| LBS |
Location-based services (LBS) are offered by some cell phone networks
as a way to send custom advertising and other information to cell-phone
subscribers based on their current location. The cell-phone service
provider gets the location from a GPS chip built into the phone, or using radiolocation and trilateration based on the signal-strength of the closest cell-phone towers (for phones without GPS features).
