Abstract
A telecommunications system and method is disclosed for defining location services in a simplified manner based upon whether the positioning request is an interactive request or a batch mode request. In order to initiate a positioning request, a Location Application (LA) must first register with at least one Mobile Location Center (MLC), define the service parameters specific for that LA and receive a Location Application Identifier Number (LAIN). Thereafter, the LA can send either an interactive or batch mode positioning request along with the LAIN. An interactive positioning request is a request to position a specific subscriber or group of subscribers immediately, while a batch mode positioning request is a request to position a subscriber or group of subscribers when a particular event defined by the LA occurs. Advantageously, the definition of location services is decoupled from issues, such as the point of origin of the request, the identity of the subscriber to be positioned and authorization options.

Claim
1. A telecommunications system for defining location services profiles within a cellular network, said telecommunications system comprising: a mobile location center within said cellular network, said mobile location 5 center having a database therein for storing location information; and a location node in communication with said mobile location center, said location node registering with said mobile location center and defining said location information stored within said database, said mobile location center assigning an identifier number to said location node, said location node sending a positioning 10 request containing said identifier number to said mobile location center.
2. The telecommunications system of Claim 1, wherein said positioning request is an interactive positioning request, said interactive positioning request including a Mobile Station International Subscriber Directory Number therein, said 15 Mobile Station International Subscriber Directory Number being associated with a mobile terminal to be positioned, said mobile terminal being in wireless communication with a mobile switching center, said mobile switching center being connected to said mobile location center. 20
3. The telecommunications system of Claim 1, wherein said positioning request is a batch mode positioning request, said batch mode positioning request having an event associated therewith, said event indicating to said mobile location center when to perform positioning of a mobile terminal in wireless communication with a mobile switching center, said mobile switching center being connected to said 25 mobile location center.
