3So far, OsmoSMLC provides only TA-based positioning.

5=== TA-Based Positioning
6
7In TA-based positioning, the serving Cell Id and the Timing Advance (a.k.a.
8Access Delay) are provided by the BSC. OsmoSMLC returns a GAD "ellipsoid point
9with uncertainty circle" as location estimate. The ellipsoid point is the
10latitude and longitude of the serving cell, and the uncertainty circle is the
11maximum distance from that cell based on the Timing Advance information.
