Location based sharing of a network access credential
First Claim
1. A system, comprising:
- a processor; and
a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising;
receiving a differential time measurement for a first user equipment associated with a first NodeB site pair of devices comprising a first NodeB device and a second NodeB device;
obtaining, based on the differential time measurement, a historical geographic location value corresponding to a historical differential timing measurement for the first NodeB site pair of devices;
obtaining a network access credential affiliated with the first user equipment based on the historical geographic location value, andin response to determining that a rule related to a spatial condition between the first user equipment and a second user equipment has been satisfied, enabling access by the second user equipment to the network access credential.

Abstract
A network access credential can be shared among devices based on location information for a device. Location information can include timed fingerprint location information. In an aspect, location information can be associated with a location of user equipment. This location information can be correlated with network access credentials. Location information can be used to access a relevant network access credential. The relevant network access credential can be shared with other devices. In an embodiment, sharing a network access credential can be between mobile devices. In another embodiment, sharing a network access credential can be between a remote computing device and a mobile device. Sharing a credential can allow for access to a network without having to generate or input new credentials.

12. A method, comprising:
-
receiving, by a network device comprising a processor, a differential time measurement for a first user equipment, wherein the differential time measurement is associated with a first NodeB site pair of devices comprising a first NodeB device and a second NodeB device; retrieving, by the network device, a historical geographic location value based on the differential time measurement and a historical differential timing measurement for the first NodeB site pair of devices; receiving, by the network device, a network access credential affiliated with the first user equipment; and enabling, by the network device, access to the network access credential for a second user equipment based on a determination that the first user equipment is within a determined distance of the second user equipment. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
-
receiving a differential time measurement for a first user equipment, wherein the differential time measurement is associated with a first NodeB site pair of devices comprising a first NodeB device and a second NodeB device; retrieving a historical geographic location value based on the differential time measurement and a historical differential timing measurement for the first NodeB site pair of devices; receiving a network access credential affiliated with the first user equipment; and enabling access to the network access credential for a second user equipment based on a determination that the first user equipment is within a determined range of the second user equipment. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
