Methods for locating electromagnetic pulse emission sources in an environment including reflectors is disclosed. In one aspect, the method includes receiving, by a detector, for each source to be located, at least one same emitted pulse, received directly from said source and received by reflection on one of the reflectors. The method also includes identifying direct subsets and reflected subsets, regrouping by pairs of direct subsets with reflected subsets, calculating, for each pair, differences in dates of arrival between the pulses of the reflected subset and the pulses of the direct subset of the pair, and determining the distance of each source from the detector from calculated differences in dates of arrival of the pulses of each pair.

Provided is a wireless positioning calibration system, including a plurality of transmission base stations, at least one sniffer base station and a positioning server. The at least one sniffer base station receives a plurality of channel state information (CSI) transmitted by the plurality of transmission base stations. The positioning server receives the plurality of CSI transmitted by the at least one sniffer base station. The positioning server calculates a phase error and an antenna spacing error generated by the at least one sniffer base station by means of the plurality of CSI, and compensates the phase error and the antenna spacing error. A wireless positioning calibration method is also provided.

A user equipment (UE) is disclosed. The UE includes a receiver and a processor that receive a radio resource control (RRC) signal including uplink (UL) sounding reference signal (SRS) configuration information. The UE also receives a semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) message to activate transmission of UL SRSs The UE may then transmit UL SRSs in a time and frequency pattern based on at least the UL SRS configuration information. A UE method and an eNode-B are also disclosed.

A method and system for intercepting mobile apparatus of cellular radio system are disclosed. The method can include implementing, with an interrogation apparatus, a silent call with a mobile apparatus in a radio cell; implementing, with a mobile platform, at least three transmit radio beams each with a distinct transmission direction in relation to the mobile platform; receiving a measurement report from the mobile apparatus including received downlink power levels of the radio cell and at least one of the three transmit radio beams; receiving a geographical location of the mobile platform; obtaining a geographical orientation of the mobile platform; and calculating a geographical location of the mobile apparatus based on the received downlink power levels, the geographical location of the mobile platform, the distinct transmission directions, and the geographical orientation of the mobile platform.
