The system is provided with at least one stationary emergency service communication device (M) for the purpose of communication with the emergency service transmitter (T) utilizing emergency service signals. The system includes at least one user receiver (R) which is arranged to detect emergency service signals and to deliver a warning signal upon detection of an emergency service signal.
Claims20
An emergency service warning system, arranged to warn a user of approach of emergency services, the system comprising:
- at least one movable emergency service transmitter;
- at least one receiver arranged to receive signals transmitted by the emergency service transmitter;
- and
- wherein the at least one receiver comprises:
- at least one stationary emergency service communication device for communicating with said emergency service transmitter utilizing encoded digital emergency service signals by deciphering encoded content of the encoded digital emergency service signals, and
- at least one user receiver arranged to detect, without deciphering a possible content of the encoded digital emergency service signals, an instance of the encoded digital emergency service signals and deliver a warning signal upon detecting the instance of the encoded digital emergency service signals.
A method of delivering a warning in case of an approaching mobile emergency service, the method comprising the steps:
- transmitting, by the mobile emergency service, encoded digital emergency service signals;
- receiving, by one or more stationary emergency service communication devices, the encoded digital emergency service signals for subsequent deciphering of encoded content;
- verifying without deciphering a possible content of the encoded digital emergency service signals, by at least one user receiver associated with a user, whether an instance of the encoded digital emergency service signals is being transmitted;
- and
- delivering, by the at least one user receiver, a warning signal in response to detecting the instance of the encoded digital emergency service signals during the verifying step.
