D11.6: Survey on Mobile Identity
The deliverable in hand provides the results of an explorative survey on the
control model for identity related data in location-based services (LBS)
presented in FIDIS deliverable D11.2.
The survey was performed to explore the influence of LBS characteristics (pull
vs. push based, indirect vs. direct profile creation) on the perceived amount of
control participants have about the disclosure of their identity.
Four scenarios, each reflected a different aspect of the control model, have been
designed and tested.
Quality of location data
Since theses technologies differ a lot in the way they work and in their positioning accuracy, and give a brief overview of these characteristics. Furthermore, some of the limitations and possibilities to disturb or manipulate positioning technologies are presented (see ).
Technology | Accuracy | Note |
Satellite-based positioning systems: GPS, Galileo | >1m-15m |
|
Cell-based mobile Communication Networks: UMTS (3G), GSM (2G) | 25m – 30km |
|
Other wireless Technologies: Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), WiFi, Bluetooth | <1m – 50m |
|
Sensor-based Systems: Optical sensors (infrared-based), biometrics (face recognition) | Close proximity: |
|
Hybrid Systems | N/A |
|
Automated Teller Machines (ATM) | Direct contact with a ATM terminal |

Moreover, location information typically is generated in location systems, which typically consist of two or three types of components:
One or more devices sending location information to sensors – in the case where sensors do not operate optically.
Sensors to receive and transfer location and time information to static or mobile backend systems.
Backend systems interpreting and / or using location information.
Component one and two can be combined, for example in case of optical sensors such as video surveillance cameras, face recognition systems, or license plate scanners.
