Radio here refers to your mobile (non-wifi) wireless connection, though technically, Wi-Fi is also radio and can be used for triangulation purposes by access points. Technically speaking, any communications method that uses electromagnetic waves is radio, regardless of modulation and data encoding.

I can use WIFI with Airplane mode, is my IMEI being transferred to any place in this situation?

The IMEI is how the cell tower differentiates the individual network participants. It can be compared to a MAC address.

Can you elaborate how it is compared with MAC? What might happen to how cell tower compares IMEI and MAC when I spoof MAC?

Airplane mode should turn everything off (unless you re-enable things like WiFi, but that should still keep the cell radio off)

thanks @rowinxavier@lemmy.world and @9tr6gyp3@lemmy.world

Short answer: Yes The network can see your IMEI and triangulate your location even though no SIM is installed. and theoretically with airplane mode off no radio is on

thanks a lot my friend
