Andrew Solutions Network Applications GeoLENs indoor location system

The GeoLENs indoor location system makes it easier for emergency services personnel to locate mobile phone users inside large buildings, potentially saving lives and reducing risk of harm to rescuers.

The specific location of a wireless device often cannot be determined more precisely than the building in which it is in use, causing great difficulty for rescuers trying to respond to a distress call made via a mobile device when the caller is unable to accurately provide a specific location, such as floor number, room location or other information necessary for emergency personnel.

The easy-to-deploy location system, part of the Andrew Solutions Network Applications portfolio, integrates with wireless indoor coverage systems including distributed antenna systems (DAS), repeaters and other RF equipment.

It can be deployed with existing DAS infrastructure or as a stand-alone indoor location solution and offers the advantage of working with existing handsets. The architecture is highly reliable and easy to install. Not only will wireless operators be able to offer improved accuracy for callers in-building, they can also use the capability for commercial applications including mobile advertising and social networking applications, among others.

The system operates by determining a caller’s proximity to signal detection devices and other network components that are part or independent of the in-building coverage system. It is suitable for use in large public venues such as stadiums, office buildings, malls, airports and hospitals. It has been deployed in a US Tier I network to provide locations in an airport, high-rise office building and urban canyon environments.

The location portfolio includes all necessary components to locate almost any user across a wireless network and then relay that information between location-based service providers and the user’s mobile device.
