Definitions

  • GPS Global Positioning Systems
  • radio beacons tri- angulation via radio beacons
  • cellular telephone auto-location there is clearly a problem in areas of poor coverage.
  • a user will be confined to a particular network to which he/she subscribes so, even if there is good or acceptable coverage for one network, the same may not be true of another network. This could leave the subscriber vulnerable if he happens to subscribe to the network with the poorest coverage in the particular area in which he finds himself requiring a location service.
  • cellular auto-location systems have limited accuracy. This is not unsurprising since cellular systems never were intended for location purposes.
