  • GSM (2G) and UMTS (3G) urban measurement data for cellular-based positioning. The data has been collected in Tampere city, Finland with a mobile phone with proprietary software. The data is given in Matlab *mat format and it contains a cell variable called BS_grid* which shows the GPS coordinates (x,y,z) (converted in local coordinates, in meter values) and the collected RSS value (in dB) per transmitter (i.e., BS or Node B). Each cell contains a N x 4 matrix, whose rows are [x y z RSS]. N is the number of measurements points in which the corresponding Base Station were heard. The size of the BS_grid* cells is equal to the number of heard Base Stations in the measured area. Example of research results based on these measurements can be found for example in: H. Nurminen, J.
