1. A positioning device coupled to a network, comprising:
- a positioning portion configured to perform a position calculation for the positioning device using position signals received from a plurality of navigation beacons,a receiver portion;
a transmitter portion;
a processor coupled to the receiver portion and transmitter portion; and
a memory coupled to the processor to store one or more instruction sequences, said instruction sequences to cause the positioning device to communicate wirelessly with a second positioning device by securely transmitting communication signals to the second positioning device using one or more spatial parameters unique to the second positioning device, wherein the communication signals provide frequency and signal phase assistance used by the positioning portion to detect attenuated position signals from said plurality of navigation beacons.
