Abstract: Signal monitoring devices may connect to a host system for establishing the location of radios and other wireless communication devices within a facility and additionally aiding in the navigation of radios and wireless devices within the facility. The signal monitoring devices may be installed and integrated as components of a host facility system such as a fire alarm system, intrusion alarm system, surveillance system, access control system, internet access Wifi system, facility computer system, multiple line telephone system, SCADA system or other facility systems. A system may include a cell phone, handheld radio, wireless medical device, or other personal wireless devices that transmit special signals that are received by signal monitoring devices and/or perform two way data communications with a signal monitoring device. A system may include a processor that creates route and guidance information to guide a wireless device or a radio user to a destination within a facility.

Abstract: A transmitter broadcasts a signal having a different code characteristic for each of several directions. A receiver receives the broadcast signal from one of the directions and generates an expected signal for that direction based on the code characteristic for that direction. The receiver detects the broadcast signal from the direction based on the expected signal for that direction.

Abstract: This invention features an improved technique for search and track surveillance. In this invention, distinct and random (in both space and time) signal beams are simultaneous transmitted from an array of transmitter source elements in a manner to cover all sectors about a source location. In addition, countermeasures against a system according to the invention are difficult because the signal waveforms for each beam are distinct and random, making prediction of any signal waveform for any beam very unlikely. An array of receiver sensor elements is provided to receive signals that are scattered from remote objects and may or may not be co-located with and share the elements of the source array element. The scattered signals are received and processed to yield the direction and range of the remote objects.
