A system and method of providing satellite assistance data to a mobile device without using a reference network. A request may be transmitted to a plurality of mobile device requesting that ones of the devices transmit a portion of a navigation data message received from one or more satellites to a location determining system. Navigation data message portions may be recorded and transmitted from the ones of the plural mobile devices to the location determining system. These navigation data message portions may then be compiled by the location determining system, and assistance data provided to a mobile device as a function of the compiled navigation data message portions.
A method of providing satellite assistance data to a mobile device, comprising the steps of:
In a method for providing satellite assistance data to a mobile device, the method comprising receiving a location request from the mobile device at a location determining system, the improvement comprising providing assistance data to the mobile device in response to the location request without information from a satellite reference network.
In a method for providing satellite assistance data to a mobile device, the method comprising receiving a location request from the mobile device at a location determining system, the improvement comprising providing assistance data to the mobile device in response to the location request as a function of compiled navigation data message bits received from a plurality of mobile devices.
A system for providing satellite assistance data to a mobile device, comprising:
In a method for providing satellite assistance data to a mobile device, the method comprising receiving a location request from the mobile device at a location determining system, the improvement comprising providing assistance data to the mobile device in response to the location request as a function of compiled navigation data message bits received from a plurality of mobile devices and navigation data message bits received from a satellite reference network.
A method of generating a database of signals received from a plurality of mobile devices to provide satellite assistance data to mobile devices in a communications network, comprising the steps of:
