At this WiMAX LBS network architecture, the defined processing messages end to end of baseline manuscript flow process as shown in Figure 2.Its step is as follows:
201 MS or LBS client are initiated positioning service, can send locating request message to location-server LS by positioning client terminal or MS, and the message between positioning client terminal and the location-server does not define in this standard;
202 LS and authenticated/authorized/charging (being designated hereinafter simply as AAA) are mutual, authenticate the inquiry with security information.
203 202 complete successfully after, carry out authorization check in the LS to MS and positioning client terminal;
204 because CSN connects a plurality of ASN networks simultaneously, and LS need look for a service ASN at MS (the being designated hereinafter simply as target MS) place that is positioned, and transfers to the LC that is positioned at service ASN GW and handle;
205 find the service LC of target MS after, LS sends the positioning reporting request to service LS;
206 carry out the position deterministic process of ASN inside;
After 207 206 successful execution are finished, can obtain the positional information of target MS, LC reports this locating information to LS;
208 LS send location response message to Location Request side (MS or positioning client terminal), return the actual position information of target MS;
209 LS send metering data to accounting server and upgrade, the professional needed expense of this LBS of deduction from requestor's account, and this process is an optional process, for some particular request, as emergency services, Lawful Interception etc., do not need to pay, thereby do not need to carry out this step yet.
