Abstract

The invention relates to a subscriber identity module (1-4, 2-2), to user equipment (1-2) comprising a subscriber identity module (1-4, 2-2) and to a communications system that it is adapted to receive location information from said user equipment (1-2). The subscriber identity module (1-4, 2-2) comprises contacts (2-10) for powering the module (1-4, 2-2) from the user equipment (1-2) power supply. The invention is known to the fact that the subscriber identity module (1-4, 2-2) comprises a GPS receiver (1-6, 2-4) and an antenna (1-8, 2-6).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a communication system, and more particularly to a module, user equipment, system and method for locating a user equipment in a communication system. Background technique [0002] The precise location of eg a GSM (Global System for Mobile communications) user equipment cannot be determined using information from the cellular network. This information allows positioning accuracy of only about 100-300 meters in rural areas and 50-100 meters in urban areas. For example, in the case of an emergency call, it is crucial to find out the exact location from which the call came so that help can be reached there as soon as possible. If the call is made from a mobile device that cannot be pinpointed, critical time is lost by rescue services. [0003] GPS (Global Positioning System) receivers can provide better accuracy, but they are expensive and not commonly carried and used by the general public. GPS receivers do not work rel...
