Abstract
Techniques are discussed herein for transmission of location information by a user equipment (UE) to other UEs. A UE receives Satellite Positioning System (SPS) signals and determines whether the SPS signals are reliable. The UE determines a location estimate to be transmitted to other UEs using the SPS signals if the SPS signals are determined to be reliable and using non-SPS information if the SPS signals are determined to be not reliable. The location information is transmitted to other UEs in a message that includes an indication of the source of information used to generate the location estimate. A UE that receives the message may determine its location estimate based, at least in part, on the indication of the source of information, e.g., by determining whether SPS signals are reliable based, at least in part, on the indication of the source of information received in the message.
