Abstract:
1. A method for detecting a transmission device within a set area comprising: transmitting information to said transmission device, said information causing said transmission device to lose contact with an available base station; detecting a response transmission from said transmission device by at least one transmission detection facility, said response transmission attempting to re-acquire contact with said available base station; time stamping the detected response transmission on each of the at least one transmission detection facility; extracting identification information associated with said transmission device; matching said transmission device with said identification information received in said response transmission for identifying said transmission device, wherein said identified transmission device is in one of: an on-state and an off-state; determining a location of the identified transmission device based on said response transmission received by said at least one transmission detection facility, wherein said response transmission is sorted by said identification information and on detected response transmissions with substantially same time stamps, determining whether said location is within said set area; and determining an allowability of said identified transmission device within said set area based on said location and said identification information.
