Abstract
A wireless service delivery system determines the position of a device requesting the wireless service and delivers a wireless service to the device if the device's position is determined to fall within a predefined region of a space. The wireless service delivery may deliver no service or a lower quality/slower service if the device is determined to fall outside the predefined region of the space. The coordinates of the points along the perimeter of the predefined region are stored in a memory and are optionally established during a setup phase by moving a localization device along the perimeter of the region of the space.
