Claim Text:
1. A method, operable in a processing system, for capturing a transmission facility within a set area, said method causing said processing system to execute the steps of: receiving a reference signal from a base station and a signal from said transmission facility; determining an expected received power of the reference signal at said transmission facility, said expected received power being determined based on a distance between the transmission facility and the processing system and a positional relationship among said base station, said transmission facility and said processing system; transmitting a simulated reference signal, the simulated reference signal having a higher power at said transmission facility than the expected received power, wherein said simulated reference signal causes said transmission facility to re-acquire communication with said base station; establishing communication with the transmission facility when said transmission facility attempts to re-acquire communication with said base station; receiving a transmission from the transmission facility to re-acquire communication with said base station; extracting from said transmission to re-acquire communication with said base station identification information associated with said transmission facility; determining an allowability of the transmission facility to receive and transmit signals within said set area based on said identification; and providing said indication of allowability to the base station, wherein in response to an indication of not allowed, the base station displays an indication of the not allowed transmission facility and denies service to the transmission facility by holding the transmission facility to a non-communication channel.
