Claim 12:
13. A wireless cellular communication network, comprising:
a HLR database configured to interface with a mobile switching center (MSC) of the wireless cellular communication network, wherein the HLR database maintains (i) a mobile identification number (MIN), (ii) an international mobility equipment identifier (IMEI) of a mobile device, and (iii) data fields for a latitude and a longitude for a GPS location data of the mobile device;
the wireless communication network receives from the mobile device a registration request signal transmission which embeds the GPS location data of the mobile wireless cell phone device in the R-R record in addition to an international mobility equipment identifier (IMEI) data of the mobile wireless cell phone device in the R-R record when the mobile device has changed position from an immediate prior position exceeding a threshold distance; and
the wireless communication network transmits to the mobile device, a transmission signal strength that is computed by MSC in the wireless communication network, based on a distance, determined by the MSC, of a GPS location of the mobile device to cell towers in a cell area in which the mobile device is located.
