Abstract: A method for tracking events such as financial transactions, the status of merchandise orders, and the like, whereby, upon receipt of data describing at least one aspect of an event, at least one wireless receiver is identified to send at least a portion of the data to. The data is sent via a wireless communication network for transmission to the at least one wireless receiver.

Abstract: The foregoing objects are achieved as is now described. A method for evaluating frequency plans for a CDMA based communication system having fixed base radio telephones is provided. The method begins by determining locations of a plurality of antennas. The plurality of antennas provide a coverage area for radio telephones. Then the method generates locations of radio telephones within the coverage area. Next, a distance from each radio telephone to the antennas is calculated. Then frequencies are allocated to the antennas. The resulting communication parameters between the radio telephones and the antennas are evaluated. Next, the coverage area which provides optimum power control to each radio telephone is determined. A frequency reuse factor is calculated to determine the efficiency of the allocated frequencies such that frequency allocation plans can be analyzed to determine efficient frequency planning.
