Foreword
This Technical Specification (TS) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee Satellite Earth Stations and
Systems (SES).
The present document is part 3 of a multi-part deliverable covering GNSS-based Location Systems (GBLS), as
identified below:
Part 1: Functional requirements;
Part 2: Reference Architecture;
Part 3: Performance requirements;
Part 4: Requirements for location data exchange protocols;
Part 5: Performance test specification.
Modal verbs terminology
In the present document "shall", "shall not", "should", "should not", "may", "need not", "will", "will not", "can" and
"cannot" are to be interpreted as described in clause 3.2 of the ETSI Drafting Rules (Verbal forms for the expression of
provisions).
"must" and "must not" are NOT allowed in ETSI deliverables except when used in direct citation.
Introduction
The increasing proliferation of location-based services is based on several trends in user applications and devices; these
include notably the widespread adoption of multi-functional smart-phones etc., and the wider adoption of tracking
devices (e.g. in transport). This need for new and innovative location-based services is generating a need for
increasingly complex location systems. These systems are designed to deliver location-related information for one or
more location targets to user applications.
The wide spectrum of technical features identified in ETSI TR 103 183 [i.1] calls for a new and broader concept for
location systems, taking into account hybrid solutions in which GNSS technologies are complemented with other
technology sensors to improve robustness and the performance.

1 Scope
The present document addresses performance requirements for GNSS-based Location Systems (GBLSs) that combine
Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS - e.g. Galileo™) and other navigation technologies with telecommunication
networks for delivery of location-based services.
The present document defines Performance Features applicable to GBLS and specifies the conditions and requirements
for these Performance Features.
