<p>What is disclosed is a method of operating a wireless communication network (110, 300, 500) to authenticate a geographic location of a wireless communication device (130, 330, 530). The method includes transferring an authentication key for delivery to a service node (140, 340, 570), obtaining the geographic location of the wireless communication device (130, 330, 530), and authenticating the geographic location to create authenticated location information for the wireless communication device (130, 330, 530). The method also includes wirelessly transferring the authenticated location information to the wireless communication device (130, 330, 530), wirelessly receiving the authenticated location information from the wireless communication device (130, 330, 530) for delivery to the service node (140, 340, 570), and transferring the authenticated location information for delivery to the service node (140, 340, 570), wherein the service node (140, 340, 570) processes authenticated location information and the authentication key to identify the geographic location of the wireless communication device (130, 330, 530).</p> |
