Analysis of a Mobile Phone Location in the Coastal Cellular Distress System

In this paper the unique coastal cellular distress system (CCDS), based on a cellular phone network was proposed. The concept and functional properties of the system were described. The problem of calculation of the geographical position of a mobile phone in a coastal sea zone was analysed. The geographical location accuracy of the mobile phone in a coastal sea area was investigated. The measurement results of the location platform efficiency were presented.
