MPTP | MPTP commands 5
1. INTRODUCTION
MPTP (Mobile Phone Telematics Protocol) is a protocol developed by Twig Com Ltd. . It is a key for
building professional and consumer telematics solutions in GSM networks. MPTP provides sophisticated
telematics commands for service integrators and providers to build and provide various applications
utilising location information.
MPTP enables, for example, the sending of location, tracking and route messages between service
centers and Twig Com Ltd. MPTP enabled terminals. It uses SMS as bearer, and is fast and easy to
implement in service centers.
Application examples
• navigational directions
• geomessaging and mobile communities
• yellow pages with turn-by-turn instructions
• points of interest
• location-sensitive sponsored content
• fleet management
• staff management
• personal safety
• security
• healthcare
• sports and lifestyle
What about privacy?
There is general concern about privacy issues with the new location-based services. Can anybody track
my location through MPTP?
TWIG wireless instruments targeted for consumer markets require the consent of the user for his position
to be revealed to other persons or to services. Products targeted at vertical business or organisational
applications may be configured to authorize the service center to track the device. This is essential for e.g.
providing back-up safety to lone workers or tracking valuable assets.
