Title: Radio transmitter detection
Inventor: BAGTIYAR BABAYEV
IPC: H04W12/02
Filed: 2016-09-19
Abstract: The invention relates to alert apparatus for monitoring radio frequency transmissions from a transmitting device. An alert apparatus 100 receives an RF signal, from transmitting device, through an antenna and filters the signal to block RF signals above a predetermined frequency but pass RF frequencies below the predetermined frequency. When the filtered RF signal is determined to exceed a threshold duration an alert indication is sent to a user. Preferably the alert indication takes the form of a telephone call from the alert apparatus to a cellular phone of the user. The threshold frequency may be 800MHz or any other frequency which ensures cellular communications are blocked but walkie-talkie communications are passed.The alert indication that signals are being transmitted within range of the alert apparatus which are likely to carry speech and are likely to have been transmitted by a handheld transceiver such as a walkie-talkie. A claim to a computer program omits the filtering, antenna and RF requirements. The issuing of an alert may also be conditional on the filtered RF signal exceeding a power threshold.
