Abstract:
1. A personal item tracking and monitoring system, comprising: a transmitter unit removably attachable to an object by an attachment means; and, a receiver unit allowing a user to adjust an allowable distance between said transmitter unit and said receiver unit, further comprising: wherein said length between said transmitter unit and said receiver unit is determined by a signal strength transmitted by said transmitter unit to said receiver unit; wherein when said signal strength of said radio frequency signal is of an adequate strength, said squelch circuit is broken and said personal item tracking and monitoring system is in an armed and active state; wherein when said signal strength of said radio frequency signal does not reach said adequate strength, said squelch circuit is closed and said receiver unit enters said alarm state; wherein said transmitter unit transmits said radio frequency signal to said receiving antenna of said receiver unit thereby allowing said receiving unit to determine a length between said transmitter unit and said receiving unit; and, wherein said receiver unit emits a warning signal when said length between said transmitter unit and said receiver unit reaches or extends beyond said allowable distance and said personal item tracking and monitoring system is in said alarm state.
