The geographical location of cellular subscribers has become an important topic with profound implications for a wide range of applications, known generically as 'location-based services' (LBS).
Highlights:
This paper outlines network-based LBS using passive monitoring probes and how this technology can be harnessed to provide location services for subscribers and revenue-generating opportunities for service providers. Network-based LBS does not require expensive GPS-enabled handsets but instead gets information directly from a passive overlay monitoring the cellular network allowing triangulation of subscribers. In this way all cellular handsets, even the cheapest pre-paid ones, can be offered sophisticated, geographically targeted applications from navigation aids and advertising to E911 and alert services.
Read this white paper today and find out how you can harness the power of a cellular network to offer location-based services.
