ABSTRACT:
A method and system for location-aware wireless mobile devices including a mobile user network interfaces and protocol. A network-independent location-aware network protocol provides communication with location-aware wireless mobile devices. The protocol is network-independent to support and deliver location-aware services over virtually any wireless or wired network transparently regardless of the protocols being used on a transport network. The protocol is location-aware of current geographic locations of plural wireless mobile devices. Alert information is provided to a location-aware wireless mobile device with the network-independent location-aware network protocol and interfaces. Location-aware wireless mobile devices are located and provided with alert information with the network-independent location-aware network protocol and interfaces. The method, system, interfaces and protocol may help improve usability of mobile devices by allowing the mobile devices to be location-aware.
