Abstract

A method for tracking a location of a mobile communication device having a processor, a memory, a transceiver, and a display includes communicating, by the transceiver, with a wireless apparatus. The method also includes storing location information of the mobile communication device in response to the transceiver one of connecting to and disconnecting from the wireless apparatus. The method further includes displaying the location information on the display.

Claims (35)

1 . A method for tracking a location of a mobile communication device, the mobile communication device including a processor, a memory, a transceiver, and a display, the method comprising:

communicating, by the transceiver, with a wireless apparatus;

storing location information of the mobile communication device in response to the transceiver one of connecting to and disconnecting from the wireless apparatus; and

displaying the location information on the display.

2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein storing the location information includes storing a first location information of the mobile communication device in response to the transceiver connecting to the wireless apparatus, and storing a second location information of the mobile communication device in response to the transceiver disconnecting from the wireless apparatus.

3 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

storing a plurality of location information of the mobile communication device in response to each time the transceiver one of connects to and disconnects from the wireless apparatus; and

displaying the plurality of location information on the display.

4 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

storing a plurality of location information of the mobile communication device in response to each time the transceiver connects to the wireless apparatus and each time the transceiver disconnects from the wireless apparatus; and

displaying the plurality of location information on the display.

5 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving, by the transceiver, the location information of the mobile communication device.

6 . The method of claim 5 , wherein receiving the location information includes receiving GPS location information of the mobile communication device.

7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein storing the location information includes storing GPS location information of the mobile communication device.

8 . The method of claim 7 , wherein storing the GPS location information also includes storing a date and a time of when the transceiver one of connected to and disconnected from the wireless apparatus.

9 . The method of claim 1 , wherein storing the location information includes storing the location information of the mobile communication device in the memory.

10 . The method of claim 1 , wherein displaying the location information includes generating a map on the display, the map including an indicator that identifies a position of the location information on the map.

11 . The method of claim 10 , wherein displaying the location information also includes displaying a date and a time associated with the indicator of when the transceiver one of connected to and disconnected from the wireless apparatus.

12 . The method of claim 1 , wherein storing the location information includes storing the location information of the mobile communication device only in response to the transceiver one of connecting to and disconnecting from the wireless apparatus.

13 . A non-transitory computer program product comprising a computer usable medium having a computer-readable program code stored thereon, the computer-readable program code comprising instructions that, when executed by a mobile communication device having a processor, a memory, a transceiver, and a display, cause the mobile communication device to:

communicate, by the transceiver, with a wireless apparatus;

store location information of the mobile communication device in response to the transceiver one of connecting to and disconnecting from the wireless apparatus; and

display the location information on the display.

14 . A mobile communication device that is configured to communicate with a wireless apparatus, the mobile communication device comprising:

a processor;

a transceiver coupled to the processor and operable to communicate with the wireless apparatus;

a memory coupled to the processor and operable to store location information of the mobile communication device in response to the transceiver one of connecting to and disconnecting from the wireless apparatus; and

a display coupled to the processor and operable to display the location information.

15 . A system comprising:

a wireless apparatus including a first transceiver; and

a mobile communication device including

a processor,

a second transceiver coupled to the processor and operable to communicate with the first transceiver of the wireless apparatus,

a memory coupled to the processor and operable to store location information of the mobile communication device in response to the second transceiver one of connecting to and disconnecting from the first transceiver of the wireless apparatus, and

a display coupled to the processor and operable to display the location information.
