Claim:
1. A method for detecting and identifying threats associated with wireless devices, comprising: positioning a plurality of sensor antennas within an electromagnetic environment; coupling radio frequency signals from one or more of the sensor antennas into an antenna feed network; coupling the radio frequency signals from the antenna feed network into a plurality of radio receivers; generating, within two or more of the plurality of radio receivers, data samples representing at least a portion of the radio frequency signals; generating feature vectors comprising at least a portion of the data samples; combining the feature vectors from two or more of the plurality of radio receivers to form aggregate feature vectors; incorporating attribute information into the feature vectors, wherein the attribute information describes one or more features of a communicated signal within the radio frequency signals; comparing content of the feature vectors against signatures of known signals to identify radio frequency signals associated with a wireless attack; comparing content of the feature vectors against templates of known attacks to classify the identified wireless attacks; and presenting, to one or more operator interfaces, threat information associated with the wireless attacks.
