Abstract
A wireless device system employs short-range wireless communication to require the proximity of a user device to a defined area prior to communicating a request or notification to the wireless user device. The system authenticates a request and the proximity of the user to or within the defined area prior to transmitting a command, request, or notification to the user or a third party. Additionally, the system uses an access node configured to shape the radiation pattern of short-range wireless communications to better determine the position of a user proximate in or around a defined area.
