How to get GET paramater in Angular2?

Question

By accessing myproject.dev/people?filter%5Bindustry%5D=finance&filter%5BstartWith%5D=a, Angular2 point the url to myproject.dev/people

Here is my RouteConfig:

@RouteConfig([
    {
        path: '/people',
        name: config.route.main,
        component: MainComponent,
        useAsDefault: true
    }
])

In MainComponent:

/// <reference path="../../../typings/angular2.d.ts" />

import {Component, Injector} from 'angular2/core';
import {ROUTER_DIRECTIVES, Router, RouteParams} from 'angular2/router';
import {BaseResourceComponent} from '../../Component/BaseResourceComponent';
import {Status as MainStatus} from '../../reusable/modules/status.svc';

import {Status} from '../../reusable/modules/status.svc';
import {Config} from "./Config";

import URI from 'urijs';

export class MainComponent extends BaseResourceComponent {
    constructor(config: Config, status: Status, mainStatus: MainStatus, private router: Router, private routeParams: RouteParams) {
        super(config, status, mainStatus);
    }

    onInit() {
        var path = new URI(window.location.href);
        path.setQuery('filter[industry]', 'fashion');
        path.setQuery('filter[startWith]', 'a');

        console.log(path);
        console.log(this.router);
        //this.router.root.lastNavigationAttempt = "/people?filter%5Bindustry%5D=finance&filter%5BstartWith%5D=a"

        console.log(this.routeParams);
        // this.routeParams returns {params: Object}
        // this.routeParams.params.get('filter') return null
    }
}

I still can get it from this.router.root.lastNavigationAttempt, but this is kind of tricky way to get it only. Any better way to get the GET parameters?

@Günter Zöchbauer is correct. Child route can only use matrix parameter but not query parameter.
