A-GPS client implementation

Legacy Open AT
1

Hi,

I was working with an Q2686 and I want to implement something like an A-GPS client. I don’t need a exactly positioning, only near positioning.

There is no problem to implement it on Q2686 or in software PC. The Q2686 can send cells parameters to a remote server and this remote server make geolocation.

I know that I can cell info with “AT+CCED” command, but I don’t know how can I implement the A-GPS client in Q2686 nor remote server. I googled so much as I can, but I only get some A-GPS server address, but I don’t know how can I connect with them…

Can you help me?

Thanks in advance…

What, exactly, does that mean?

You keep saying “GPS”, but it sounds like you don’t want to use GPS at all - is that right?

You just want something based on GSM cell location - yes?

I think it involves paying them some money - then they will grant you access to their services…

Hi,

Thanks for your answer…

Yes, I want GSM cell location. With Q2686 and AT+CCED I can get cell information and power, then I’m trying to use google GeolocationAPI ( code.google.com/p/gears/wiki/GeolocationAPI ), but I’m not sure how can I use this, I’m trying some things, but I can obtain any response diferent of ERROR when trying to make the HTTP POST.

This is my sequence command:

AT+WIPCFG=1

OK

AT+WIPBR=1,6

OK

AT+WIPBR=2,6,11,“airtelnet.es”

OK

AT+WIPBR=2,6,0,“vodafone”

OK

AT+WIPBR=2,6,1,“vodafone”

OK

AT+WIPBR=4,6,0

OK
AT+WIPCREATE=5,1,“http://www.google.com/loc/json",80,"","”

OK

+WIPREADY: 5, 1
AT+WIPOPT=5,1,1,51

+WIPOPT: 5,51,0

OK
AT+WIPOPT=5,1,2,53,6

OK

ERROR

Do you have any idea???

if you enable the error number, you might find out what is wrong with your request

AT+CMEE=1

You really need to find out how to use it first!

Once you know how to use it, then you can start thinking about how ot implement that on a Q26 using WIPsoft.

Hi!

This is the form I can obtain response:

Using a PC software I send this HTTP POST (I add one image of software):

fd60db4247373fa1ce66f6993b001023e10a2329.PNG576×612 24.5 KB

POST: google.com/loc/json : HTTP/1.1

Headers:
Host: google.com
Content-Length:228

Request Body:
{“version”:“1.1.0”,“host”:“maps.google.com”,“cell_towers”:[{“age”:0,“signal_strength”:-87,“cell_id”:31781,“location_area_code”:39501,“mobile_country_code”:214,“mobile_network_code”:01}]}

And then, I get good response:

7f
{“location”:{“latitude”:39.460416,“longitude”:-0.401935,“accuracy”:621.0},“access_token”:“2:tyDY56DZ5Q9-IeYi:nv_ZyGyv_zLWU1zB”}
0

But when I try the same with Q26 I allways get an error (CME: 839) and I don’t know what is the problem…

Thanks in advance,

Hi,

I advanced a little more, the error was because the url address had not the “http://” then, I can connect, but I get bad response:

AT+WIPFILE=5,1,4,“http://www.google.com/loc/json","","",“Host”,“www.google.com”,“Content-Length”,"186”

CONNECT
