2 Overview Key GSM LCS Specifications Modes of Operation Network Reference Model Interfaces and Protocols Call Flows High Level End-to-End Broadcast Ls / Lb Open Interface 2

3 Key GSM LCS Standards Stage 1 GSM Functionality and Service Description Stage 2 GSM Network Reference Model Call Flows Positioning Technologies Stage 3 Multiple Specifications New Specifications GSM RRLP and GSM Broadcast GSM and GSM SMLC Interfaces GSM Supplementary Services (MO-LR) Modified Specifications GSM 03.41, GSM 04.08, GSM 04.80, GSM 08.08, GSM

4 Modes of Operation MS- Assisted GPS MS-Assisted GPS is defined as an implementation where assistance data is provided to the MS, by the SMLC, such that the MS can acquire GPS satellite signals and determine their corresponding pseudorange measurements. These time-stamped satellite psuedoranges are returned to the SMLC, where the location estimate is then calculated. MS-Based GPS MS-Based GPS is defined as an implementation where assistance data is provided to the MS, by the SMLC, such that the MS can calculate its own location estimate. 4
