Abstract:
A system for identifying audio signatures from user equipment based on a plurality of transmissions from a plurality of user equipment (UE). Each transmission of the plurality of transmissions comprises an audio signature, a geolocation of the audio signature, and a timestamp of the audio signature. The identification of audio signatures may be used to identify a geolocation of a UE or UEs based on geohashed areas. This identification may be further employed to determine whether the UE is in a location that permits data transmission, and to either transmit data to the UE based on a determination that the UE is in a location that permits data transmission, or not transmitting data the UE is associated with a DO NOT SEND state or if a location type associated with the geohashed area and the timestamp is associated with the DO NOT SEND state.
