RF TAG SECURITY AND REPORTING SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A security system for establishing and monitoring the location of conveyances and reporting the movement thereof, comprising:
- an activator component having multi-modes adapted to be mounted on a mobile conveyance and connected to a control unit, said activator producing a real time signal to said control unit, said control unit including a computer having a CPU with a memory and a geographical locator component for producing geographical coordinates of said real time signal of said activator component, said activator signaling said computer to read and store said geographical coordinates of said activator when said activator STAY mode is selected,at least one RF tag sub-system for securement to an ancillary conveyance assigned to said mobile conveyance, said RF tag sub-system including a geographical locator component for producing geographical coordinates, said computer comparing said geographical coordinates of said mobile conveyance and said ancillary conveyance, said control unit connected to a communications component for automatically sending an alert when said real time signal of said activator of said ancillary conveyance is displaced from said stored STAY geographical coordinates.

Abstract
An integrated security system having an activator interfaced with a geographical locator component based on RADAR, GPS, LORAN or other satellite communications systems to establish the location of an item to be monitored. An RF tag sub-system permits the security system to perform an inventory function of the item to be monitored The system includes a control unit having a computer with a CPU and memory to receive and store the geographical coordinates of the established location. A communications component of the system sends a signal to proper authorities when the stored geographical coordinates change.

7. A security system for monitoring and reporting the movement of conveyance comprising:
a first conveyance equipped with an electrical system, radios and GPS for establishing, monitoring, and reporting the location thereof comprising an activator adapted to be interfaced with said GPS, a control unit including a computer connected to said activator and a communications component adapted to be interfaced with said radios, said control unit adapted to be connected to said GPS and said electrical system, said activator having a multiple position switch designating multi-modes, said multi-modes including a STAY mode in which said control unit supplies electrical power to said GPS and records said GPS generated geographical coordinates of said activator, said control unit interrogating said GPS periodically in real time and comparing said real time GPS generated geographical coordinates with the recorded GPS generated geographical coordinates; and
at least one ancillary conveyance having an RF transmitter, said transmitter submitting GPS data periodically in real time and comparing said real time GPS generated geographical coordinates with the recorded GPS generated geographical coordinates, said control unit activating said communications component to send an alert by radio when said real time coordinates are different from said recorded coordinates.- View Dependent Claims (8)
