ABSTRACT:
A wireless communication system and method for determination of the location of a location-incapable device of a decentralized wireless communication network. Upon receipt of location determination information, relevant to the location of the location-incapable device in the network and sufficient to perform a calculation of the location of the location-incapable device, a location-capable device of the network may calculate the location of the location-incapable device and make this information available to one or more devices of the network.
