In this paper, we propose a modular security approach using
a positioning security engine featuring GPS location features that can
uniquely identify the IoT user device. We propose the modular security
scheme to reinforce the security and viability of IoT-centric solutions for
various innovative applications, including IoT Mobile payment, Smart city
heterogeneous networks, communication services, safety, and locationbased services integration. To achieve our goal of securitization and
This paper introduces an assessment of mobile Internet of Things (IoT) devices embedded with Global Positioning Service (GPS) / Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) chip, envisioned to enhance positioning accuracy for safety and on-demand location aware user applications and architecture such as mobile payment applications. This paper extends previous works and proposes a detailed Hybrid assessment, coupling design and performance metrics of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) mobile IoT receivers.
