1. An apparatus, including:

  • a path distance module associated with a mobile station (MS) in a wireless packet-carrying network to calculate a first distance (R1) between the MS and a first base station (BS1) using a first path loss value (L1), wherein L1 comprises a value of a reduction in signal strength of a signal as transmitted by the BS1 and as received by the MS and to calculate a second distance (R2) between the MS and a second base station (BS2) using a second path loss value (L2), wherein L2 comprises a value of a reduction in signal strength of a signal as transmitted by the BS2 and as received by the MS; and

    a triangulation module coupled to the path distance module to triangulate a position of the MS relative to a grid using R1 and R2.
