AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing methods for determining the location of a User Equipment (UE) in a network environment face challenges such as dependence on line-of-sight conditions, inconsistent accuracy, and increased power consumption, especially in environments with dense network deployments and varied terrain.

Method used

A method and system that processes Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) and Timing Advance (TA2) values from serving and neighboring cells to determine the location of a UE, calculating mean distances to improve accuracy and mitigate anomalies in signal strength and timing data.

Benefits of technology

The solution provides enhanced accuracy in determining the location of a UE, especially in challenging environments, by leveraging RSRP and TA2 values to calculate mean distances, thereby improving the reliability of location estimates.

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a method and a system for determining a location of a UE in a network environment The method encompasses: receiving, at a transceiver unit of a network node, a location request of the UE; processing, by a processing unit of the network node, a plurality of network parameters received from at least one network cell based on the location request; determining, by the processing unit of the network node, one or more locations of the UE based on each of the processed plurality of network parameters; calculating, by the processing unit of the network node, one or more distances between the determined one or more locations of UE and at least one network cell; calculating, by processing unit of the network node, a mean distance between UE and at least one network cell based on calculated one or more distances to determine location of UE.
