The use of historic cell site evidence doesn't require it to pinpoint the exact spot where the mobile phone was used. The evidential supporting materials do have to stack up though but at the same time avoid assumptions being made on "thin" evidence.Circumstantial evidence - mobile phone /giffgaff / cell site:http://www.bailii.org/cgi-bin/markup.cgi?doc=/ew/cases/EWCA/Crim/2013/1916.

We have all read various views expressed by those involved in the US that location data are not kept and it is all too difficult to get any sort of data. Have a read of the article below and maybe ask yourself if the authors of this article are aware that such location data does exists and are retained why others have expressed in other forums such data doesn't exist or if the data did exist

Members of the European Parliament have presented a persuasive first stage plan, based upon reduction of waste and consumer easy for charger migration when changing to a new handset, to the Council of Members for the need for a universal charger for all new mobiles sold into the EU.2012/0283(COD)26.4.2013***IDRAFT REPORTon the proposal for a directive of the European Parliament and of the Council

When a mobile/smart phone's power button is pressed the mobile triggers the power up sequence. The mobile station MS is in the radio darkness (ignorant) at this stage about the radio coverage that surrounds it in the geographical area in which it has been switched ON. Once switched on, the mobile device will seek to establish, using the embedded routines in its radio program that will enable it

A fundamental and vital goal of any mobile communication network is to maintain communications between the network and the mobile station (MS), whether the MS is dwelling in an area or on the move. To assist the aims and objectives GSM is commonly known to use 'Handover' for which there is a specific GSM standard TS03.09 [cf W-CDMA see 3GPP TS23.009].The assumption being made for these cause

GPRS CSA http://cellsiteanalysis.blogspot.co.uk/2013/11/gprs-csa.html

There are often forum discussions about GPRS (general packet radio switching) and how to conduct CSA (cell site analysis). Given that GPRS is expected to form a basic data service across GSM/WCDMA/LTE it is always worth starting at the beginning with GSM/GPRS as GPRS has numerous influences on GSM that have evolved for today's mobile networks.As the old adage goes "time and tide wait for no man"
