    Abstract: Disclosed is an exemplary guided surface waveguide probe. In one embodiment, the guided surface waveguide probe comprises a charge terminal elevated to a height above the lossy conducting medium; a support structure that supports the charge terminal; an internal coil that is supported within the support structure and is coupled to an excitation source; a conductive tube having a first end conductively coupled to the at least one section of internal coil, wherein a second end of the conductive tube extends vertically towards and is electrically coupled to the charge terminal; at least one sensor electrically coupled to the charge terminal or the internal coil, wherein the at least one sensor measures an operational parameter of the guided surface waveguide probe; and a non-conductive channel connected to the at least one sensor by which data associated with the operational parameter is communicated.

    Abstract: Disclosed are various approaches for determining device locations using guided surface waves. A system (406), may include a guided surface wave receive structure (R), a processor (1003), a memory (529, 1006), and an application (533) stored in the memory executable by the processor. The application may cause the system to decode a message included in a guided surface wave received with the guided surface wave receive structure, wherein the message defines an authorized area (603) for the system. The application may then cause the system to determine a current location of the system. Subsequently, the application may cause the system to determine that the current location of the system is outside of the authorized area.
