Abstract
A system, for managing wireless devices within a restricted area is disclosed, wherein the system constructs models, containing attributes/characteristics and at least prior history data information associated with wireless devices, wherein the information is used to determine whether the wireless devices are allowed to operate within the area by the device responding to a plurality of inquiries that require the device and/or the user to provide information which is compared to the modeled data.
Claims26
A system for managing wireless devices within an area within a coverage area associated with a base station, the system comprising:
- at least one detection facility comprising:
- a receiving system, said detection facility configured to:
- detect transmission from at least one of said wireless devices within said area;
- a processor configured to:
- receive an indication of the detected transmission;
- extract information from the detected transmission;
- access a data base based on the extracted information to determine a first inquiry, wherein said first inquiry is selected based on previously obtained information associated with said at least one of said wireless devices;
- transmit the first inquiry to said at least one of said wireless devices;
- receive a response to said first inquiry;
- determine a confidence factor based on the received response to the first inquiry, wherein the confidence factor represents a measure of the received response matching at least one element in the data base associated with said at least one of said wireless devices, wherein said at least one element comprises at least one response to a corresponding one of at least one prior transmitted first inquiry;
- determine at least one second inquiry, wherein the at least one second inquiry is determined based on a specificity of an expected response to the determined at least one second inquiry, wherein said specificity is inversely proportional to the confidence factor;
- receive at least one response to the at least one second inquiry;
- and
- determine an allowability of the at least one of said wireless devices to operate within the area based on the at least one response corresponding to the at least one second inquiry satisfying said specificity of said at least one second inquiry and being received during an expected time window, wherein said expected time window is based on said at least one of said wireless device.
A system for managing a wireless device within an area within a coverage area associated with a base station, the system comprising:
- at least one detection facility comprising:
- a receiving system configured to:
- detect transmission of said wireless device within said coverage area;
- a processor configured to:
- receive an indication of the detected transmission;
- extract information from the detected transmission;
- determine a first inquiry based on the extracted information, wherein said first inquiry is determined from a data base of information regarding information associated with the wireless devices;
- transmit the first inquiry to said wireless device;
- receive, from said wireless device, a response to the first inquiry;
- determine a confidence factor based on the received response to the first inquiry, wherein the confidence factor is based on the received response;
- determine whether a second inquiry is necessary, wherein a specificity of the second inquiry is based on information associated of the detected transmission and said received response;
- transmit the second inquiry to said wireless device, when necessary;
- receive at least one response to the second inquiry;
- and
- determine an allowability of said wireless device to operate within the area based on the response to the second inquiry being received within a time window, which had been provided to the wireless device and information of said wireless device.
