Proxy Mobile Location Centre (XMLC)

The Mobile Arts Proxy Mobile Location Centre (XMLC) provides the external client interface to the users of the system, e.g. LBS Applications and Emergency Centres (112). The main client interface is the Mobile Location Protocol (MLP), which is standardized by the Open Mobile Alliance (OMA).

The Mobile Arts XMLC also connects to the Mobile Arts GMLC as well as external Mobile Location Centres for various roaming and interconnect scenarios.
Other functions provided by the Mobile Arts XMLC include:

  • Authentication and authorisation of MLC Clients
  • Triggered location reporting
  • Subscriber privacy handling
  • Message proxying
  • Charging

The Mobile Arts XMLC is included in all MLC system deployments, regardless of choice of location method(s), except for the case when only a stand-alone Mobile Arts SMLC is required.
