1. 1 Detection of Cellular Activity Within A Defined Space Undergraduate Project – Final Presentation Spring 2008 Doron BrotEyal Cimet Supervisor:Yossi Hipsh ! Department of Electrical Engineering High-Speed Digital Systems Laboratory

2. 2 The Main Objective 2 Detection and Positioning of Cellular Phone Activity In a Defined Space Where Cellular Use is Unwanted

3. 3 Main System Requirements Detection and Positioning of Transmitting Cellular Phone Desired Spatial Resolution & Accuracy: Required Temporal Resolution: Compatibility with all Cellular Providers Detection Regardless of Phone Orientation – Reception of all Linear Polarizations Ability to Handle Simultaneous Events Ability to Distinguish Between Original Signal and Multi-path Reflection 3

4. 4 Solution Overview Coverage of the Defined Space: Area Split to Lower the Required Dynamic Range Antennas

5. 5 System Operation Process Sampling Angle Measurement Multi-path Filtering Filtering of Dummy Origins Origin Estimation Idle / Trigger Triangulation Positioning Storage Start

6. 6 Angle Measurement Multi-beam Arrays – MBA: –Antennas Sensitive to Many Spatial Directions Simultaneously, Ideal for Angle Measurement –Differential Angle Measurement –Distance From Source Determines Signal Strength
