Abstract
A method for associating an identification stored in a mobile terminal with a location, particularly a seat, includes receiving a piece of information indicating a first time at which a previously unoccupied location is occupied by a person, the occupancy of the location being acquired by a sensor associated with the location. A piece of information indicating a second time at which the movement of the mobile terminal is received which implies that, if the mobile terminal were carried along by a person, the person carrying the terminal would occupy a location, the movement being acquired by a sensor in the mobile terminal. A relationship is determined between the first time and the second time. Therefore, the identification is received and associated with the determined location.
