An Applications Processor () including a centralized database system is used in a wireless location system (WLS). The APsmay be used to manage resources in the WLS, including signal collection systems (SCSs) and TDOA location processors (TLPs). Each APcontains a database containing triggers for the WLS. The WLS can be programmed to locate only certain pre-determined types of transmissions. When a transmission of a pre-determined type occurs, then the WLS is triggered to begin location processing. Each APalso contains applications interfaces that permit a variety of applications to securely access the WLS. These applications may access location records in real time or non-real time, create or delete certain types of triggers, or cause the WLS to take other actions. Each APis also capable of certain post-processing functions.

Applications processor including a database system, for use in a wireless location system

A centralized database system is used in a wireless location system that determines the geographical locations of mobile wireless transmitters, the wireless location system including signal collection systems, location processors for processing digitized RF data provided by the signal collection systems, and a centralized database system for managing resources in the wireless location system. The centralized database system includes a computer, a database, and a plurality of software processes for managing the wireless location system, providing interfaces to external users and applications, and storing location records and configuration information.
