An alternative to GPS is strategically worthwhile but changing to a system that supports BPS is questionable. I wonder if it is something that could be built into DAB transmitters. The main issue, as I see it, is can UK terrestrial networks support this? Is there enough transmitter overlap to facilitate a working level of triangulation? A system built from scratch on cellular networks might be more appropriate.
