Summary:A wireless notification device operable to define a region within a coverage area, the device comprising an identification code transmitter, a beam-forming subsystem and an antenna array. The beam-forming subsystem is operably coupled to the ID code transmitter and the antenna array. The beam-forming subsystem being operable to steer at least two antenna lobes such that they intersect each other within a region. The lobes transmitting an identification code identifying the region. A user device preferably within the region is arranged to receive the transmission of the identification code. The device preferably being arranged to perform a defined action based on the ID code received. The lobes preferably being steerable in orthogonal directions.
