Working Group 3 Name

• Description Leveraging Commercial Location-Based
  Services
• The Working Group shall explore and make
  recommendations on methodologies for leveraging
  commercial location-based services for 9-1-1
  location determination and provide
  recommendations on the feasibility or
  appropriateness for the Commission to adopt
  operational benchmarks that will allow consumers
  to evaluate carriers ability to provide accurate
  location information

Working Group 3, Leveraging LBS report - Work
Completed

• Final report covering
• Location Technologies now used only for LBS, but
  which may be adaptable for Indoor E9-1-1
• Emerging Location Technologies that could
  possibly be used for Indoor E9-1-1
• For each of these technologies, assessment of
• Accuracy and Time-to-First-Fix (TTFF)
• Location yield
• Network Impact
• Handset Impact
• Standards Implications
• Database creation and maintenance issues

Working Group 3, Leveraging LBS report - Work
Completed (cont.)

• The following location technologies were
  analyzed
• WiFi-based Location
• Metropolitan beacon
• O-TDOA for LTE
• RF Fingerprinting
• Low-earth Orbit Satellite-based Positioning
• Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) Positioning
• Assisted-GNSS
• Hybrid Positioning using Multiple Location and
  Inertial Navigation Sensors
• Role of the Test Bed
• Only technologies that participated in the test
  bed had detailed parametric accuracy, yield, and
  TTFF claims shown in the Leveraging LBS report

Working Group 3, Leveraging LBS report
Summary Next Steps

• The diversity of location technologies reviewed
  in this report confirms that continual advances
  are being made in the field. Additionally, all
  the technologies discussed lend themselves to
  hybridization, i.e., the blending of measurements
  from multiple technologies to increase yield, and
  possibly accuracy. However, very few of these
  location technologies are currently available for
  E-9-1-1 use indoors. Three location technologies
  participated in the Indoor Test Bed. Based on
  the results, the workgroup believes that good
  progress is being made in addressing the indoor
  location challenge however, significantly more
  work needs to be done, including characterization
  of additional technologies in a Phase 2 test bed.
  
• We recommend establishment of subsequent Test Bed
  trials to evaluate future technologies, such as
  WiFi, GLONASS, U-TDOA, and O-TDOA for LTE
