Critical analysis and error determination of locating-finding techniques in GSM. (2005)
Journal Article
Buchanan, W. J., Raja, A., & Munoz, J. (2005). Critical analysis and error determination of locating-finding techniques in GSM. International Journal of Mobile Communications, 3, 165-182. https://doi.org/10.1504/IJMC.2005.005905

GPS is a well-established technique for location-finding, but mobile phone-based methods are generally less expensive to implement, and can give reasonable accuracies. These techniques can thus be useful to network operators in providing services bas... Read More about Critical analysis and error determination of locating-finding techniques in GSM..
