A multi-standard indoor mobile radio access network having a centralized device is provided. In one embodiment of the present invention, a centralized device is configured to transmit a wake-up signal to a wireless device once the wireless device has entered a service area, wherein the wake-up signal triggers the downloading and/or opening of an application on the wireless device configured to determine whether a 911 call has been made. If a 911 call has been made, the application transmits a notification signal to the centralized device. In response thereto, the centralized device transmit location information of the wireless device to an emergency responder. The centralized device also transmits a 'ping' to the wireless device during predetermined periods of time in order to keep the application open and/or installed on the wireless device.

Multi-standard in building mobile radio access network

A multi-standard indoor mobile radio access network is provided. Preferred embodiments of the present invention operate in accordance with a plurality of radio heads and at least one gateway/router. In one embodiment of the present invention, each radio head is configured to use a signal received from a wireless device to detect a corresponding service provider. Each radio is also configured to detect a power level of the signal, as received. Data is then communicated to the gateway/router, including at least radio head identification numbers, z-axis information (e.g., as stored in each radio head, etc.), the channels used, service provider identifiers, and power levels (e.g., as received by each radio head). The gateway/router is then configured to use at least the power levels and z-axis information provided by the plurality of radio heads to determine a location (e.g., z-axis location, or floor) of the wireless device.
