Location-Based Services Handbook: Applications, Technologies, and
Security is a comprehensive reference containing all aspects of
essential technical information on location-based services (LBS)
technology. With broad coverage ranging from basic concepts to
research-grade material, it presents a much-needed overview of
technologies for positioning and localizing, including range- and
proximity-based localization methods, and environment-based
location estimation methods. Featuring valuable contributions from
field experts around the world, this book addresses existing and
future directions of LBS technology, exploring how it can be used
to optimize resource allocation and improve cooperation in wireless
networks. It is a self-contained, comprehensive resource that
presents: A detailed description of the wireless location
positioning technology used in LBS Coverage of the privacy and
protection procedure for cellular networks-and its shortcomings An
assessment of threats presented when location information is
divulged to unauthorized parties Important IP Multimedia Subsystem
and IMS-based presence service proposals The demand for navigation
services is predicted to rise by a combined annual growth rate of
more than 104 percent between 2008 and 2012, and many of these
applications require efficient and highly scalable system
architecture and system services to support dissemination of
location-dependent resources and information to a large and growing
number of mobile users. This book offers tools to aid in
determining the optimal distance measurement system for a given
situation by assessing factors including complexity, accuracy, and
environment. It provides an extensive survey of existing literature
and proposes a novel, widely applicable, and highly scalable
architecture solution. Organized into three major
sections-applications, technologies, and security-this material
fully covers various location-based applications and the impact
they will have on the future.
