| Zusammenfassung: | In a packet switched network, an address is allocated to a user of the packet switched network. The address includes information identifying the geographical location of the user, such as longitude, lattitude, and altitude. The address is used to route data packets over the network from a remote location to the user, taking into account the geographic location of each router in relation to the location of the user. A method of allocating the address to the user includes determining the geographical location of the user using a Global Positioning System receiver and generating an address based on the determined geographical location. |
