Abstract
One of the important features of Communication System is to find the Location of a Person. Finding the location of Person is either through Internet or through Mobile Devices. Most of the valuable location-based services are enabled by this feature of Location Tracking. There are various Location technologies which can be used and implemented by telecommunication managers and engineers. The technologies are GPS, GPRS, and WiFi with android operating Systems. Location can also be searched without GPS through Internet. The paper briefly discussed GSM network and cellular data networks from point of view of IP Clients, used for finding location of mobile phone. Further, a paper determined the location through IPaddress, through mobile Number, through SMS, through facebook and also through google latitude. Finally the study compares the result that leads to conclusions and key issues for further research.
