Description

The method and apparatus that is used for the position of definite WAP
Technical field
The present invention relates to network information technology field, more specifically, relate to the position of confirming WAP and the position of confirming portable terminal to be measured.
Background technology
Along with popularizing of portable terminal, the class of service that is applied to portable terminal is constantly expanded, and portable terminal is communicated by letter more and more widely with server.
Location based services (Location Based Service; LBS) be the positional information (geographical coordinate that wireless communication networks (like GSM net, CDMA net) or outside locate mode (like GPS) through mobile operator are obtained mobile phone users; Or geodetic coordinates); (Information System GIS) under the support of platform, provides a kind of value-added service of respective service for the user in GIS-Geographic Information System.
LBS realizes mutual by mobile communications network and computer network be combined into through gateway between two networks on the whole.Portable terminal sends request through mobile communications network, gives the LBS service platform through gateway passes; Service platform is handled according to user's request and user's current location.And the result returned to the user through gateway.Service platform mainly can comprise WEB server (Web Sever), location-server (Location Sever) and LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) server etc.
LBS comprises two layers of meaning: at first be the geographical position of confirming mobile device or user place; Next provides the various information service relevant with the position.LBS can be used as the information filtering technology, greatly improves the precision of information, but is combining closely of information itself and geographical position in advance.The position is one of important metadata.
LBS is because the service that provides is different thereby be divided into various type, formed the LBS application model of several kinds of distinct characteristics at present to the difference of LBS service content, and these patterns have also been represented current LBS Development Trend and segmentation basically.
One, amusement and recreation type
1. (Check-In) pattern of registering: the basic characteristics of this pattern are following:
1) user need initiatively register (Check-In) to write down the position that oneself belongs to;
2) through honor such as integration, medal and feudal lord excitation user Check-In, satisfy user's vanity sense;
3) through cooperating with the businessman, to the user of the specific integration that obtains or medal the award of preferential or discount is provided, also be marketing simultaneously to businessman's brand;
4) other socialization instruments through user bound are to share user's geographical location information synchronously;
5) through encourage users place (shop, dining room etc.) are estimated to produce premium content.
The ultimate challenge of this pattern is to cultivate will the register custom of (Check-In) of the every the three unities of user.And its business model also is apparent in view, can be well carries out various forms of marketing and popularization for trade company or brand.
2. zillionaire game mode: purport is a recreation life, can let the user utilize mobile phone to buy virtual house property and stage property in the real geographical position, and consume with interaction etc. with reality and the virtual a kind of pattern that really merges.The characteristics of this pattern are to have more interest; Playability and interactive stronger has more viscosity than Check-In pattern, but owing to need carry out virtual design to the places such as house property in the reality; Development cost is higher, and because region causes the coverage speed can not be very fast excessively by force.Aspect business model, except the associating businessman marketing of using for reference the Check-In pattern, also can provide value added service, and the product placement of similar second life (Second Life) etc.
Two, service for life type
1. the search of peripheral service for life: with the pattern that comment is netted or life information class website combines with geo-location service.The main practical speciality that is instrument property of experiencing, problem are that the accumulation of amount of information and coverage rate need more extensive.
2. with the combining of tourism: tourism has tangible mobility and a geographical attribute, and the combination of LBS and tourism is that ten minutes suits.Share attack strategy and gains in depth of comprehension and embodied certain social character.
3. member card and ticketing service pattern: realize a blocking, bundle the information of multiple member card, the member card of electronization can write down consumption habit and information simultaneously, makes the user experience simple and direct form and a large amount of favor information polymerizations fully.The application of these mobile Internetizations slowly is being penetrated into the every aspect of service for life, makes life facility and fashion more.
Three, koinotropic type
1. make friends in the place, instant messaging: different users makes up user's association because be in same geographical position at one time.
2. with the geographical position small community on basis.
Four, commercial type
1.LBS+ purchase by group: the both has regional Characteristics, but purchases by group and its otherness arranged.The user arrives the back and uses mobile phone application to carry out Check In to some local signatory businessmans.After the quantity of Check In arrived some, all users that carried out Check In just can obtain certain discount or preferential.
2. favor information Push Service: for the user provides the favor information Push Service based on the geographical position, profit model is to realize being divided into of interests through the cooperation with offline businesses.
3. shop internal schema: the user is attracted in the market of appointment, accomplishes and just give it after the behavior of appointment and be convertible into the virtual of commodity or gift token and count.
