Zusammenfassung:A method for use in a mobile communication system for estimating the location of a target mobile station (MS) which includes receiving signals from the target MS (N) at a plurality of receivers (MS 1 , MS 2 , MS 3 ) in different locations and calculating the location of the target MS (N) from information obtained from the received signals, wherein at least one of the receivers (MS 1 ) is a searching MS and wherein the calculation of location is carried out by the searching MS (MS 1 ). The method may involve the target MS and the searching MS or MSs communicating by a direct mode of operation (DMO) link. The searching MSs may conveniently have GPS attachments. A mobile station which may be used as the target MS or as a searching MS and a system incorporating the same is also disclosed.
