Abstract

Recently, various applications of location trigger service have been required and developed as users of location-based services are increasing. The location trigger is detecting event of entering in, existing in or leaving from pre-specified area, and then alerting by short message service, an e-mall or servicing other pre-defined action to mobile subscribers. The conventional methodology of supporting location trigger is detecting location trigger events as periodical requesting location of mobile communication terminal to location gateway server in mobile communication network. But these conventional methods cause mobile communication interruption when the location trigger services are overloaded; thereby inducing performance of core server to be fell off. So in this paper, we have studied a new location trigger technology, named multilevel location trigger, to reduce mobile core network sewer triggering bottleneck and power consumption caused embedded GPS device of mobile phone. Actually, as design and evaluating the performance of location trigger after building test-bed environment, we contribute toward improving echnology of location trigger.

위치기반서비스(LBS: Location-Based Services)의 이용자가 급증함으로써 최근 위치 트리거(Location Trigger) 서비스에 대한 다양한 응용분야가 등장하고 있다. 위치 트리거는 사용자의 이동 위치를 감지하여 특정한 지역에 진입, 존재, 이탈할 경우 사용자에게 단문문자서비스(SMS), 전자메일 등을 통하여 알리거나 또는 사용자에 의해 미리 정의된 특정한 서비스를 제공하는 기술이다 기존에 이러한 위치 트리거 기술은 위치 제공 서버에 주기적으로 위치정보를 요청하여 처리해 왔으나 LBS 서비스 가입자가 증가할수록 서버 및 통신 부하로 인하여 시스템의 성능 저하를 초래하게 된다. 이에 본 논문에서는 위치 트리거를 처리함에 있어서 이동통신망의 위치서버의 부하를 줄이고 모바일 단말기에 임베디드 된 GPS 디바이스의 전력 소모량을 최소화하는 멀티레벨 위치 트리거 방법에 대하여 연구하였다. 실제 본 논문에서 제시하는 방법을 설계하고 테스트베드를 구축하여 성능을 평가함으로써 위치 트리거 기술의 성능 향상에 기여하였다.
