Is it possible to track cell phones through radio emissions
If this is the wrong group I'd appreciate a pointer to the right one!
I was wondering if it is possible to detect the presence of inactive cell phones/wifi devices by detecting radio signals they emit. I figure wifi would be the best bet because I guess cells dont broadcast all that much when not in use, right? Would there be enough output to find them? Would it be strong enough to detect over a distance of say 100m? Could signals from multiple devices be distinguished? Would the equipment be very expensive. Would I get thrown in prison? I am interested in triangulating and tracking the movement of phones through a small area as a potential postgrad project. Thanks. |
