Mobile terminal location method and mobile terminal location device

Abstract

The invention discloses a mobile terminal location method and a mobile terminal location device. The mobile terminal location method comprises the steps of acquiring identification information of base stations around a mobile terminal to be located, inquiring corresponding base station position information according to the identification information of the base stations, and confirming the position of a to-be-located mobile terminal according to the inquired base station position information. By means of the technical scheme, the location problem of the mobile terminal under the situation without global positioning system (GPS) location conditions is solved. In addition, the invention further provides an automatic collection method for base station position information. Thus, labor cost for collecting base station position information is reduced, collection efficiency and comprehensiveness for base station position information are improved, and a non-mobile network operator can also provide location service based on base stations.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of communication technology, in particular to a mobile terminal positioning method and device. Background technique [0002] Mobile terminal positioning refers to obtaining the location information (latitude and longitude coordinates) of the mobile terminal through a specific positioning technology. There are two traditional positioning technologies for mobile terminals: one is based on GPS, and the other is based on mobile base stations. Among them, the former uses communication satellites to perform real-time positioning around the world, which has high positioning accuracy, but requires the mobile terminal to have a GPS module; the positioning accuracy of the latter largely depends on the distribution of base stations and the size of the coverage area. Sometimes the positioning error is large, but when the mobile terminal does not have a GPS module or the GPS module cannot work (for example, the mobile ter...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] For mobile operators, it is very convenient to know the actual geographical location of each base station in the mobile network, so as to realize the positioning of mobile terminals, but for third-party service providers, they do not know the base stations of the mobile operator network The location information of the base stations needs to be collected manually, which puts forward higher requirements for manpower input. In practical applications, the number of base stations is large and widely scattered, and it is very difficult to collect the location information of the base stations in an all-round way, which leads to The solution of base station positioning is difficult to implement
