Abstract

Disclosed are techniques for wireless positioning. For example, a computing device can determine, based on a device being within the indoor environment, an updated horizontal uncertainty for the device is equal to an average of measurement errors of signals from satellite vehicles (SVs). The computing device can determine external positioning assistance data for the device has a reliability greater than one of a first reliability threshold or a second reliability threshold. The computing device can determine a number of the SVs of the SVs is greater than or equal to a first threshold number of SVs. The computing device can determine, based on the number of SVs being greater than or equal to the first threshold number of SVs, position(s) for the device based on the updated horizontal uncertainty for the device and a horizontal uncertainty for the device from the external positioning assistance data for the device.
