Abstract

The invention relates to a cellular radio system comprising, in each cell, at least one base station (100, 102) communicating (104) with terminals (106) located within its area. To advantageously locate a terminal, the system of the invention comprises at least one set of measuring means (112, 114) for listening to the signals sent by the terminals and for collecting measurement data for at least two different terminal location methods.
