Gateway Mobile Location Centre (GMLC)

Creativity Software’s GMLC solution can interconnect with third party SMLCs or can be delivered as part of a complete turnkey solution.

Our GMLC offers a range of deployment options, supports connectivity to the NSS via Lg and Lh interfaces or alternatively make use of the MAP ATI function. For IN environments, Push Mode location updates can be supported.

GMLC - How it works

Privacy is a critical issue in location based services. The Creativity Software GMLC performs authentication and authorisation checks in location requests received from the LCS to ensure privacy and adherence to permission policies.

GMLC_Architecture

The GMLC is based on industry-standard SS7 protocol stacks, supporting SIGTRAN interfaces for IP connectivity and TDM transport in legacy environments. Creativity Software’s GMLC can interconnect with third party SMLCs, or both can be provided as part of a turnkey solution. Creativity Software’s GMLC solution can also be configured as a fully standards-compliant MPC for CDMA networks.
