Claim 0:
1. A method for provisioning an access point device of a network using an equivalent isotropically radiated power (EIRP) mask comprising:
determining that an accelerometer and a magnetometer of a mobile network device are calibrated;
performing a query of a global positioning system (GPS) receiver of the mobile network device for a GPS fix;
sampling, until the GPS fix is obtained, from the magnetometer and the accelerometer to obtain sensor data, wherein the sensor data comprises a magnetic direction associated with each sampling of the magnetometer and a plurality of coordinates for each sampling of the accelerometer, wherein the GPS fix is based the sensor data;
determining a height measurement associated with the access point device;
determining a virtual location of the access point device based on the height measurement and the GPS fix;
transmitting the virtual location to an automated frequency coordination (AFC) resource;
receiving the EIRP mask from the AFC resource; and
provisioning the access point device based the EIRP mask.
