ABSTRACT:
An existing network conversion element built to an existing standard is used to obtain the information needed to perform location-based services for a multi-technology wireless device operating in a foreign technology mode. A system includes a database relating temporary dialable numbers with corresponding equipment serving those numbers and a mobile position server in communication with the database. The mobile position server is operative to request and receive a temporary dialable number for a multi-technology wireless device operating in a foreign technology mode, utilize the database to obtain the identity of the equipment serving the wireless device from the temporary dialable number, and initiate appropriate location signaling to the serving equipment. Also, a method includes utilizing the temporary dialable number to determine the identity of the equipment serving the wireless device and obtaining the location of the device directly from the serving equipment.
