A Survey on Location Based Service Applications for Mobile Users

Abstract

Location-based applications are one of the most anticipated new segments of the mobile industry. These new applications are enabled by GPS-equipped phones and range from Emergency 911 (E-911) applications to buddy finders (e.g., "let me know when my friend is within 1000 feet") to games (e.g., treasure hunt) to location-based advertising (e.g., "enter the Starbucks to your left and get $1.00 off a Frappuccino"). These services are designed to give consumers instant access to personalized, local content. Some of these applications will couple LBS with notification services, automatically alerting users when they are close to a preselected destination. LBS proponents believe that these services will create new markets and new revenue opportunities for device manufacturers, wireless providers, and application developers. This paper provides the survey about Location Based service and its application for mobile users.
