  • Accurate Location Detection 911 Help SMS App
    System and method that allows for cost effective location detection accuracy that exceeds current FCC standards. Accurate Location Detection 911 Help SMS App White Paper White Paper: 911 Help SMS App 1 Cost Effective Location Detection Techniques Used by the 911 Help SMS App to Overcome Smartphone Flaws and GPS Discrepancies Minh Tran, DMD Box 1089 Springfield, VA 22151 Phone: (267) 250-0594 Email: [email protected] Introduction As of April 2015, approximately 64% of Americans own smartphones. Although there has been progress with E911 and NG911, locating cell phone callers remains a major obstacle for 911 dispatchers. This white papers gives an overview of techniques used by the 911 Help SMS App to more accurately locate victims indoors and outdoors when using smartphones. Background Location information is not only transmitted to the call center for the purpose of sending emergency services to the scene of the incident, it is used by the wireless network operator to determine to which PSAP to route the call. With regards to E911 Phase 2, wireless network operators must provide the latitude and longitude of callers within 300 meters, within six minutes of a request by a PSAP. To locate a mobile telephone geographically, there are two general approaches. One is to use some form of radiolocation from the cellular network; the other is to use a Global Positioning System receiver built into the phone itself. Radiolocation in cell phones use base stations. Most often this is done through triangulation between radio towers. White Paper: 911 Help SMS App 2 Problem GPS accuracy varies and could incorrectly place the victim’s location at their neighbor’s home.

  • Executive Summary of the ICAO Position for ITU WRC-15 Radio
    Executive Summary of the ICAO Position for ITU WRC-15 Radio frequency spectrum is a scarce natural resource with finite capacity for which demand is constantly increasing. The requirements of civil aviation as well as other spectrum users continue to grow at a fast pace, thus creating an ever-increasing pressure to an already stretched resource. International competition between radio services obliges all spectrum users, aeronautical and non- aeronautical alike, to continually defend and justify retention of existing or addition of new frequency bands. The ICAO Position aims at protecting aeronautical frequency spectrum for all radiocommunication and radionavigation systems used for ground facilities and on board aircraft. The ICAO Position addresses all radioregulatory aspects on aeronautical matters on the agenda for the WRC-15. The items of main concern to aviation include the following: identification of additional frequency bands for the International Mobile Telecommunications (IMT). Under this agenda item, the telecommunications industry is seeking up to 1200 MHz of additional spectrum in the 300 MHz to 6 GHz range for mobile and broadband applications. It is expected that a number of aeronautical frequency bands will come under pressure for potential repurposing, especially some of the Primary Surveillance Radar (PSR) bands. Existing frequency allocations which are vital for the operation of aeronautical very small aperture terminal (VSAT) ground-ground communication networks, especially in tropical regions, are also expected to come under pressure. Due to decisions made by a previous WRC, this has already become a problematic issue in Africa. WRC-15 agenda items 1.1 and 9.1.5 refer; potential radioregulatory means to facilitate the use of non-safety satellite service frequency bands for a very safety-critical application, the command and control link for remotely piloted aircraft systems (RPAS) in non-segregated airspace.

    February 24, 2021 FACT SHEET* Facilitating Shared Use in the 3.1-3.55 GHz Band Second Report and Order, Order on Reconsideration, and Order of Proposed Modification, WT Docket No. 19-348 Background The Beat China by Harnessing Important, National Airwaves for 5G Act of 2020, which was included in the Fiscal Year 2021 omnibus spending bill, requires the Commission to work with its Federal partners to bring all of the 3.45 GHz band spectrum to market for next-generation wireless use through a system of competitive bidding by December 31, 2021. Beginning the implementation of this Congressional mandate, this item reallocates 100 megahertz in the 3.45 GHz band for flexible use wireless services and adopt rules to implement the new 3.45 GHz Service, The framework adopted for the 3.45 GHz band will enable full-power commercial use and provide flexibility to future licensees in deploying their networks in this band, while also ensuring that federal incumbents are still protected where and when they require continued access to the band. What the Second Report and Order Would Do: • Make 100 megahertz of spectrum in the 3.45 GHz band available for flexible use wireless services throughout the contiguous United States; • Add a co-primary, non-federal fixed and mobile (except aeronautical mobile) allocation to the band; • Create a regime to coordinate non-federal and federal use of spectrum by adopting Cooperative Planning Areas and Periodic Use Areas and establishing coordination procedures; • Adopt a band plan and technical, licensing, and competitive

Tel.: +8801911195987; email: [email protected] Manuscript submitted January 10, 2018; accepted March 8, 2018. doi: 10.17706/ijcce.2018.7.3.85-97 Abstract: A popular approach, called as Radiolocation, measures parameters of radio signals that travel between a Mobile Station (MS) and a set of fixed transceivers, which are subsequently used to derive the location estimation of MS. The purpose of this research was to investigate the performance of Time of Arrival (TOA) based Radiolocation approach for finding the location of MS in the CDMA cellular networks. Another aim was to find out suitable location estimation algorithm using measured parameters by Radiolocation approach. Finally, the accuracy of the Radiolocation was examined by comparing two different location estimation algorithms. Two different algorithms for position estimation methods, named as Neural Networks and Least Square algorithms, were used to determine the location of MS. The simulation results suggested that the Neural Network algorithm provides better accuracy in position estimation which were depicted by supportive simulation results in the article. Key words: Time of arrival (TOA), radiolocation, neural networks, least square algorithms. 1. Introduction Time of arrival (TOA), the strength of a signal and Angle of arrival (AOA) techniques are among those techniques that can be utilized to approximate and evaluate the position of Primary users.

Keywords: AIS, Radiolocation, TDOA, EKF Abstract The Automatic Identification System (AIS), a ship reporting system originally designed for collision avoidance, is becoming a cornerstone of maritime situational awareness. The recent increase of terrestrial networks and satellite constellations of receivers is providing global tracking data that enable a wide spectrum of applications beyond collision avoidance. Nevertheless, AIS suffers the lack of security measures that makes it prone to receiving positions that are unintentionally incorrect, jammed or deliberately falsified. In this work we analyse a solution to the problem of AIS data verification that can be implemented within a generic networks of ground AIS base stations with no need for additional sensors or technologies. The proposed approach combines a classic radio-localisation method based on Time Difference of Arrival (TDoA) with an Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) designed to track vessels in geodetic coordinates. The approach is validated using anonymised real AIS data collected by multiple base stations that partly share coverage areas. The results show a deviation between the estimated origin of detected signals and the broadcast position data in the order of hundreds of meters, therefore demonstrating the operational potential of the methodology.
