Abstract

Disclosed is a method for locating a mobile radio unit within a mobile radio communications network. The method provides for the calculation of network variables such as a Real Time Difference (RTD) between network elements, from measurements already available to the network from, for example, handovers between network elements. The method provides for the location of radio mobile units without having to synchronise network elements such as BTSs or LMUs.
