Description

Application area

The utility model relates to monitoring systems of protected objects and can be used in security systems of mobile and stationary objects as an indicator of the termination of communication with the protected object.

State of the art

At present, car alarm systems with alerts through cellular channels (GSM modules) have begun to develop. They do not have limitations in range, like car alarms with feedback and do not require significant costs compared with satellite security systems. The prior art solution is known [1]. The present invention includes GPS communication means for transmitting an alarm to a vehicle theft event owner, and means for transmitting an alarm to a vehicle owner if GPS communication is not available.

A displacement sensor is used with a unique control program that determines the change (displacement) of the vehicle in time, and accurately characterizes them.

The disadvantage of this solution is that the signal is sent in case the GPS signal is unavailable by the security device itself. If the signal of the security device itself is silenced, the security system will be blocked and will not send any signals to the vehicle owner.

The prior art known "SECURITY SYSTEM OF VEHICLE" [2]. The invention relates to apparatus for preventing unauthorized use of a vehicle. The system has an anti-theft control device that exchanges data with at least one function control device, in particular with an engine control device, in order to control its readiness for operation. In this case, the exchange of data occurs through the data line connecting these devices. If necessary, an external device can be connected to the data line, which enables the exchange of data with at least one of the control devices and function control devices. The data line is a line already installed in the vehicle, in particular a diagnostic line. To control the exchange of data, one of the control devices performs the function of a control unit. If the mentioned external device is connected to the data line, then it assumes the function of the control unit from the control device controlling the data exchange.

The disadvantage of the solution is that the control signal is constantly sent from the security object via the communication channel to the owner or dispatcher, but if the security object is muffled, there will be no response signal from it and there will be no alarm signal.

The prior art solution [3], which monitors any interruptions in the operation of the communication system between the security device and its control panel, located at the owner. During such a break, an SMS is sent to the owner of the security object by mobile phone.

The disadvantage of the solution is that a signal about the loss of communication with the security object is sent by the control device in the security object itself, and when the attacker is jammed, no SMS will be sent to the communication operator. The solution [4] is also known. In it, in the event of an attempt to steal a car, truck, trailer, van, suitcases and other expensive equipment, the owner instantly becomes aware of what happened through a phone or SMS message. After that, he can immediately take measures by opening or closing the base at a distance by mobile phone or via SMS message at the place where the theft took place. Method of operation of the module: on the one hand, the wireless base has equipment for transmitting and receiving GSM / SMS, and on the other hand, locally receiving device on board, which operates in the range of about 100 meters. An unlimited number of detection points can be attached to the database if they are within the specified range of reach. Thus, the base first receives signals from remote detection points within 100 meters at a frequency of 868 MHz or at a different frequency and sends these signals through the GSM network to the user's mobile phone. On the other hand, the base through the GSM network opens or closes contacts, which in turn can transmit signals locally through three transmitters (868 MHz or another frequency) to the remote receivers, which can then be activated in various ways, for example, howling sirens or light flashes etc.

The base can be turned on or off through a hand transmitter (868 MHz) or via a GSM network.

The disadvantage of this solution is that a signal about an attempted theft is sent from a security monitoring device located at the security object itself, and when an intruder kills a cellular communication, no SMS will be sent to the communication operator, even if the security system constantly sends signals with such messages.

Among the well-known security systems, there are many similar solutions.

The car is set alarm with a communication unit. The communication unit provides the transfer of the state of the protected object. Currently, several methods of organizing a communication channel are used.

For example, the three-zone radio messaging system, the REEF PAGE RP-102 auto pager, is known [5]. The Reef Page RP-102 radio alert system is designed to remotely alert you when a car alarm is triggered. The system includes a transmitter and a miniature receiver (auto pager). The transmitter is installed in the car and connected to the car alarm. The receiver the car owner carries with him. In the event of a car alarm, the auto pager notifies the owner with sound and light signals. In this case, the car owner can be at a distance of up to two kilometers from the car.

