(ASE:CLQ), a leading wireless location technology provider, announced today that it has completed the First Phase CDMA Trial of the Cellocate System(TM) - PCS/CDMA after three months of rigorous testing. Results of digital wireless location include an accuracy of 90 metres RMS (Root Mean Square) with the majority of locates occurring at less than 55 metres. Several patent applications pertaining to the trial are under preparation. ''Our goal is to locate the majority of PCS/CDMA telephones to within 10 metres,'' said Dr. Michel Fattouche, cofounder, president & CEO. ''We see this as a very realistic goal given that we have already achieved accuracies as good as 15 metres on many occasions. Cell-Loc is initiating a Second Phase CDMA trial with the intent towards achieving this accuracy in the very near future.'' ''The Cellocate System appeals to many industries globally which is why we are bombarded by interested customers from every continent in the world,'' explains Dr. Fattouche. ''Our PCS/CDMA trial results of better than 55 metres indicate that the Cellocate System is the wireless location of choice because there is no modification required to the telephone or cellular infrastructure which means the consumer does not have additional capital costs and is not inconvenienced. Possibly of greatest significance is that there are no changes required to the industry CDMA standard. In my opinion, the Cellocate System offers the most cost effective location solution available.'' According to several wireless telecommunications reports, worldwide CDMA subscribership will top 70 million in the next year. ''With a minimum of 70 million digital subscribers in the world and 300 million analog subscribers, the opportunity to deploy end-user applications pertaining to E911, personal security, public safety, and fleet management remains very optimistic,'' said Mr. Jim George, vice president of marketing and business development. ''Because the Cellocate System can be deployed in a carrier's network or can be a stand alone solution, we have many options with respect to deploying our technology to exploit the emerging wireless location market.'' Dr. Fattouche concludes, ''With continuous access to a live network in certain urban centres, Cell-Loc's digital (CDMA, TDMA, GSM, iDEN) product development is moving along rapidly. We are the first and only to have sold network-based wireless location technology in analog and we are well on our way to commercializing the CDMA version. We will release a formal PCS/CDMA test trial summary at the upcoming PCS'99 Tradeshow and Convention in New Orleans, LA next month at Booth No.821.''
