I am BE(ECE) & a working professional in Telecom(GSM BSS).I want to pursue course on LBS(Location Based Service) by DE.Pls suggest Institute
I am working on Telecom sector (GSM Base Station System). I want to shift to Telecom softwware. I want to do a course on LBS (Location Based Service) which is a future requirement for all Telecom operators. Please suggest me good institute from where I can do this course through distance mode.
Thanks aru.chopra As is the case with telecom sector in India, almost everything is imported, including software, hardware and value added services. There are no institutes in India which offer course on LBS, leave alone distance mode. Since you are keen on distance learning, I will give you some salient points about LBS:- 1. Location awareness in cellphones stems from the FCC's E911 mandate, in USA and TEC, the technical arm of the TRAI in India. 2. Qualcomm's GPS-One, assisted-GPS technology combines cell-tower based triangulation (good in cities) with GPS satellite-based location (good in rural areas). Verizon and Sprint have the bes

Qualcomm's GPS-One, assisted-GPS technology combines cell-tower based triangulation (good in cities) with GPS satellite-based location (good in rural areas). Verizon and Sprint have the best LBS potential because gps-One has been embedded in all Qualcomm CDMA chips and thus all new CMDA phones sold in the US. "TruePosition" tries to solve the LBS problems of GSM carriers, first for the US but now for the much larger international market. LBS can be GPS based or RFID based. 3. The key drivers of location-based services:- Automation: Is the data location entered manually, reported to a human, or to another computer? (Wells was the first person I've heard use “M2M” as in machine-to-machine). Range: Are you trying to find something anywhere on the planet or within a building? Adams seemed to convinced his audience that RFID (low cost, short range) LBS should be considered as an extension of cellular or GPS-based solutions. Accuracy: Do you need to know the city, within 300m (a typical cell phone triangulation), or within a few feet? I can imagine localizing equipment in a hospital requires more accuracy than “find me the nearest movie theater.” timeliness. Do you need the data in real-time or only a few times a month or year? Cost: How much are you willing to pay? Per object? Per system/tracking network? Per transmission? Wells noted, for example, that the business models of cell carriers assume a $50 monthly revenue per mobile device, far too much for monthly tracking of capital equipment. 4. The Indian government said telecom operators are at various stages of implementation of mandated accuracies in location-based services, but no service provider has been able to complete the work and send final compliance. Operators are required to provide location of a subscriber up to 50 meters of a mobile tower through location-based services with a 30 per cent accuracy in urban area within the first year of deployment and increase the accuracy level to 50 percent over next year.