Checking communication in automatic mode is as follows. When the owner leaves the system coverage area, the auto pager informs about this with warning signals. If, within a certain time, communication with the car is not restored, the auto pager gives alarms.

To check the connection in manual mode, just press the button on the auto pager, which immediately informs about the presence or absence of communication.

The disadvantages of such a system are: the coverage area of the radio broadcast has a limited range; the range depends on external factors, such as concrete walls, etc.

Known security system GSM-signaling device REEF GSM-2000 model 20 [6].

The information and security system Reef GSM-2000 model 20 (hereinafter referred to as the system) is connected to car alarms and various executive devices. The system provides two-way communication with the car at any point of cellular coverage. Key features of the system: control of communication with the cellular network.

Disadvantages of the system: a necessary condition for the system to work is that the alarm system is able to control the presence or absence of a base station signal. For almost all models of GSM alarm systems, the use of signal suppression or jamming devices by an attacker is an insoluble problem. The system should give a preliminary alarm to the owner of the building when the signal quality from the base station deteriorates.

Therefore, the GSM alarm unit may not have time to send a message or make a call. In this case, the owner will not be able to receive a signal about the loss of communication between the object of protection and the base communication station.

Thus, all described and known burglar alarms with alerts through cellular channels, as a rule, use SMS alerts and calls to pre-entered phone numbers. Notification modules have one significant drawback: the user never reliably knows whether the communication module is “muffled” (is there a connection between the GSM unit and the base station of the mobile operator). An attacker can use any known “jammers” of cellular communications:

- broadband jammers that constantly emit powerful noises at all operating frequencies of the GSM auto pager;

- sorting frequencies; noise-like interference is placed sequentially across all frequencies of the GSM channel, not allowing the GSM auto-pager to transmit a signal;

- A “smart” jammer posing as a base station of a GSM operator imitates a GSM operator.

The closest solution to this problem is the security system [7]. Its principle of operation is based on the determination of the fact of jamming from the outside. To do this, a constant check of communication between the GSM-auto pager and a dedicated server is organized - channel monitoring. Thus, on the server side, it is guaranteed to determine the loss of communication with the car. In the event of a GSM signal loss, the server notifies the owner by SMS, e-mail, or call. And if the owner is in the car while jamming the connection, after he leaves the jamming area (1-15 meters), the server will notify him of the jamming.

The appearance of the channel control function as part of the Car-Online satellite Internet service allows car owners not to be afraid of jammers and to be even more confident in the safety of their car.

The disadvantage of the system is: control of the communication channel is assigned to a server on the Internet. In case of server failure, it is not possible to receive a message. An example of such inoperability from the site car-online.ru is described in [8], where preventive work on the server was carried out on the date 2009-08-04. Knowing the time of the failure on the server, the attacker can precisely in this period of time infringe on the user's property.

In addition, at the present stage of development of IT technologies, it is not difficult to trigger a forced attack of a server on the network and disable it at a given time interval. If an attacker has the task of stealing an expensive car worth several hundred thousand US dollars, then his expenses for a hacker attack on the car-online.ru server will be justified and insignificant.

The purpose of the utility model is to transfer monitoring of constant communication from the security device installed at the security facility to the communication operator and notifying the user if there is no communication signal from the security device in the network.

Technical result: the system allows to eliminate any problems of jamming communications by an attacker near the object of protection and send a notification to the user about violations in the communication system of the cellular operator and the object of protection.

Figure 3 shows a block diagram of the monitoring algorithm of the protected facility, where 14 is the inclusion of the monitoring device, 15 is the entrance to the GSM operator network, or CDMA2000, or WiMAX, 16 is the fixation by the communication operator of the GSM device (2) in the network, 17 is a violation connection, 18 - notification of the user about the absence of the device (2) in the network, 19 - voice notification of the user, 20 - notification of the user via SMS, 21 - user verification of the protected object, 22 - detection of violation of the protected object by the user, 23 - convincing the user of the integrity of the protected an object .

