2. © 2002 Openwave Systems Inc. CONFIDENTIAL Agenda Objective –Describe location services and interoperability –Describe some current interoperability solutions –Describe current activities in location standard bodies, such as OMA

3. © 2002 Openwave Systems Inc. CONFIDENTIAL General Trends in Location Services TIA moving from emergency to commercial services –Telecommunications Industry Association, mostly this hemisphere GSM moving from commercial to emergency services –Global System for Mobile Telecommunications, mostly rest of the world Operators looking for technical solutions to interoperability Operators trying to figure out long-term business models around interoperability

CONFIDENTIAL Interoperability of Network Elements Switch (MSC) Location Server PDE (A-GPS…) Home Location Register Obtain Location Provide Subscriber Location/Information A B C D A + B have different/multiple GSM and TIA standard protocols and messages to obtain location C has a standard TIA message in its architecture (being considered in GSM D has a different standard protocol and message in its architecture Openwave Location Server has interoperated with 3 different HLR/MSC vendors in a single live network Operators can plug and play with different equipment vendors

8. © 2002 Openwave Systems Inc. CONFIDENTIAL Interoperability of Applications Wireless Location Application Location Server LIF-MLP Specified interface let’s applications go on-line efficiently in multiple networks A = Location Interoperability Forum Mobile Location Protocol interface GSM – Le interface was met de facto by MLP interface TIA – MLP interface is strong contender for standard solution for commercial services as well A A A

9. © 2002 Openwave Systems Inc. CONFIDENTIAL Interoperability of Services -Today Wireless Location Application Location Server Wireless Network Wireless Location Application Location Server Wireless Network MLP Roaming GSM allows for LBS roaming through the Lg interface TIA is more difficult, requiring shared cell information

10. © 2002 Openwave Systems Inc. CONFIDENTIAL Interoperability of Services - Future Wireless Location Application Location Server Wireless Network Wireless Location Application Location Server Wireless Network PPR (GSM) LIR (TIA) MLP (OMA) MLP (OMA) GSM = Lr (OMA) TIA = ISPOSREQ (PN-4747) Wireless networks will enable LBS roaming and validate subscriber privacy as they do it Lr = Location Roaming ISPOSREQ= Intersystem Position Request PPR = Privacy Profile Register LIR = Location Information Register PPR (GSM) LIR (TIA)

11. © 2002 Openwave Systems Inc. CONFIDENTIAL MLP – Mobile Location Protocol For Le interface MLP Version 3.0.0 complete –Standard Immediate Location Service –Emergency Immediate Location Service –Standard Location Reporting Service –Emergency Location Reporting Service –Triggered Location Reporting Service

12. © 2002 Openwave Systems Inc. CONFIDENTIAL RLP – Roaming Location Protocol For Lr interface between Location Servers Heavy lifting Is done, should be Ratified in 2Q/3Q 2003

13. © 2002 Openwave Systems Inc. CONFIDENTIAL PCP – Privacy Checking Protocol For interface between a Location Server and Privacy Checking Entity (PCE) – aka a PPR or LIR PCP Version 1.0.0 under development, which supports: –Location Privacy Checking Service. Early days, probably ratified next year NOTE: an interoperability standard for sharing geoposition information, such as map rendering, ZIP code translation, etc. also being considered by OMA Presence is also now part of the OMA

14. © 2002 Openwave Systems Inc. CONFIDENTIAL PN- 4747 Currently in version 24, should be ratified later this year

15. © 2002 Openwave Systems Inc. CONFIDENTIAL Summary Interoperability is key to long-term success of location based services Some decent workarounds available today More robust standardized solutions are well on their way Business models to take advantage of interoperability are still being developed
