Assisted GPS - Standards

Standards

AGPS protocols are part of Positioning Protocol defined by two different standardization body, 3gpp and Open Mobile Alliance (OMA).

  1. Control Plane Protocol - It is defined by 3gpp for various generations of mobile phone system. These protocols are defined for Circuit Switched Networks. Following positioning protocol has been defined.
    1. RRLP - 3gpp defined RRLP or Radio resource location protocol to support positioning protocol on GSM networks.
    2. TIA 801 - CDMA2000 family defined this protocol for CDMA 2000 networks.
    3. RRC position protocol - 3gpp defined this protocol as part of the RRC standard for UMTS network.
    4. LPP - 3gpp defined LPP or LTE positioning protocol for LTE Networks.
  2. User Plane Protocol - It is defined by OMA to support positioning protocols in Packet Switched Networks. Two generations of User plane Protocol have evolved.
    1. SUPL V1.0
    2. SUPL V2.0

Famous quotes containing the word standards:

    “If one doesn’t know one’s own country, one doesn’t have standards for foreign countries.”
