Abstract
Systems and method are provided for forming an integrated communication network. The network includes a plurality of locally distributed integrated communications modules (ICMs) which are placed at predetermined positions. The ICMs monitor a plurality of roaming communication devices that communicate using both the cellular communication network and the internet. Further, the integrated communication network forms a private database on the roaming sender communication device to allow data communication with a specifically identified roaming communication device.
Claims18
A method of performing a transaction through a server comprising a location module, a proximity module, and a communication interface, said method comprising:
- monitoring a plurality of roaming communication devices, wherein said roaming communication devices are adapted to communicate via a communication network;
- detecting, through the communication interface, a signal from a roaming communication device of the plurality of roaming communication devices, the signal specifying a proximity of the roaming communication device to a locally distributed communication module;
- retrieving device data regarding the roaming communication device based on the signal;
- determining, based on the proximity indicated by the signal, a position of the roaming communication device;
- identifying, based on at least the position, position-dependent data located within a predetermined distance from the roaming communication device;
- retrieving the identified position-dependent data;
- providing the position-dependent data to the roaming communication device;
- transmitting, through the communication interface, the device data to the locally distributed communication module related to the position-dependent data;
- receiving, through the communication interface, interaction data regarding at least one interaction between the roaming communication device and the locally distributed communication module;
- updating the device data based on the received interaction data;
- and
- transmitting, through the communication interface, the updated device data to the locally distributed communication module,
- wherein,
- the device data comprises a notification regarding the roaming communication device and an average time in which the roaming communication device resides at a site associated with the locally distributed communication module, and
- the updated device data comprises an optimized notification based on the received interaction data.
