Abstract: A digital cellular telephone circuit contains a GPS (Global Positioning System) location circuit, which generates a location code indication signal transmitted to a cellular signal processing station communication server at a local cell base station, when a transmission (telephone call) is placed or received by a cellular user. A program on the server interrogates appropriate ones of various stored databases which contain location information for cell transmission inhibit. Monitoring and control software in the communications server compares the cellular telephone's GPS location against the stored databases of transmission inhibit locations. Such inhibit locations may include GPS highways locations, restricted commerce GPS locations, restricted activity selection, and others. If location or activity transmission inhibit data is found, the control software looks for the presence of an override signal bit. A rejection tone or message may be sent when calls are rejected.
