European Security and Safety Summit Trends in Satellite Location Technology
Trends • Market trends for commercial applications • Accuracy • Visible for the end user • Key for urban navigation • Quickness • Key for a satisfactory end user experience • Issue with “traditional GPS” • Coverage • Need to cover urban areas • Most applications to be used/started inside buildings • Emergency calls location to benefit entirely from such trends • Accuracy, quickness and coverage are key factors to save lives • Citizens will not understand to see in the same time • high performance applications available • while no implementation of emergency calls location
Technologies • Very fast technological evolutions to meet challenging market trends • Satellite based • Assisted-GPS : better quickness, accuracy, coverage • EGNOS : accuracy, quality of service, preparing Galileo • Mobile network based • Cell-Id : using cell location • NMR : using network signal power measurements • Local network based : Wi-Fi
Readiness HP6515 HP6915 Siemens Benq SXG75 A1000 E1000 Mitac A701 • Handsets • A growing offer of Assisted-GPS enabled phones HTC Artemis Blackberry 8800 • Commercial trends • Cost < 10 €, allows for entry range phones required by operators for 2008 • Next phones to come : Nokia, Benq, Sharp, Blackberry … • Standards now mature • Therefore European E112 regulation • Shall consider today commercial trends • Should be determined and gradual
