Position determination using wireless local area network signals and television signals

An apparatus comprising:

• first receiving means for receiving a wireless television signal;
• first measuring means for generating a measurement of the wireless television signal;
• wherein a position of the apparatus is determined based on the measurement of the wireless television signal;
• second receiving means for receiving a wireless local area network (WLAN) signal;
• and
• second measuring means for generating a measurement of the WLAN signal;
• wherein a position of a transmitter of the WLAN signal is determined based on the position of the apparatus and the measurement of the WLAN signal.

A method comprising:

• receiving a wireless television signal at a receiver;
• generating a measurement of the wireless television signal;
• wherein a position of the receiver is determined based on the measurement of the wireless television signal;
• receiving a wireless local area network (WLAN) signal;
• and
• generating a measurement of the WLAN signal;
• wherein a position of a transmitter of the WLAN signal is determined based on the position of the receiver and the measurement of the WLAN signal.