Utility Model Implementation

The monitoring system of the protected object can be implemented as follows (see Figure 1, Figure 2, Figure 3). The protected object (1) is equipped with a communication device (2) GSM, CDMA2000, or WiMAX, for example, an ordinary cell phone, which is turned on (14) and is activated on the network (15, 16), which establishes a continuous connection, for example, between GSM- the communication operator (3) and the guarded object (1).

In the normal state of protection, continuous monitoring is carried out by the communication operator (3) of the device (2) in the network. Monitoring is carried out in the usual way, as monitoring any mobile phones in the operator’s network. In this case, the operator always fixes the presence or absence of the device (2) in the network in automatic mode. In the event of an attacker violating the integrity of the protected object (1), accompanied by jamming of the GSM communication channel, CDMA2000, or WiMAX network, communication with the operator (3) and device (2) is disrupted (17).

The communication operator (3) fixes this violation in automatic mode and automatically notifies the user (18) of the termination of communication of the protected object with the operator.

Notification of the user about the termination of communication of the protected object with the operator is carried out by SMS (20) and / or voice message (19), accompanied by a call to the telephone (4) of the user. The choice of notification method can be made by the user or operator.

A feature of the invention is that the monitoring of continuous monitoring of continuous communication between the telecom operator and the guarded object is carried out by the telecom operator, and not by the security device. Thus, no jamming of the connection by the attacker will notify the user about the termination of communication with the protected object.

Monitoring (6) from the communication operator of the guarded object is carried out on the device (2), which is placed on the guarded object, usually simultaneously with a security device equipped with an alarm system. The device (2) can be made on the basis of, for example, a conventional mobile phone and even operate on its basis. The minimum design features of the device (2) is the presence of: a transceiver device (9) for communication, a SIM card (10), a battery (7), a microchip (8) for control from a cell phone. Turning on and off such a device can be done either manually by means of the power switch (11), or through the control panel (13). In the second case, the device (2) must also contain a transceiver device (12), operating at the frequencies of the control panel (13). It is preferable to combine the functions of the control panel (13) with the device (2) with the control panel of the security system of the protected object (1), for example, in the form of a key fob of the control panel of the car security system.

When the user (5) receives a notification (18) about the violation of communication with the device (2), he can personally or through other persons check (21) and make sure the integrity of the protected object (car or home), and in case of violation of the integrity (22 ), take measures to call law enforcement or bodyguard. In case of accidental termination of communication with the guarded object (which is extremely rare due to faults on the communication line in the device’s area, for example, a breakdown of the relay of the communication operator), the user can verify (23) the integrity of the security object and then turn on the device again (2) . In case of failures on the line of the telecom operator, the user will not receive a notification of communication failure with the device (2). Typically, such violations occur no more than 1-2 times a year and do not last for a long time. An attacker can never identify and steal or break into a protected object (1) in these periods of time during this period of time. The user will not even notice this temporary lack of communication. The device (2) is preferably used on the guarded object (1) together with a security system (not shown in the drawings). Then, if an attacker acts in a primitive way of breaking into the object of protection, a security alarm will be triggered that will notify the user of the break-in, and if the break-in will be carried out by the attacker professionally with jamming, then the user will be notified of the break by the operator (3), when he fixes the lack of communication (6) with monitoring device (2).

Technically, monitoring the location of the device (2) in the network and notification (18) of its exit from the network can be implemented based on existing technologies, for example [9]. This well-known service of the operator "I am in touch" allows you to receive information about registration in the network of a subscriber to whom you could not get through because his phone was switched off or was out of network coverage. The same technology allows the operator to send a notification about fixing his exit from the network instead of sending a notification about the fixation of a subscriber who has entered the network again. The monitoring device (2), which is equipped with a SIM card (10) and has a phone number registered by the operator (3), is perceived as a subscriber.

User (5) registers with the operator one or more phone numbers that are assigned to monitoring devices (2) on SIM cards (10), if they aren’t in the network, they will receive SMS messages (20) or voice notifications (19).
