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:

    “There are ... two minimum conditions necessary and sufficient for the existence of a legal system. On the one hand those rules of behavior which are valid according to the system’s ultimate criteria of validity must be generally obeyed, and on the other hand, its rules of recognition specifying the criteria of legal validity and its rules of change and adjudication must be effectively accepted as common public standards of official behavior by its officials.”
    —H.L.A. (Herbert Lionel Adolphus)

    “As long as our people quote English standards they dwarf their own proportions.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “The technologist was the final guise of the white missionary, industrialization the last gospel of a dying race and living standards a substitute for a purpose in living.”
    —Max Frisch (1911–1991)
