METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CONTROLLING A MOBILE COMMUNICATION DEVICE IN A MOVING VEHICLE
Disclosed herein is a method and system for detecting, monitoring and/or controlling one or more of mobile services for a mobile communication device (also referred to herein as a Controllable Mobile Device or CMD), and in particular, when the device is being used and the vehicle, operated by the user of the device, is moving. The present method and system determines whether the vehicle is being operated by a user that may also have access to a mobile communication device which, if used concurrently while the vehicle is in operation, may lead to Service Provider System unsafe operation of the vehicle. If the mobile services control system determines that a vehicle operator has potentially unsafe access to a mobile communication device, the mobile services control system may restrict operator access to one or more services that would otherwise be available to the operator via the mobile communication device.
Systems and methods for detecting, monitoring, and mitigating the presence of a drone
Systems and methods for detecting, monitoring, and mitigating the presence of a drone are provided herein. In one aspect, a system for detecting presence of a drone includes a radio-frequency (RF) receiver configured to receive an RF signal transmitted between a drone and a controller. The RF signal includes a synchronization signal for synchronization of the RF signal. The system can further include a processor and a computer-readable memory in communication with the processor and having stored thereon computer-executable instructions to cause the at least one processor to receive a sequence of samples from the RF receiver, obtain a double differential of the received sequence of samples, calculate a running sum of a defined number of the double differential of the received sequence of samples, and detect the presence of the drone based on the running sum.
Deterrent for unmanned aerial systems
A system for providing integrated detection and deterrence against an unmanned vehicle including but not limited to aerial technology unmanned systems using a detection element, a tracking element, an identification element and an interdiction or deterrent element. Elements contain sensors that observe real time quantifiable data regarding the object of interest to create an assessment of risk or threat to a protected area of interest. This assessment may be based e.g., on data mining of internal and external data sources. The deterrent element selects from a variable menu of possible deterrent actions. Though designed for autonomous action, a Human in the Loop may override the automated system solutions.
Drone defense system
A disruption device for fixing to an aerial vehicle. The disruption device is adapted to disrupt at least one radio path between at least one receiving unit of an unmanned flying body and at least one transmitting unit provided for controlling the flight path of the unmanned flying body. An aerial vehicle having the disruption device is further provided.
METHOD AND DEVICE FOR DETECTING A DECOY OPERATION OF A GNSS SYSTEM
A method of detecting an operation to spoof a first positioning device carried by a first vehicle moving in a zone in which at least one second vehicle carrying a second positioning device is also moving, the method comprising the step of causing at least one first positioning value to be calculated for each vehicle from initial satellite signals received by each device; the method being characterized in that it further comprises the steps of: causing the second device to initiate a latching stage in order to make a new search for satellite signals and using the new satellite signals received by the second device to calculate a second positioning value for the second vehicle at the same instant as the first value; comparing the first and second values relating to the second vehicle; and issuing a warning when the two values do not coincide.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR LIMITING MOBILE PHONE USE BY DRIVERS
A system for limiting use of an electronic mobile device by a driver of a vehicle. The system includes a mobile device controller for removable connection with a vehicle and for wireless communicating with one or more electronic mobile devices and an electronic mobile device for wireless communicating with the mobile device controller. The mobile device controller comprises a radio frequency receiver or transmitter. The electronic mobile device includes a radio frequency transceiver in wireless communication with the radio frequency receiver or transmitter of the mobile device controller, an application installed thereon and an electronic mobile device processor programmed to execute one or more instructions of the application stored in a non-transitory computer readable storage medium of the electronic mobile device.
Vehicle access with selective jamming radio signal
A jamming radio signal is selectively outputted based on an access signal. The jamming radio signal is configured to prevent an interrogation signal of a vehicle to complete an authentication of a vehicle key of the vehicle.
Simplified radio frequency emissions tester and method of use thereof
A testing device is provided that evaluates the operating performance of radio frequency (RF) emitting devices such as a counter-unmanned aircraft system (C-UAS) device. The testing device allows an operator, with limited RF knowledge, to conduct testing on a C-UAS device and quickly verify functionality in any location with no data analysis. The testing device provides a simplified and portable method to test the RF output of devices such as C-UAS. Since C-UAS devices use RF power to disrupt their UAS target, the performance can be assessed by verifying the RF power level emitted by the C-UAS device. In order to do this the testing device measures and assesses the RF power levels in the bands that the C-UAS device emits radio frequency energy.
Directional High-Energy Radio Frequency Weapon
Systems, methods and apparatus are described for a HERF weapon that may emit high-energy radio waves at a target based on locational information and a frequency associated with the target. The HERF weapon may receive the frequency and locational information from a sensing system. The HERF weapon may emit a high energy pulse toward the target and on the frequency associated with the target to disable or destroy the target without affecting nearby devices. The HERF weapon may allow the user to avoid detection by using a frequency that corresponds to the target's operating frequency.
Vehicle control system
The present disclosure provides an apparatus, method and system for use with a vehicle having passive keyless entry and start (PKES) system including a vehicle unit and a key fob storage unit. The vehicle united is to be installed with the vehicle having a first transceiver, a first relay transceiver an authentication unit, a first controller for controlling said first relay transceiver allowing said transmission if said user is authenticated. The key fob storage unit comprises at least one housing for securely holding at least one key fob associated with said PKES systems of said vehicles, a second, said second wireless relay w wherein said first relay transceiver and said second relay transceiver allows said PKES system and said key fob to communicate from a distance larger than a range of said PKES system signals.
