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
