Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé pour acquérir l'emplacement d'un terminal dans un réseau Wi-Fi, un terminal, un dispositif de communication d'évolution à long terme (LTE) et un système. Le terminal est apte à transmettre, dans un réseau Wi-Fi, des informations d'emplacement du terminal à une passerelle de données de paquet évoluée d'un dispositif de communication LTE dans un réseau LTE, et de transmettre les informations d'emplacement à d'autres éléments de réseau LTE cibles du dispositif de communication LTE dans le réseau LTE par l'intermédiaire de la passerelle de données de paquet évoluée. Dans le procédé, le dispositif de communication LTE (tel qu'une GW PDN, PCRF et IMS) dans le réseau LTE est autorisé à acquérir les informations d'emplacement du terminal dans le Wi-Fi, permettant ainsi de faciliter la mise en œuvre d'applications pertinentes (telles que l'achèvement en nombre) nécessitant les informations d'emplacement du terminal, de faciliter également le lancement, par une porteuse, de services dépendant d'informations d'emplacement, tels que des services vocaux Wi-Fi, et d'enrichir des services pour le terminal ayant accès au Wi-Fi.
