The Research on the Tracking and Positioning Platform Based on the Android Smartphone

Abstract

The 3G era, the smartphone market share is higher and higher. The mobile phone based on the Android platform accounts for more than half of the market share. Once the user lost the phone, it is not only hard to find, but also to face important data leak and privacy security issues. So, the demand to provide mobile phone found function appears increasingly urgent. If the mobile phone is lost, this platform can get information on replaced mobile phone SIM card to boot for the first time, and upload the new mobile phone number and current phone location information to the server. It provides users with inquiry function on the web in order to achieve the purpose of tracking the lost mobile phone. The application prospect of this study is widespread, not only limited to track the missing phone, also involves other position service in the life need. The relevant mobile localization algorithm is detailed in this paper.
