Abstract
Devices, systems, and methods for gathering, calculating and sending positioning information at a user device to one or more networks. In a first implementation, a user device transforms pseudorange information relating to terrestrial beacons into GNSS pseudorange information. In a second implementation, a user device sends position information using GNSS information elements. In a third implementation, a user device sends position information using non-GNSS information elements.

1-20. (canceled)
A method for determining position data used to estimate a position of a receiver, the method comprising:
- determining a first set of estimated distances between a receiver and each of a plurality terrestrial transmitters based on positioning signals transmitted by each of the terrestrial transmitters;
- and
- determining an estimated location of the receiver, wherein the estimated location is based on the first set of estimated distances.
One or more non-transitory computer usable media embodying computer readable program code adapted to be executed to implement a method for determining position data used to estimate a position of a receiver, the method comprising:
- determining a first set of estimated distances between a receiver and each of a plurality terrestrial transmitters based on positioning signals transmitted by each of the terrestrial transmitters;
- and
- determining an estimated location of the receiver, wherein the estimated location is based on the first set of estimated distances.
A system for determining position data used to estimate a position of a receiver, the system operable to:
- determine a first set of estimated distances between a receiver and each of a plurality terrestrial transmitters based on positioning signals transmitted by each of the terrestrial transmitters;
- and
- determine an estimated location of the receiver, wherein the estimated location is based on the first set of estimated distances.
