SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETECTING AND CONTROLLING TRANSMISSION DEVICES
First Claim
1. A method for detecting a transmission facility within a set area comprising:
- detecting a transmission signal associated with said transmission facility by a least one transmission detection facility;
receiving identification information associated with said transmission facility;
determining a location of said at least one transmission facility based on reception of said transmission signal associated with each of said at least one transmission detection facility and a position of the at least one transmission detection facility detecting the transmission signal; and
determining an allowability of said transmission facility to receive and transmit within at least one area within said set area based on said determined location; and
providing an indication of said allowability to at least one action facility, andresponsive to said indication said action facility operates to control transmission of said transmission facility.

Abstract
A method of detecting, controlling and managing transmission of a transmitting device within a facility is disclosed. The method involves transmitting information to the transmission device, detecting a response transmission from the transmission device by a least one transmission detection facility, extracting identification information associated with the transmission device in response to the transmitted information; and determining a location of the transmission device based on the response transmission received by the at least one received transmission detection facility, wherein the response transmissions are sorted by the identification information, determining an allowability of the located transmission device with the set area and interacting and manipulating transmission of the detected transmitting device.

9. A system comprising:
-
at least one frequency transmission unit; at least one receiving unit; a processor in communication with each of said at least one frequency transmission units and said receiving units and in communication with a memory, the memory including code which when accessed by the processor causes the processor to; receive information from a plurality of said at least one receiving units, said information including identification information associated with a transmission device; extract from said identification information at least one unique identification characteristic associated with said transmission device; determine whether said extracted identification characteristic is among at least one corresponding identification characteristics stored in a list of allowable identification characteristics; and provide instruction to selected ones of said at least one frequency transmission units when said extracted identification characteristic is not included in said list of at least one corresponding identification characteristic, wherein said instruction causes said frequency transmission unit to selectively generate a signal to interfere with subsequent transmissions from said transmission device. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
