The client handset's location is not determined by the power. It's determined by timing. Higher power would only give more basestations ability to receive your signal and add greater resolution to their position solution.

- superkuh 6y agoThis isn't over the internet. This is a radio signal over the air. First, your phone sends out a radio signal omnidirectionally. Then many basestations that know their own position and time very accurately receive it at slightly different times. They compare and use multi-lateration to determine where the broadcast had to come from.
