Systems and methods for communication control in a restricted environment

A method for wireless communication control in a restricted environment, comprising:

• a processor in cooperation with an intelligent network access controller (INAC) controlling operation of a radiofrequency (RF) front end servicing a local wireless communications network by:
• establishing a restricted portion of the local wireless network, the restricted portion defined by a perimeter in which wireless devices within the perimeter are restricted in operation,
• compelling a wireless device within the perimeter to attempt registration with the processor,
• determining an identity of the wireless device, wherein the processor compels the wireless device to operate according to a wireless technology that gives the processor access to an identification for the wireless device,
• based on the identification, locking the wireless device to the processor, wherein the wireless devices is prevented from using wireless communications while in the perimeter, and
• providing persistent communications to a locked wireless device to prevent access to the local wireless network by the locked wireless device.

A local wireless communications system, comprising:

• a radio-frequency front end under control of a processor, the radio-frequency front end comprising:
• one or more base stations, and
• one or more radio-frequency antennas, and
• an intelligent network access controller (INAC) comprising machine instructions executed by the processor, wherein the INAC comprises:
• a wireless device identity module;
• an access module;
• and
• a power control and location module, wherein the processor executes the machine instructions to control the one or more base stations and the one or more radio-frequency antennas to:
• establish a restricted portion of a local wireless communications network, the restricted portion defined by a perimeter in which wireless devices within the perimeter are subject to restricted operations,
• compel a wireless device within the perimeter to attempt registration with the processor,
• identify the wireless device, wherein the processor compels the wireless device to operate according to a wireless technology that gives the processor access to an identification for the wireless device,
• based on the identification, lock the wireless device to the processor, wherein the wireless devices is prevented from using wireless communications while in the perimeter, and
• provide persistent communications to a locked wireless device to prevent access to the local wireless communications network by the locked wireless device.
