User Plane Solutions

This is a “device based” solution instead of “network based” one which results in high accuracy as device is itself involved in determining location via GPS. A small application is installed on the device and a small scaled down GMLC is included as part of the mobile application to manage security and authentication requests. The application is activated when the user invokes a location based service. In addition to the “Pull” model, “Push” based location requests (ex. trail, geo-fence) are also supported with the help of scaled down GMLC.

Hybrid Solutions

The hybrid positioning solution combines control plane and user plane solutions depending on the real-time environmental conditions when location request is being served. For ex. GPS is not reliable or may not work when device is inside a building or in a high-density urban area with high-rise buildings or under cloudy conditions. In such scenarios, user plane location determination is complemented with control plane positioning methods to allow for most accurate, consistent & reliable location determination.
