Acknowledgment}

I would like to thank my supervisors Konrad Meier and Dennis Wehrle for their 
help and encouragement during the thesis. Besides the help from my supervisors I
would like to thank my family and friends who supported me through my master's degree, and 
the entire Communication Systems department for their support, free coffee and
to Prof. Dr. Gerhard Schneider for making all the required hardware available. I would like
to thank Prof. Dr. Christian Schindelhauer for writing the recommendation letter so that the DAAD
could extend my scholarship and stay in Freiburg.
I would like to thank my friend Mirza Hamza from the Telecommunications department on the faculty
of Electrical Engineering in Sarajevo for proofreading the AGPS chapter.
I would like to thank Sebastian Schmelzer for
his LaTeX tips, Michael Pereira Neves and Jonathan Bauer for lending me their cell
phones to test my localization system as well as Johan Latocha for patiently explaining
words I did not understand in the German language and for showing me Inkscape. 
I would like to thank Richard Zahoransky 
for the helpful discussions about various GSM topics. Thanks to Holger Hans Peter Freyther 
as well, who gave me tips on how to modify OpenBSC to make an independent data channel interface
with a cell phone. Things which have not been done before
are always intellectually seductive and this kept me motivated and working during the tough
periods.

\section*{Abstract}
This thesis examines the possibility to localize mobile users inside of GSM networks.
While the number of mobile users grow it is possible to provide them with assistance
information with regard to their location and increase profits. The GPS receivers inside
of smart phones are exploited to provide the position. This work investigates
how complicated it is to implement the localization protocol RRLP inside of the existing
GSM networks and to provide assistance data for the GPS receivers to deliver faster 
and more accurate positions. To obtain the estimated positions two GSM hardware platforms
have been deployed, dedicated and undedicated GSM hardware. Software for processing 
assistance data has been developed. The generated data by the developed software were 
sent to the employed smart phones. More than half of the tested smart phones delivered
their position. The obtained results provide a study how the localization system 
could be deployed for assisting GSM users in avoidance of traffic jams as well as
the risks of such systems if it is abused.
