Position estimation of a wireless terminal in a structure using base station signal information
First Claim
1. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having executable instructions stored thereon, the executable instructions being executable by a computer to perform a method comprising:
- receiving a wireless signal transmitted from a base station, the wireless signal including base station identification information;
receiving internal location information for a building, the internal location information indicating a location within the building;
accessing signal intensity information of the wireless signal received from the base station in response to acceptance of a predetermined user input operation after receiving the internal location information for the building; and
transmitting the signal intensity information, the base station identification information, and the internal location information, whereinthe signal intensity information is associated with the base station identification information and the internal location information in connection with a request for an estimated position for the location within the building, andthe signal intensity information is transmitted after the acceptance of the predetermined user input operation.

Abstract
A wireless terminal, method, and non-transitory computer-readable storage medium. The wireless terminal includes circuitry configured to receive a wireless signal transmitted from a base station; perform signal intensity measurement of the received wireless signal; receive, via a graphical user interface, section information that identifies a section of a building structure for which the signal intensity measurement is to be performed; and transmit measurement information acquired by the signal intensity measurement of the received wireless signal, base station identification information that indicates a base station of a transmission source of the wireless signal, and the section information. The measurement information is associated with the base station identification information and the section information. The circuitry is further configured to perform the signal intensity measurement of the received wireless signal in response to a predetermined user input operation that is received after the section information.
