Abstract
Examples disclosed herein may relate to transmitting almanac information associated with a subset of wireless transmitters to a mobile station. The subset of wireless transmitters may be determined, at least in part, by determining expected contributions of one or more wireless transmitters to a future navigation operation for the mobile station.
Claims28
A method for developing almanac information, the method comprising:
- determining a subset of wireless transmitters from a plurality of wireless transmitters, based, at least in part, on a proximity to a route of a mobile station and an expected contribution for each of the plurality of wireless transmitters;
- and
- identifying the almanac information for the subset of wireless transmitters.
A computing platform for developing almanac information, the computing platform comprising:
- a transceiver;
- and
- a processor, coupled to the transceiver, wherein the processor:
- determines a subset of wireless transmitters from a plurality of wireless transmitters, based, at least in part, on a proximity to a route of a mobile station and an expected contribution for each of the plurality of wireless transmitters;
- and
- identifies the almanac information for the subset of wireless transmitters.
An apparatus for developing almanac information, the apparatus comprising:
- means for determining a subset of wireless transmitters from a plurality of wireless transmitters, based, at least in part, on a proximity to a route of a mobile station and an expected contribution for each of the plurality of wireless transmitters;
- and
- means for identifying the almanac information for the subset of wireless transmitters.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium including program code stored thereon, comprising:
- program code to determine a subset of wireless transmitters from a plurality of wireless transmitters, based, at least in part, on a proximity to a route of a mobile station and an expected contribution for each of the plurality of wireless transmitters;
- and
- program code to identify almanac information for the subset of wireless transmitters.
