Abstract

See full text

Distributed communication systems provide location information to mobile terminals that may not be able to receive otherwise global positioning system (GPS) information from GPS satellites. Providing location information to clients inside a building or other location may make location based services, such as emergency (E911) services, possible based on the location information. The distributed communications system may be provided location information about its components through a number of techniques. Once the distributed communications system has the location information, such location information may be passed to clients.
