Original Abstract Submitted

A method, a system, an apparatus, and a computer program product for determining a location of a wireless device. One or more second wireless devices in a plurality of second wireless devices are configured for processing one or more communications exchanged with a first wireless device in a plurality of first wireless devices to determine a location of the first wireless device in an environment. One or more communications are processed using one or more second wireless devices. The location of the first wireless device in the environment is determined based on the processed one or more communications.
