FIELD: radio engineering, communication.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to communication engineering and can be used in wireless communication systems. A mobile station uses wireless signals from a plurality of wireless networks for positioning for data communication, for obtaining time and/or frequency information, for range measurement and for sector or altitude estimation. The mobile stations are used to collect statistical data about wireless access points which have received signals from the wireless access points, such as from cellular base stations, wireless local area network access points, repeaters for positioning signals or other wireless communication transmitters, and to obtain position information of the wireless access points for the wireless networks from the collected statistical data.
EFFECT: determining position.
