Combining a flexible, scalable platform with an integrated end-to-end approach, TruePosition's "best of breed" wireless location technology reduces risk and ensures LBS (Location Based Service) success.
Positioning Technology or Wireless Location Technology - Highlights
- All Major Positioning/Wireless Location Technologies: TruePosition offers every major PDE (Position Determining Equipment) technology, including Cell ID techniques, U-TDOA, A-GPS, E-CID, AOA, as well as hybrid solutions
- Comprehensive SMLC: the world’s most proven SMLC (Serving Mobile Location Center) which supports all major PDE (Position Determining Equipment) technologies and systems, with the unique ability to accommodate multiple technologies at once
- Industry Leading GMLC with Middleware: making the connection between the application and the SMLC (Serving Mobile Location Center), GMLC (Gateway Mobile Location Center) solutions give operators maximum control over the way wireless location services are tailored to meet the needs of subscribers
A complete end-to-end wireless location solution. Hardware, software and middleware tuned to the exact level of accuracy and performance you need.
As the demand for wireless location services has grown, the technology that makes location based services possible has only grown more confusing and complex. There are literally dozens of vendors, all providing different pieces of the puzzle.
Rather than investing the time and resources integrating disparate vendors yourself, TruePosition can provide a total end-to-end approach — ensuring high quality of wireless location service, seamless network integration, faster time to market, and most importantly, exceptional customer experiences.
TruePosition even has the ability to design a solution that incorporates multiple location technologies like A-GPS, E-CID, and U-TDOA (the T-Mobile and AT&T wireless location solution used for their E-911 systems).
We are the wireless location experts, with more than 15 years of real-world experience. From strategy, to technology, to integration and implementation, we can support you as much or as little as you need to make your network and applications successful. Our location systems are compatible with infrastructure equipment from all major vendors, meaning you can leverage existing investments and seamlessly integrate wireless location services into your network. In addition, our mobile location solutions are "future-proofed," meaning your technologies and equipment will not become outdated over time.

Description |
Performance |
U-TDOA
Uplink Time Difference of Arrival
(sub 50m)
|
Utilizes low-cost location measurement units installed in the operators' base stations to precisely calculate location using triangulation. |
Works with any phone — existing or future.
Works well in urban, suburban, and obstructed environments.
|
A-GPS
Assisted Global Positioning System
(sub 30m)
|
Utilizes modified handsets that contain a GPS receiver and a special network server to assist in location calculation.
|
Works well in rural and suburban areas that provide an unobstructed view of the sky. |
E-CID
Enhanced Cell ID
(200m to 500m)*
*Depending on cell site density. |
Derives additional timing advance and power measurements from the wireless network.
|
Works with any phone and provides improved accuracy over Cell-ID in areas of high-cell site density. |
AOA
Angle of Arrival
(100m to 500m)
|
Utilizes two or more antennas containing multiple element arrays, allowing the exact location of each AOA element to be precisely calculated. |
Works with any wireless phone — existing or future.
Supports sparse cell site density or where cell sites are arranged linearly, for example, along a stretch of highway.
|
| Hybrid |
Any combination of E-CID, A-GPS, U-TDOA, or AOA to achieve optimal performance for any situation. |
Highest Quality of Service for all applications.
