不幸的是，你所有的假设似乎都是正确的，我认为没有办法做到这一点。为了节省电池寿命，iPhone的定位服务是基于移动的。如果手机放在一个位置，定位服务就看不见它。

CLLocationManager只会在手机接收到位置更新时调用locationManager:didUpdateToLocation:fromLocation:，这只会发生在三个位置服务(蜂窝塔，gps, wifi)之一感知到变化时。

其他一些事情可能有助于进一步的解决方案:

Starting & Stopping the services causes the didUpdateToLocation delegate method to be called, but the newLocation might have an old timestamp. Region Monitoring might help When running in the background, be aware that it may be difficult to get "full" LocationServices support approved by Apple. From what I've seen, they've specifically designed startMonitoringSignificantLocationChanges as a low power alternative for apps that need background location support, and strongly encourage developers to use this unless the app absolutely needs it.

好运！

更新:这些想法现在可能已经过时了。看起来人们在@wjans的回答上取得了成功。

在iOS 9和watchOS 2.0中，CLLocationManager上有一个新方法，可以让你请求当前位置:CLLocationManager:requestLocation()。这立即完成，然后将位置返回给CLLocationManager委托。

你现在可以使用NSTimer每分钟用这个方法请求一个位置，而不必使用startUpdatingLocation和stopUpdatingLocation方法。

然而，如果你想要根据上次位置X米的变化来捕获位置，只需要设置CLLocationManger的distanceFilter属性并调用startUpdatingLocation()。

在苹果开发者论坛的帮助下，我找到了一个解决方案:

指定位置背景模式 在后台用UIApplication:beginBackgroundTaskWithExpirationHandler创建一个NSTimer: 当n小于UIApplication: backgroundtimerremain时，它会正常工作。当n较大时，应该在没有剩余时间之前再次启用(并禁用)位置管理器，以避免后台任务被终止。

这是因为位置是三种允许的后台执行类型之一。

注意:我在模拟器中测试了一些时间，在那里它不起作用。不过，它在我的手机上运行得很好。

现在iOS6已经发布了，永远运行位置服务的最好方法是……

- (void)applicationWillResignActive:(UIApplication *)application
{
/*
 Sent when the application is about to move from active to inactive state. This can occur for certain types of temporary interruptions (such as an incoming phone call or SMS message) or when the user quits the application and it begins the transition to the background state.
 Use this method to pause ongoing tasks, disable timers, and throttle down OpenGL ES frame rates. Games should use this method to pause the game.
 */

NSLog(@"to background");

app.isInBackground = TRUE;

UIApplication *app = [UIApplication sharedApplication];

// Request permission to run in the background. Provide an
// expiration handler in case the task runs long.
NSAssert(bgTask == UIBackgroundTaskInvalid, nil);

bgTask = [app beginBackgroundTaskWithExpirationHandler:^{
    // Synchronize the cleanup call on the main thread in case
    // the task actually finishes at around the same time.
    dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{

        if (bgTask != UIBackgroundTaskInvalid)
        {
            [app endBackgroundTask:bgTask];
            bgTask = UIBackgroundTaskInvalid;
        }
    });
}];

// Start the long-running task and return immediately.
dispatch_async(dispatch_get_global_queue(DISPATCH_QUEUE_PRIORITY_DEFAULT, 0), ^{

    // Do the work associated with the task.

    locationManager.distanceFilter = 100;
    locationManager.desiredAccuracy = kCLLocationAccuracyHundredMeters;
    [locationManager startMonitoringSignificantLocationChanges];
    [locationManager startUpdatingLocation];

    NSLog(@"App staus: applicationDidEnterBackground");
    // Synchronize the cleanup call on the main thread in case
    // the expiration handler is fired at the same time.
    dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
        if (bgTask != UIBackgroundTaskInvalid)
        {
            [app endBackgroundTask:bgTask];
            bgTask = UIBackgroundTaskInvalid;
        }
    });
});

NSLog(@"backgroundTimeRemaining: %.0f", [[UIApplication sharedApplication] backgroundTimeRemaining]);

}

就像这样测试:

我打开应用程序，进入后台，几分钟后开车。然后我回家1小时，再次开始移动(没有再次打开应用程序)。重新开始定位。然后停了两个小时，又重新开始。一切都好了……

不要忘记在iOS6中使用新的位置服务

- (void)locationManager:(CLLocationManager *)manager didUpdateLocations:(NSArray *)locations
{   
    CLLocation *loc = [locations lastObject];

    // Lat/Lon
    float latitudeMe = loc.coordinate.latitude;
    float longitudeMe = loc.coordinate.longitude;
}

似乎stopUpdatingLocation是什么触发后台看门狗定时器，所以我在didUpdateLocation替换它:

     [self.locationManager setDesiredAccuracy:kCLLocationAccuracyThreeKilometers];
     [self.locationManager setDistanceFilter:99999];

这似乎有效地关闭了GPS。然后，背景NSTimer的选择器变成:

- (void) changeAccuracy {
[self.locationManager setDesiredAccuracy:kCLLocationAccuracyBest];
[self.locationManager setDistanceFilter:kCLDistanceFilterNone];
}

我所做的是每隔几分钟定期切换精度以获得高精度坐标，因为locationManager没有停止，backgroundtimerremain保持在其最大值。这将我的设备上的电池消耗从每小时~10%(在后台使用恒定的kCLLocationAccuracyBest)降低到每小时~2%

有一个cocoapod APScheduledLocationManager，允许每n秒获得所需位置精度的后台位置更新。

let manager = APScheduledLocationManager(delegate: self)
manager.startUpdatingLocation(interval: 170, acceptableLocationAccuracy: 100)

存储库还包含一个用Swift 3编写的示例应用程序。
