3. Research Topic : 1- Wireless Location Positioning Systems Deployment :
Before 1996
Military & Marine applications.
For public cellular networks:
1996: FCC issued E911 Mandate “phase I”.
PSAP accuracy requirements “phase II”:
50 - 100 meters accuracy for at least 67% of emergency calls.
150 - 300 meters accuracy for at least 95% of emergency calls
Recently: EU passed E112 Mandate in Europe.
This year: RFQ of Location – Based Services (LBS) have been invited by STC. STC adopted the FCC accuracy ranges.
For private cellular networks:
2001: Some big organizations & enterprises started to adapt their networks to LBS.
Recently : A - GPS has been used for some private networks.
Industry analysts have forecasted that the LBS marketplace in the
United States will generate $ 4- 8 billion annually by 2005.
4. 2- LBS Applications:
For public services:
People finder ( either after emergency center calls or
by automatic tracking).
Assets tracking.
Entertainment & Tourism.
For Government sectors and enterprises:
City administration, intelligent traffic management.
Fleet management ( monitor, control and steer of their
crews movement).
Safety of the police officer – ability to locate officer in an
emergency situation and react accordingly.
Resource (person or vehicle) management.
For wireless network planning:
Network optimization planning (achieving efficient and
effective resource allocation).
5. 3- Location Estimation Techniques (LET) Factors Influencing Accuracy : Wireless Signal Propagation
NOLS (Reflection, Diffraction, Scattering ).
Multiple access interference.
Multipath fade.
Noise.
Coverage Areas
Urban, suburban and rural areas.
Indoor, outdoor.
Location Estimation Approach.
Geometric
Based on triangulation calculations, very sensitive to
wireless signal propagation variations.
Statistics
Based on statistical and probability calculations, affected
by wireless signal propagation variations.
Artificial intelligence
Based on learning capability, robust to wireless signal propagation
variations.
6. Location Estimation Measurement Methods. Network- Based, handset- based, and hybrid
7. 4 -What is the proposal Technique? it will be a real time location estimation technique based on neural
networks (NN). It will be applied to TETRA network.
Wireless radio signal parameters that can be extracted from the
network such as RSSI, TDOA, ,... etc and cell-ID. These parameters
were not used together before as NN input vector.
Also, a decision criterion such as LS or MLH will be used to resolve the
ambiguous coverage areas.
All available data will be fed in NN to locate TETRA Mobile Radio.
8. (Continued) The proposed technique
9. 5-Why TETRA is selected as a platform for the application of the proposed technique? 1- TETRA is the only open standard wireless trunking system that is manufactured
by more than one company.2- It is the preferable trunking system for safety and security sectors. So, its
implementation is spreading widely( 85% yearly increase ,2 sys. in S.A).3- So far, most of the safety and security sectors used AGPS to estimate their
fleet locations. Therefore, independent source for LBS is highly needed.4- Cell radius for TETRA is around 45km, while for GSM is around 10km.So,
locating of its MR need more robust technique which need more investigation. 5- TETRA Radios( base station, handheld, or vehicle) have power transmission
classes. But GSM mobile station transmits with one power class.
6- TETRA wireless signal model is different than GSM wireless signal model
( see the table below).
