Dead zone for wireless communication device
First Claim
1. A communication system comprising:
- a wireless device capable of performing a function;
a network configured to communicate with the wireless device and a dead zone service;
a first register, maintained on the dead zone service connected to the network, the first register comprising a first database of first conditions in which the function of the wireless device is to be disabled, a first condition defined in the first database by an entry that defines the first condition;
the dead zone service configured to query whether the wireless device has met one of the first conditions defined in the first register and to disable the function of the wireless device when the wireless device has met one of the first conditions defined in the first register; and
a second register, the second register comprising a second database of second conditions in which the function of the wireless device is to be disabled, the second conditions defined in the second database by an entry that defines a second condition;
the wireless device configured to query whether it has met a second condition defined in the second register and to disable the function of the wireless device when it has met a second condition defined in the second register.

Abstract
A wireless device (WD) capable of performing a function; a first register (FR), maintained on a dead zone service (DZS) connected to a network, including a first database (FD) of first conditions (FCs) wherein the function of WD is to be disabled, a FC defined in FD by an entry that defines FC; DZS configured to query whether WD has met one of FCs defined in FR and to disable the function of WD when WD has met one of FCs defined in FR; a second register (SR) maintained on WD including a second database (SD) of second conditions (SCs) wherein the function of WD is to be disabled, the SCs defined in SD by an entry that defines a SC; WD configured to query whether it has met a SC defined in SR and to disable the function of WD when it has met a SC defined in SR.

14. A communication system comprising:
-
a wireless device capable of performing an action; a network configured to communicate with the wireless device and a dead zone service; a first register, maintained on the dead zone service connected to the network, the first register comprising a first database of first conditions in which the action of the wireless device is to be triggered, a first condition defined in the first database by an entry that defines the first condition; the dead zone service configured to query whether the wireless device has met one of the first conditions defined in the first register and to trigger the action of the wireless device when the wireless device has met one of the first conditions defined in the first register; and a second register, the second register comprising a second database of second conditions in which the action of the wireless device is to be triggered, the second conditions defined in the second database by an entry that defines a second condition; the wireless device configured to query whether it has met a second condition defined in the second register and to trigger the action of the wireless device when it has met a second condition defined in the second register. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 31)

30. A communication method comprising:
-
determining a first condition in which an action of a wireless device is to be triggered, the first condition defined in a first database of conditions, the first database maintained on a dead zone service connected to a network and providing a dead zone service to the wireless device; querying by the dead zone service whether the wireless device has met the first condition defined in the first database; triggering, by the dead zone service, the action of the wireless device when the wireless device has met the first condition defined in the first database; determining a second condition in which the action of the wireless device is to be triggered when the wireless device has met the second condition, the second condition defined in a second database; determining on the wireless device whether the wireless device has met the second condition defined in the second database; and triggering, by the wireless device, the action of the wireless device when the wireless device has met the second condition defined in the second database. - View Dependent Claims (32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45)
