Wireless Communications solution provider, Andrew Solutions has come up with new standalone GeoLENs Secure User Plane Location (SUPL) Platform to address operator demand for deployment of commercial location-based services.

“SUPL has become an important and attractive architecture for location-enabling wireless networks given its ease of implementation through bypassing the access network signaling dependencies,” said Martin Dawson, director, Mobile Location, Andrew. “Commercial location-based services can be provided without the cost and complication of implementing control plane location interfaces in the network.”

The new GeoLEN solution is based on standalone server compliant to the Open Mobile Alliance SUPL 1.0 standard.

“Our development and deployment of a standalone SUPL Platform is in response to operator requests for such a solution,” said Dawson. “The versatility and adaptability of the GeoLENs location solution paired with Andrew’s expertise in location technologies helped us respond quickly to this market need.”
