1. An apparatus for detecting signal transmissions, the apparatus comprising:

  • an electronic projectile including a processor, a radio frequency detector operably coupled to the processor and configured to detect radio frequency transmission signals, a first transmitter operably coupled to the processor and configured to transmit a source signal including data about the detected radio frequency transmission signals, a first receiver operably coupled to the processor, and a responder operably coupled to the processor; and

    an operator station including a second receiver configured to receive the source signal, a controller operably coupled to the second receiver and configured to generate a control signal in response to a trigger, and a second transmitter configured to transmit the control signal to the receiver of the electronic projectile;

    wherein the processor of the electronic projectile activates the responder upon receiving the control signal;

    wherein said processor, said first transmitter, and said first receiver send a signal to query a plurality of communication devices within a predetermined range of said projectile, wherein said query triggers said communication devices to transmit a unique identification data code associated with each of said communication devices;

    wherein said processor appends said unique identification data code to said signal data.
