Method and system for location-based communication
A method and system for location-based communication. A selection of a source transceiver from a plurality of available transceivers associated with a source may be received. A telephony session may be initiated with the selected source transceiver. A mobile target transceiver may be geographically located. A result of the geographic location regarding the located mobile target transceiver may be provided. The located mobile target transceiver may be connected to the telephony session.
1. A method comprising:
obtaining, by a processor of a system, from a service provider, a geographic location of a target mobile device;
providing, by the processor, the geographic location of the target mobile device to an internet-protocol-television device for display by the internet-protocol-television device; and
sending, by the processor, an instruction to the target mobile device for a user of the target mobile device to leave the geographic location.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving, from a source transceiver associated with the internet-protocol-television device, a request to initiate a telephone session between the target mobile device and the source transceiver associated with the internet-protocol-television device; and

5. The method of claim 4 , further comprising sending the request to obtain the geographic location to the target mobile device.
6. The method of claim 4 , further comprising sending, in response to the request to obtain the geographic location of the target mobile device, a notification to the target mobile device that a location search for the geographic location of the target mobile device is being conducted.
7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving updates on the geographic location of the target mobile device from the service provider; and
providing updates of the geographic location of the target mobile device to the internet-protocol-television device.
8. A system comprising:
a processor; and
a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations comprising:
obtaining a geographic location of a target mobile device from a service provider,
providing the geographic location of the target mobile device to an internet-protocol-television device for display by the internet-protocol-television device, and
sending an instruction to the target mobile device for a user of the target mobile device to leave the geographic location.
9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise:
receiving, from a source transceiver associated with the internet-protocol-television device, a request to initiate a telephone session between the target mobile device and the source transceiver associated with the internet-protocol-television device; and
initiating the telephone session between the target mobile device and the source transceiver associated with the internet-protocol-television device.
10. The system of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise:
receiving a directions request relating to the geographic location of the target mobile device; and
providing, to the target mobile device, directions between the geographic location and a target location.
11. The system of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise receiving, from a source transceiver associated with the internet-protocol-television device, a request to obtain the geographic location of the target mobile device.
12. The system of claim 11 , wherein the operations further comprise sending the request to obtain the geographic location to the target mobile device.
13. The system of claim 11 , wherein the operations further comprise sending, in response to the request to obtain the geographic location of the target mobile device, a notification to the target mobile device that a location search for the geographic location of the target mobile device is being conducted.
14. The system of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise:
receiving updates on the geographic location of the target mobile device from the service provider; and
providing updates of the geographic location of the target mobile device to the internet-protocol-television device.
15. A memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, facilitate performance of operations comprising:
obtaining a geographic location of a target mobile device from a service provider;
providing the geographic location of the target mobile device to an internet-protocol-television device for display by the internet-protocol-television device; and
sending an instruction to the target mobile device for a user of the target mobile device to leave the geographic location.
16. The memory of claim 15 , wherein the operations further comprise:
receiving, from a source transceiver associated with the internet-protocol-television device, a request to initiate a telephone session between the target mobile device and the source transceiver associated with the internet-protocol-television device; and
initiating the telephone session between the target mobile device and the source transceiver associated with the internet-protocol-television device.
17. The memory of claim 15 , wherein the operations further comprise:
receiving a directions request relating to the geographic location of the target mobile device; and
providing, to the target mobile device, directions between the geographic location and a target location.
18. The memory of claim 15 , wherein the operations further comprise receiving, from a source transceiver associated with the internet-protocol-television device, a request to obtain the geographic location of the target mobile device.
19. The memory of claim 18 , wherein the operations further comprise sending the request to obtain the geographic location to the target mobile device.
20. The memory of claim 18 , wherein the operations further comprise sending, in response to the request to obtain the geographic location of the target mobile device, a notification to the target mobile device that a location search for the geographic location of the target mobile device is being conducted.
