Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A location-transmitting device autonomously transmits a signal containing location data for the location-transmitting device to any nearby wireless communication device. The wireless communication device may then transmit said location data to a third party, such as an E-911 dispatch center or a provider of a commercial location-based service.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
I claim: 1. In a wireless communication device, a method of transmitting location data for a location of the wireless communication device, the method comprising: using a short range radio communication protocol to receive, without prior interrogation, radio signals from any nearby autonomously transmitting radio-transmitting device; detecting the location data in a single radio signal from a nearby autonomously transmitting radio-transmitting device disposed at the location,…
