Abstract

Enhanced intelligent routing logic for routing and load balancing a SET-initiated SUPL session request based on SET capabilities (e.g. SET-supported positioning protocols) and a roaming status identified for a requesting SET. When a SET capabilities parameter in a SUPL START message initiated by a requesting SET indicates that the SET supports a LTE positioning protocol (LPP), only, enhanced intelligent routing logic routes the SUPL session request to newly configured SUPL servers that support the LTE positioning protocol (LPP), only. Alternatively, when SET capabilities indicate that a requesting SET supports a radio resource location services protocol (RRLP), in addition to or in exclusion of a LPP, the intelligent router routes the session request message to SUPL servers that support the RRLP, in addition to or in exclusion of the LPP. Intelligent routing logic may also be enhanced to support SUPL intelligent off load (SI-OL) based on SET capabilities.
