that allow to develop location based services, for any device
(WAP, PDAs, handsets, laptops...).
– Geo IP provides location information in WAP connections. Initiated
by user. The user authorizates to be located.
– GPP (Genasys Positioning Platform) provides location information
for any acces: WEB, WAP, SMS...Initiated by user or content
provider. (Passive location, for example tracking services).
• Cell-ID accuracy: The network provides the location information
of the cell in which the user is. The Cell-ID accuracy depends on
the cell size:
– Urban area: 50-500 m.
– Rural area: 1-20 km.

• Possible improvements: The use of TA (Timing Advance)
parameter improves the accuracy, but only with Ericsson BSCs.
