Abstract

A wireless communication network system having one or more location servers (142) for outputting requested locations of commercially available mobile stations (140) based on CDMA, AMPS, NAMPS or TDMA communication standards, for processing both local and global mobile station location requests (140) via, e.g., internet communication (468) between a distributed network of location centers (142). The system uses a plurality of mobile station location technologies including two-way TOA and TDOA; pattern recognition; distributed antenna provisioning; GPS signals; angle of arrival; superresolution enhancements; and supplemental information from various types of base stations.
