1. A system comprising:
- power logic arranged to detect disconnection of fixed-position power to the system and to detect connection of fixed-position power to the system, wherein the detected connection of fixed-position power occurs after the detected disconnection of fixed-position power to the system;
a back-up power source for operation of the power logic while fixed-position power to the system is disconnected;
location logic arranged to determine a current location of the system;
data storage for storing a time-threshold;
time logic arranged to determine, in response to the detected connection of fixed-position power to the system, that fixed-position power to the system had been disconnected for a time-duration that exceeds the time-threshold; and
a communication interface arranged to provide a network entity with the current location, wherein the communication interface provides the network entity with the current location in response to the determination that fixed-position power to the system had been disconnected for a time-duration that exceeds the time threshold.

Abstract
A method, system, and apparatus for initiating a communication between a fixed wireless device and a network entity. A wireless local loop hub or other fixed wireless device upon being reconnected to fixed-position power, will determine if fixed-position power was disconnected for a time-duration exceeding a time-threshold, and if so, responsively initiating a communication with a network entity in order to communicate information regarding the wireless local loop hub or other fixed wireless device.

11. A method carried out at a wireless local loop hub, the method comprising:
-
storing a time-threshold at a data storage; disconnecting fixed-position power to the wireless local loop hub; while fixed-position power to the wireless local loop hub is disconnected, the wireless local loop hub (i) providing back-up power for the wireless local loop hub to use while fixed-position power is disconnected, and (ii) detecting the disconnection of fixed-position power to the wireless local loop hub; after detecting the disconnection of fixed-position power to the wireless local loop hub, connecting fixed-position power to the wireless local loop hub, while fixed-position power is connected to the wireless local loop hub, the wireless local loop hub detecting the connection of fixed-position power to the wireless local loop hub and then determining that fixed-position power to the wireless local loop hub had been disconnected for a time-duration that exceeds the time-threshold stored at the data storage; determining a current location of the wireless local loop hub; and in response to determining that fixed-position power to the wireless local loop hub had been disconnected for the time-duration that exceeds the time-threshold, providing to a network entity the current location of the wireless local loop hub. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
