Wireless device for receiving calls to automatically transmit messages of current device location

摘要

A wireless location tracking device (WLTD) includes a global position system (GPS) for receiving signals and generating data for determining a geographic location of the wireless location tracking device (WLTD). The WLTD further includes a transceiver for receiving an incoming call from a caller requesting a location of the wireless location tracking device. A processor includes a map database for receiving and applying data from the GPS to determine a geographic location of the WLTD in reference to the map database. The processor further controls the transceiver to automatically call back the caller for transmitting a short message to indicate the geographic location of the WLTD.
