Locus A-MLC usage is inexpensive

No additional investments are needed

Locus A-MLC is a self-contained product, including everything necessary for high-quality mobile positioning. No changes or upgrades are needed in radio network, core network, or in mobile phones even for a high-capacity usage. The total investment is the cost of Locus A-MLC.

The license price is very competitive

The CAPEX (Capital Expenses) of the mobile location system consists mostly of the license price of the system. Locus A-MLC is priced very competitively, just a fraction of competitors’ prices, and starting with a very low initial investment.

Competitiveness is a result of efficiency

The operator-friendly pricing model is enabled by Locus Portal’s sharp focus and commitment to keep its organisation streamlined and competent. This allows very competitive pricing for the benefit of Locus Portal’s customers.

Operational efficiency

A common challenge in the deployment and maintenance of a mobile positioning system is the availability of high-quality and up-to-date network configuration information. The maintenance and optimisation of the network and changes in the physical environment all impact the location estimation process. For high quality positioning, the up-to-date configuration information must be available. Failure to prove this information results in poor accuracy and reliability.

Locus A-MLC fully automates the process of obtaining feedback from the field. This information, such as actual best serving area and hand-over behaviour, is used in location calculation. The automatic feedback can refine and correct inaccurate configuration information such as base station coordinates, antenna bearings, and best serving areas.

Operator-friendly pricing model

The operator-friendly pricing model allows complete flexibility in revenue model planning for the operator. The pricing of Locus A-MLC is completely flat rate. There are no hidden costs that might prove expensive as the business grows. There are no transaction capacity fees and no cost on the number of transactions performed. Together with high capacity and low network load Locus A-MLC allows for innovative business models and high-usage high-value services.
