Patent ID: 7366148

Claim:
A system for detecting intrusion into a wireless network, the system comprising: a monitoring station comprising: a first transceiver for receiving and demodulating a first signal and for sending a first communication, and a first processor coupled to the first transceiver for processing the first signal and for controlling the first transceiver; and a fusion station comprising: a second transceiver for receiving and demodulating the first communication and for sending a second communication, and a second processor coupled to the second transceiver for processing the first communication from the monitoring station and for controlling the second transceiver, wherein the second processor stores attributes of an expected signal; the first processor calculates attributes of the first signal; the first communication contains the attributes of the first signal; the second processor compares the attributes of the first signal with the stored attributes of the expected signal to determine whether the attributes of the first signal deviate from the stored attributes of the expected signal; and the second communication comprises an alert messages if the attributes of the first signal deviate from the stored attributes of the expected signal.
