Abstract
Methods and systems for global navigation satellite system configuration of wireless communication applications may comprise determining a location of a wireless communication device (WCD) comprising a medium Earth orbit (MEO) radio frequency (RF) path and a low Earth orbit (LEO) RF path utilizing received LEO signals. A wireless function of the WCD may be configured based on the location, and may comprise a power level of WiFi circuitry in the WCD. The determined location and a transaction ID for the POS transaction may be stored utilizing a security processor. The MEO RF path may be powered down based on the determined location. The wireless function may comprise a synchronization of data on the WCD with devices in a home location. The WCD may comprise a femtocell device or a set-top box, and may be controlled by a reduced instruction set computing (RISC) central processing unit (CPU).
