BlueSky Positioning’s product, A-GPS SIM, is the world’s first Assisted-GPS module for SIM cards. Together with GSM or 3G phones, it forms a complete network assisted GPS receiver capable of locating the handset quickly and accurately.

The A-GPS SIM card complies with GSM and 3G  standards and thus works with legacy GSM and 3G handsets without the need for modifications or additional software.

The A-GPS SIM exploits a major technology breakthrough made by the company, including a proprietary In-SIM antenna (patents pending).

No software or hardware changes are needed for legacy handsets. The A-GPS SIM supports E-112 and E-911 Emergency Call Positioning and enables SIM, Mobile and Network based LBS applications.  It’s faster, it’s targeted, and it costs the operator a small fraction of the cost of a new handset.

BlueSky Positioning’s A-GPS solution for (U)SIM appears as a SIM/USIM Toolkit application, providing remote positioning support and enabling mobile operators to provide emergency call location information to meet the EU legislation rapidly and economically, as well as providing the capability for commercial LBS applications.

A-GPS SIM also enables operators to introduce new value-added services for the mass market based on A-GPS without waiting for mass market deployment of A-GPS handsets. At the same time operators can build critical mass for LBS applications, creating services to differentiate and deliver new services and create revenue streams.
