The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for filtering advertisements of a target device by using friendly jamming with a beamforming antenna to jam at least one advertisement channel in at least one specific sector of non-target devices. Thus, a master device can easily discover the advertisement of the target device in order to successfully connect to the target device. In addition, since the jamming is performed on advertisement channels only, data connection channels are not disturbed.

Method and apparatus for detecting and characterizing a pulse sequence using a finite impulse filter to determine a pulse width (PW) of pulses within the pulse sequence. The method and apparatus may also apply a histogram to the filtered pulses to determine the pulse rate interval (PRI) of pulses in the pulse sequence.

An Unmanned Aerial Vehicle is disclosed. The Unmanned Aerial Vehicle includes a body, rotors attached to the body, one or more sensors, and an electromagnetic pulse transmitter. The electromagnetic pulse transmitter is configured to transmit an EMP and the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle is configured to track a target Unmanned Aerial Vehicle using the one or more sensors and direct the electromagnetic pulse transmitter at the target Unmanned Aerial Vehicle to disrupt the target Unmanned Aerial Vehicle.

An internet of things is disclosed, comprising plural SDR receivers and possibly a centralised system, where one or more of the receivers may be mobile. The internet of things thus allows for a very large proportion of RF signals present within a city, for example, to be monitored and analysed for the purpose of identifying, tracking and/or preventing criminal behaviour. The receivers may be equipped with secure SDRs for increased security and privacy and the system preferably includes artificial intelligence using machine learning technology, for increased adaptability among others. The system is flexible due to the programmability of the SDRs.

The present subject matter is directed to an apparatus and methodology for monitoring for the occurrence of use of unauthorized telecommunications equipment within a designated area. The present subject matter has particular utility to the corrections environment in that it discloses a methodology for detecting and reporting the unauthorized operation of cellular telephones within a corrections facility. The present technology may be used advantageously in combination with inmate telephone systems to transmit information to appropriate personnel in the form of email messages and/or voice communications by way of telephone local or corrections facility external telephone lines. The present technology also provides for recordation and storage of time, date and location information for detected events.

A system architecture for managing resources in a communication network comprises in combination at least the following elements: a plurality of radio equipments working in a given frequency band and with identical frequency hopping rules; the radio equipments are managed by a master device; and a radio equipment comprises at least: a radiocommunication module that carries the radiocommunications; a module suitable for tapping, monitoring and intercepting radio signals in the environment and for recording them locally in a database; a module suitable for disrupting non-authorized communications; and a local “3 in 1” management module receiving the orders emitted by the master device, the management module being suitable for controlling the various modules of the radio equipment; a radio-router module; and a tapping and monitoring module.

The present invention is generally related to a device for providing wireless jamming signals in a delimited geographic area. The device is comprised of an on/off initiation module that allows the user to turn-on or turn-off the device, and initialize the jamming wireless signals device, a central controller module to distribute and analyze the information of the system, a signal transmitter device to transmit the jamming signals, a device to calculate distances to obtain the distances between the said signal transmitter and the objects in the delimited geographic area. The jamming device once is turned on calculates the distances and the power where to transmit the jamming signals to cover the required geographic area. This device will be capable of jamming one or more types of wireless signals at the same time such as Wi-Fi, cell phones and other wireless signals.

In accordance with an example embodiment of the present invention, there is provided an apparatus, comprising communication circuitry configured to receive a message, and execution circuitry configured to, in response to the message comprising an instruction to intercept a direct device-to-device (D2D) communication, render the apparatus capable of storing at least in part the direct device-to-device communication in at least one of the apparatus and a memory. The intercepting may comprise lawful interception.
