Location notification method, location notification system, information processing apparatus, wireless communication apparatus, and program
First Claim
1. A location notification method comprising the steps of:
- inputting location information indicating a given location;
acquiring base station information, containing a base station ID, of a base station transmitting a radio wave having a wave reaching range including the location indicated by the location information, from a first memory storing a plurality of pieces of base station information of base stations;
recording the base station information acquired from the first memory into a second memory placed in a wireless communication apparatus;
receiving a radio wave containing a base station ID from a surrounding base station by the wireless communication apparatus;
determining whether the wireless communication apparatus exists in the location indicated by the location information based on the radio wave received by the wireless communication apparatus and the base station information stored in the second memory; and
performing prescribed notification processing based on a determination result whether the wireless communication apparatus exists in the location indicated by the location information.
