Abstract

Session parameters and/or information regarding session parameters are provided to a target device from a location server in a periodic assistance session. For example, the location server starts an unsolicited periodic assistance session, and transmits information indicating the unsolicited assistance session is periodic as well as any relevant session parameters to the target device. The location server may change session parameters 'on the fly,' and inform the target device of the modified session parameters. The target device may initiate a session and requests certain parameters, to which the location server responds with an indication as to what parameters the target device will actually receive. Additionally, the target device may modify the session parameters, and the location server can respond to the target indicating whether or not the modification was accepted or if the modification was accepted in a modified form.
