Abstract

A system and method for determining transmission delay in a communications system. In some embodiments, satellite positioning information may be received for a mobile device and enhanced cell identification (E-CID) positioning information received for the mobile device. A location of the mobile device may be determined as a function of the received satellite positioning information, and transmission delay between a node serving the mobile device and an antenna serving the mobile device determined as a function of the received E-CID positioning information and the determined location of the mobile device.
