Claim One:
1. A system for monitoring movement of two-way wireless terminals within a defined local space (DLS), the system comprising: a mathematically characterized defined local space (DLS) architecture, including: i) an array of at least four receivers that together identify a volume of the DLS; ii) at least one processor in communication with the array of receivers; the array of at least four receivers being operable with: i) at least one two-way wireless terminal; and ii) wherein the at least one two-way wireless terminal is operable with a base station, the base station being associated with a wireless service provider system, the base station being operable to periodically broadcast a series of request signals, the request signals being intended for one ore more of the at least one wireless terminal; wherein the DLS architecture is operable: i) during a first time interval to: (1) determine a first sampling of return signals intercepted with the array of at least four receivers, the first sampling of return signals transmitted by at least a first wireless terminal of the at least one wireless terminal while physically within the DLS during the first time interval in response to one or more of the request signals; and (2) log initial location information for the at least first wireless terminal within the DLS based on the first sampling of return signals; ii) during subsequent time intervals to: (1) determine at least one subsequent sampling of return signals intercepted with the array of at least four receivers, the at least one subsequent sampling of return signals being transmitted by the first wireless terminal while physically located within the DLS during one or more of the subsequent time intervals in response to one or more of the request signals; and (2) log subsequent location information for the first wireless terminal within the DLS based on the at least one subsequent sampling of return signals; and iii) to compare said initial location information to said subsequent location information to ascertain tracking movement of wireless terminals within the DLS.
