Abstract:
An apparatus and method for providing location information within a wireless network operable to obfuscate location information is described. The apparatus and method comprising a processor and memory coupled to the processor capable of storing data. The processor is configured to: store network profile data on a plurality of wireless network access points within the network. The network profile data including an identifier for the network access point, signal information, the physical location of the network access point, and the time. The processor is also configured to receive a request for location information from a client application executing on a mobile device, the request including information on the wireless network access points the mobile wireless device has been in communication with, information on the received signal and the time of the communication. The processor then determines the location of the mobile wireless device using the request data and the network profile data; and sends the location to the client application.

Claim (Index 18):
A method of calculating the location of a mobile wireless device within a wireless network, the wireless network operable to obfuscate location information, the method comprising:\n storing network profile data about a plurality of wireless network access points within the network that the mobile wireless device has been in communication with, the network profile data for each wireless network access point including:\n an identifier for the network access point; \n signal profile information; and \n the time the mobile wireless device was in communication with the network access point; \n requesting from a server, wireless network access point information, data provided with the request including;\n a mobile wireless device identifier; and \n for each wireless network access point information is requested on:\n an identifier for the network access point; and \n the time or times the mobile wireless device was in communication with the network access point; \n \n receiving from the server wireless network access point information, the wireless network access point information including:\n an identifier for the network access point, \n the time or times the mobile wireless device was in communication with the network access point; and \n for each time, signal information and location information; and \n determining the location of the mobile wireless device using the request data and the received wireless network access point information.
