the mobile terminal and the identifier of the area in which the mobile terminal currently resides is different from an identifier of the area in which the mobile terminal resided in the past;
or (2) in the case where it is determined that the mobile terminal is a foldable type and the mobile terminal is not in a folded state and the identifier of the area in which the mobile terminal currently resides is different from the identifier of the area in which the mobile terminal resided in the past, whereinthe communication interface is configured to report the location information obtained by the location measurement circuitry to a server.

Abstract
A mobile terminal that obtains location information and information of an identifier of an area in which the mobile station resides. The mobile station causing the location information to be obtained in a case that the identifier of the area in which the mobile terminal currently resides is different from an identifier of an area in which the mobile terminal resided in the past. The mobile terminal then reports the location information to a server.
