A method and system for locating a mobile user of one or more mobile users
while on a call in a wireless telecommunication network utilizes a
decision network that determines if the call signal is propagating
through a repeater station. When the call is propagating through a
repeater station, the decision network alters the signal measurement
parameters to correspond with the location of the mobile user relative to
the repeater station co-ordinates. By revising signal measurement
parameters to compensate for repeater stations, the present invention
provides for improved position estimates of the location of the mobile
user in the network. For multiple cell soft handoff conditions, the
decision network utilizes trained neural networks.
