CSR and Motorola Announce Intention to Form EGPS Forum to Advance and Improve Location Technologies

CSR and Motorola today announced that they intend to create an open
industry forum to evaluate and foster enhanced Global Positioning
System (EGPS) technologies. When used on a mobile device, EGPS
technologies augment GPS to provide timely and accurate position
information in demanding environments. The EGPS Forum is expected to
advocate improvement to location technologies in mobile devices and is
committed to meeting consumer and regulatory needs for precise and
consistent levels of location information.

Current
commercialized location technologies meet the basic needs of consumers
and minimum regulatory requirements for widespread use in mobile
phones. However, high value commercial services require location
technologies that provide prompt, consistent and reliable position
information, even indoors, within the limited power budget of a
portable device. Emergency services also require accurate indoor
positioning. The intended goal of the EGPS Forum will be to ensure that
technologies that enhance GPS are put in place to meet these advanced
requirements.

The EGPS Forum will be open to a broad array of participants from the
telecommunications industry, including handset manufacturers, location
technology companies, network infrastructure providers and mobile
network carriers. Initial activities of the Forum will focus on
evaluating hybrid technologies that enhance GPS by combining satellite
measurements with timing measurements taken from cellular networks and
on establishing the underlying infrastructure to ensure full
interoperability of this technology.

CSR’s Location Business Unit Vice President, Stuart Strickland
commented, “CSR is committed to delivering embedded location
technologies that meet the needs of consumers and portable device
makers.” Strickland continued, “By working as part of the EGPS Forum
with industry leaders such as Motorola, we expect to be able to extract
the full potential out of our own enhanced GPS technologies.”

“Motorola has been bringing innovative location based technologies to
our mobile devices for years,” Kevin Cole, Vice President, Device
Technology Engineering, Mobile Devices business, Motorola. “As interest
in mobile location services accelerates in 2008, we look forward to
working with CSR and other industry leaders to drive this technology
forward.”

CSR and Motorola expect the procedure for EGPS field trials and performance testing to be in place in the first half of 2008.
