Abstract

Offender presence warning system comprises of;

a GPS tracking device having a tamper detection strap used for attaching the device to an offender limb, containing a GPS receiver to receive GPS coordination signals from orbiting satellites and a cellular or satellite modem to establish communication with a monitoring station, a processor and an RF transceiver designed to transmit at time interval uniquely coded RF signal. And a victim carry on RF transceiver device which is designed to receive offender tracking device transmitted signals when the offender is located within near proximity of a victim, the victim carry on device processor in response to received RF transmitted signals from offender GPS tracking device, the victim warning device processor generates an audio/visual and or vibrating warning alarm signal(s) to alert the victim the presence of an offender near by, and the victim warning device automatically transmits a uniquely coded RF signal to the offender tracking device, which upon receipt of the signal generates audio and or vibrating alarm signal to warn the offender being to close to the victim and allow offender to move away from the victim, If the offender becomes non responsive to received warning signal(s), at a pre-determine time the offender GPS tracking device transmits a violation signal to a monitoring station containing information to both the offender unit ID, and to the victim unit ID along with GPS location information of offender.

Claims

1. - Offender presence warning system comprising;

a GPS tracking device having a tamper detection strap used for attaching the device to an offender limb which contains;

a GPS receiver to receive GPS coordination signals from orbiting satellites, and a cellular or satellite module to establish communication with a monitoring station, a processor and an RF transceiver designed to transmit at time interval uniquely coded RF signal, end

a victim carry on RF transceiver warning device which is designed to receive said offender tracking device transmitted RF signals when said offender is located within near proximity of said victim, the victim carry on device processor in response to received RF transmitted signals from said offender GPS tracking device, said victim unit processor circuitry generates an audio/visual and or vibrating warning alarm signal(s) to alert the victim to the presence of an offender near by, and accordingly said victim device automatically transmits a uniquely coded RF signal to said offender tracking device, which upon receipt of said signal generates audio and or vibrating alarm signal to warn the offender being to close to the victim and allow said offender a preset time to move away from said victim, If said offender becomes none responsive to said received warning signal(s), at a pre-determine time said offender GPS tracking device transmits violation signal to a monitoring station containing information both to said offender unit ID, and to said victim unit ID along with GPS location information of offender.

2. - Offender presence warning system as claimed in claim 1 wherein said

victim carry on RF transceiver warning device may have a cellular or satellite module to communicate with monitoring station, wherein when said offender becomes none responsive to said received warning signal(s) and does not move away, said victim activates said carryon warning unit emergency assistance button to create a wireless cellular or satellite two way emergency voice communication with said central monitoring station for assistance, and or transmits said offender tracking unit ID and or said victim warning device unit ID to said monitoring station.

3. - Offender presence warning system as claimed in claim 1 wherein said

victim carry on RF transceiver device may have a cellular or satellite modem to communicate with a monitoring station, wherein when said offender becomes not responsive to said received warning signals and does not move away from said victim, said victim carry on warning device automatically create a wireless cellular or satellite two way emergency voice communication with said central monitoring station for assistance, and or transmits said offender tracking unit ID and or said victim warning device ID to said monitoring station.

4. - Offender presence warning system as claimed in claim 1 wherein said offender GPS tracking bracelet device utilizes two researchable batteries as power source, main researchable battery to provide constant power to said offender tracking device, GPS receiver, RF transceiver, cellular/satellite module, and to said processor circuitry, and utilizes a second removable rechargeable battery which is used for charging the main battery in remote locations.
