Abstract

There are security systems that are installed and continuously monitored remotely, for a periodic and/or an initial charge, by commercial security firms using the wired telephone system. In the present invention, the said periodic charges for such monitoring of the property are avoided by the property/manager/minder themselves doing the said monitoring with the help of a wired telephone or a wireless cellular phone or a pager or any other such suitable telecommunication system.

Description

Patent Application : SELF-MONITORING REMOTE ALARM
Inventor : Bibhuti Bhusan BARDHAN
Pa~e-2 rof9Z
Background of Invention There are various commercial security firms that provide 24-hour continuous remote security monitoring of properties with the help of security alarm system (e.g., infra-red sensors placed at strategic locations inside and/or outside the property) installed at the property coupled with a wired telephone system to monitor the whole system continuously and from a remote location (such as the office of the said firms) at the other end of the telephone system. In case of the said security system being triggered and wrong or no pass-code being provided, the said remote location of the said security firms takes appropriate actions (e.g., informing the police or other agencies to check the property). In case of some more sophisticated such security systems, the security firms use the telephone along with a remote loudspeaker and microphone at the property to ask the intruder to identify himself or herself with a password or pass-code. In case of a wrong or no password or pass-code, the police or any other suitable agency is called to check the property and take appropriate actions.
Normally, the security firms install the said security system at the property to be watched and do the said 24-hour continuous monitoring themselves for a periodic fee, such as a certain amount of dollars monthly or yearly, in addition to any initial one time installation charge that is not incorporated into the on-going periodic charges.
Such remote monitoring by the security firms is usually redundant when the owner or manager of the property is present at the property. Even in case of intrusion into the property by strangers without the knowledge of the said owner or manager who is present at the said property but, say, has fallen asleep or is otherwise oblivious of such intrusion, an alarm bell system (with or without a remote video system) that is triggered by an alarm system (using, say, infra-red ray) may easily draw his or her attention.

Patent Application : SELF-MONITORING REMOTE ALARM
Inventor : Bibhuti Bhusan BARDHAN
Pa~,e - 3 (of 9) However, when the said owner or manager is away from the property, he or she may require or wish to have the said monitoring of his or her property being done by someone else remotely.
In order to avoid the periodic charges by the security firms for such remote monitoring, the said owner or manager may choose to do the said remote monitoring by himself or herself using the same technology as the said security firms use, except that the said owner or manager himself or herself handles the triggering of the monitoring security system as stated above.

Patent Application : SELF-MONITORING REMOTE ALARM
Inventor : Bibhuti Bhusan BARDHAN
pQ~e-4 (Of 9Z
Description of Invention This is a remotely monitored security alarm system, coupled with a set of wired telephone or wireless cellular telephone or wireless pager or such other telecommunication system on one end at the property and another set of wired telephone or wireless cellular telephone or wireless pager or such other telecommunication system at the other end with the property owner/manager/minder who himself or herself does the continuous remote monitoring privately as required (e.g., when he or she is not present at the site) and, in case of an unwanted intrusion triggering this remote monitoring system (along with wrong or no password or pass-code from the intruder or intruders), takes appropriate measures (such as calling the police or any other suitable agency or any person such as a friend or a relative or a neighbour to go and check the property unless he or she wishes and is able to do the checking personally).
The said property owner/manager/minder may also use the same kind of two-way voice alarm system as used by some commercial firms as mentioned above.
One of the important differences between such private monitoring and the said commercial monitoring is that in the case of the former, the said periodic fixed charges are avoided.
In the present invention, in addition to the above features, if the said property owners or managers so choose, they may use, whenever needed, the "Call Forward" system (offered by the telephone companies) to let, as their surrogate, another person (such as a friend or a relative or, even, a commercial firm, say for a per-use-basis fee) to do the required monitoring and act as required.

Pale - 5 (of 9Z
The above said remote monitoring system, including the two-way voice alarm system, is already in public use (though only by security firms, for example, and not by ordinary owner/manager of a property privately) for guarding properties. Therefore, the means and mechanisms of building and use of such remote monitoring systems are of common knowledge.
