PhoneGap application requires native iOS code for background service?

I have a PhoneGap app and it checks your location every 5 minutes and reports it back etc.. to do this When the app needs to run in put at the background .

For Android I have written native code but for iOS will this work?

I'm not even sure how you would implement native objective c into PhoneGap as they are very different compilers etcthe it pause.

Any advice would be appreciatedWhen it come back to front, it will resume all remaining operation.
