Abstract
The present invention relates to a system and method for providing services for mobile users based on location information. A plurality of devices is defined to form a group of devices. A first location information is determined, said first information associating with the location of at least one of the devices in the group. Second location information is also determined, said second information associating with the location of a station of the mobile user. The first and second information is processed to generate third information, said third information being based on the location of the station relative to the location of at least one device of the group. Third information is transported in a communication system after the transportation is triggered by a predefined condition.