In sum, the pattern of location+service of LBS has been doomed the development of LBS and must have been possessed the condition of two aspects at least: the position of confirming you; Confirm your purpose (service).Position in LBS (Location) is the basis, and service (Service) is the place of emphasis.
One, confirms your position
Location based services, it is extremely important to have the pinpoint portable terminal of ability.And this terminal except confirming the position also must have good application extension function, because LBS has only integrated application, is checked anywhere or anytime and is browsed just and can accomplish something.
1. smart mobile phone quantity is supported
The extensibility of smart mobile phone, the system that smart mobile phone loaded are for the good support of application program, and the quantity of smart mobile phone has determined the richness of application software, and the richness of using has determined user group and audient's scope.So the development of popularizing for LBS of smart mobile phone has very important prerequisite, because LBS also is the related service that belongs to based on the geographical position after all, and these services must become its attraction of application competence exertion that is integrated in above the portable terminal.
2. the GPS of smart mobile phone uses
The general mobile phone of comparing, smart mobile phone since its intelligence system excellent application performance can, the GPS location navigation is had very good support always.And present trend is, most smart mobile phones can GP configuring S module, the important step of LBS is exactly to confirm user's position, and development has very large facilitation beyond doubt to LBS for this.
Crucial core is position and geography information in the LBS service, and both complement each other, and are indispensable.A longitude and latitude position is not represented in all senses for normal use, must be placed on a geography information, just can be represented as certain place, sign, orientation etc., could be understood by people.Therefore, except getting access to through the positioning action platform the position at terminal, must convert longitude and latitude the geography information of user's real concern to through generalized information system, like map, route searching result etc.
Two, confirm your service
Confirmed after the position that thing afterwards just becomes simple and how has been easy to.And LBS uses main competition field also in this position: after having known my position, which type of service I needs, and this is only the problem of being concerned about the most as the user.The service that provides can have enough attractions, attracts abundant user to experience, and is LBS application service key of success.Because have only abundant people to flock together, the LBS location based services vivid and interesting that just can become is rich in life.
Here face a bit can not be ignored in addition, and that is exactly the good network support.Location and service all need network support to realize.LBS needs more accurate locating information and the information on services that upgrades in time, and it is essential that good network is supported.
Three, businessman's resource is supported
Application service be unable to do without the support of businessman, and application program is just confirmed the position, and the service that will be correlated with then offers you, so the support of businessman's resource also is very important for the development of LBS.
In the process of development LBS, the problem that generally runs into is following.
1. the popularity rate of smart mobile phone is on the low side.This audient crowd that will directly cause LBS to use is rare relatively.
2. the restriction of the positioning accuracy of intelligent mobile phone terminal.LBS positioning strategy very accurately comes environment is on every side carried out comparatively detailed description, and the not high user experience that will cause LBS to use of positioning accuracy is relatively poor.
3. positioning cost.Existing have one type of position application, very fast of speed, display precision is unusual height also, but a very large defect is but arranged: inquiry and location need very huge of GPRS flow.And the LBS application all is based on mobile Internet, and that just must examine this location cost.
4. businessman lacks the consciousness of popularization, and network waterborne troops spreads unchecked.In many LBS application services the inside, the status of businessman also is considerable, and the user uses the final purpose of LBS to search own interested service exactly.The intimate cooperation of all businessmans and application provider just seems particularly important, and LBS is intended to the user with trade company's guiding purpose of high-quality, and trade company also can realize the popularization of brand through this, and this also is the thing of the mutually beneficial doulbe-sides' victory of part.Yet situation about showing is exactly that most trade companies lacks the consciousness of this respect, causes quality services provider too rare, thereby causes user's loss.Or a large amount of network waterborne troopies appears, make the service of oneself use the higher scoring of the inside acquisition through various means, but the but not follow-up of actual quality, thus user's distrust caused.
Generally speaking, in the prior art, aspect definite position, self can't locate non intelligent mobile phone, and the Mobile Phone Locating precision is generally relatively poor, and the location cost is generally higher, thereby the application of LBS service has been caused considerable restraint.In addition; Know at needs under the situation of approximate location of mobile phone that can't self poisoning; Those skilled in the art possibly consider to confirm earlier that mobile phone belongs to the position of the WAP of wireless range; Confirm the approximate location of mobile phone then according to this position, its precision approximates the radius of this wireless range.
