Reporting of location information

An apparatus, comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one memory including computer program code;
• the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to:
• receive, by a user equipment from an eNodeB, configuration information indicating that a mode of reporting of location information by the user equipment should be adapted in response to the user equipment detecting a reference network entity in the vicinity of the user equipment, wherein the configuration information includes location reporting mode priority information indicating relative priorities of at least two modes of reporting of location information;
• subsequently detect, by the user equipment, a reference radio access network entity in the vicinity of the user equipment;
• and
• adapt, by the user equipment in response to detecting the reference radio access network entity within the vicinity of the user equipment, a mode of reporting of location information identifying or enabling identification of a location of the user equipment.

An apparatus, comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one memory including computer program code;
• the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to:
• cause transmission, by an eNodeB to user equipment being served by the eNodeB, of configuration information for causing the user equipment to adapt a mode of reporting of geo-location information identifying a location of the user equipment in response to detecting a reference radio access network entity in the vicinity of the user equipment, wherein the configuration information includes location reporting mode priority information indicating relative priorities of at least two location information reporting modes for the user equipment;
• receive, at the eNodeB, information from the user equipment identifying a reference radio access network access entity in the vicinity of the user equipment or information from the reference radio access network entity identifying the user equipment;
• and
• determine, at the eNodeB, a location of the user equipment based on the received information and information identifying a location of the reference radio access network entity or forwarding, by the eNodeB, the received information to enable determination of the location of the user equipment based on the forwarded information and information identifying the location of the reference radio access network entity.

An apparatus, comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one memory including computer program code;
• the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to:
• receive, by a user equipment location reporting configuration information, wherein the location reporting configuration information identifies at least two location information reporting modes for the user equipment, at least one reporting mode being associated with detection of a reference radio access network entity.

An apparatus, comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one memory including computer program code;
• the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to:
• transmit location reporting configuration information to a user equipment, wherein the location reporting configuration information identifies at least two location information reporting modes for the user equipment, at least one reporting mode being associated with detection of a reference radio access network entity by the user equipment.
