The present invention is directed to the prevention of invalid access and
inappropriate information transfer by limiting the accessible range to
the information resource on a radio network. In one embodiment, a method
of providing access to an information unit by a wireless unit comprises
providing a first position information containing an access enabled area
for the wireless unit, wherein the access enabled area falls within a
range of communicable area of a wireless access point; and obtaining a
second position information containing a current position of the wireless
unit. If the current position of the wireless unit is within the access
enabled area for the wireless unit, access if permitting to the
information unit by the wireless unit. If the current position of the
wireless unit is outside the access enabled area for the wireless unit,
access to the information unit is denied by the wireless unit even if the
current position of the wireless unit is within the range of communicable
area of the access point.
