| Abstract [eng] |
This work investigates the problems of applying GSM location methods to solve transport problems. The work covers analysis of wide selection of location methods, and contemporary location platforms. The research in location platforms has shown that current LBS systems are not completely suitable for establishing relationship between transport and location data. It is shown that geocoding, and especially reverse geocoding is critical in applying location data to solve transport problems. After qualitative analysis of contemporary location methods in context of transport information, it is suggested, that improving existing Cell-ID, Cell-ID+TA, E-CGI methods by making them more geocoding friendly could improve location fix accuracy and time. An NWAD algorithm to automatically select the best location method in GSM/UMTS networks is suggested and developed into the system for automatic cell coverage area calculations. |
