Nokia and Radiolinja test positioning technology on WCDMA network
December 9, 2002
Nokia and Radiolinja, the Finnish mobile operator, have successfully
demonstrated Service Area Identity (SAI) positioning technology
as part of the Nokia mPosition solution.
The field trials were carried out using Radiolinja's "pre commercial"
WCDMA network and achieved good results in accurately determining
a user's position within the range of a single network cell.
The field trials were carried out in a combined urban and suburban
area in Tampere, Finland. Most tests were carried out in a moving
vehicle.
"The field trial of 3G location-based services now realized is
a natural continuation of the co-operation Radiolinja has done with
Nokia," says Ari Asikainen, Chief Executive Office, Radiolinja Origo
Oy. "The experience we have gained now helps us to smoothly move
the 2G location-based services to the 3G network, so that end-users
don't perceive any difference in service."
Service Area Identity is an advanced position technology used in
WCDMA networks to determine the physical location of a mobile subscriber,
thus enabling location-relevant services which are one of the key
elements in the Mobile Internet. Deployment of SAI positioning can
be made with minimum additional network investment because the GSM
and WCDMA network architectures can use the same positioning calculation
and Gateway Mobile Location servers. There is virtually no cost
burden for terminals either, since SAI does not require any support
from terminals.
