Abstract

A conventional mobile phone is used in conjunction with a home and/or car security alarm system to provide notification to one or more persons, e.g owner(s). The mobile phone may be hidden and does not need to be fixed with the security system. When the system is armed and active, it generates a voltage B1 which is used to set the mobile phone on and ready to dial a stored number. When a security breach is detected an output voltage B2, used to activate a siren, is used to supply a digital logic gate DG1 which produces three or more pulses, the 1<SP>st</SP> pulse initiates a call, the 2<SP>nd</SP> pulse ends the call after a short time and the 3<SP>rd</SP> pulse enables selection of a another number, if required. The notification may comprise a voice message or other warning signal. Additional functions may be provided such as calling the police and the phone may be modified to convert the ringer into an flashing LED.

Description

<Desc/Clms Page number 1> Security warning system via Mobile Phones The main principle relates to using the mobile phone to receive warning signals from standard home or/and car security systems. In case of a security breakdown, a user, can receive warning message via his/her mobile phone.
Receiving warning message through pagers and BT wired service is a well-known method of informing users of security breakdown. However, the BT service has the limitations that thieves can either get the line busy before they break through or cut the telephone wires, which then disable the system. The pager systems, suffers from the limited effective range, typical range is within 2 miles circle. In both cases, the cost of the systems is high which made the systems not very popular. The new system based on using mobile phones to receive warning message, which then eliminate all problems in the current warning systems.
In principle, the system can be used either in car or in home security. Figure 1 shows the basic block diagram of the new invention. A typical home/car security system is used to detect any security break while a mobile phone will be used to communicate with the home/car owners. The mobile phone can be hidden anywhere in the house/car and does not need to be fixed with the security alarm box. If the main security alarm box is damaged for any reason, the mobile phone is independent and will send the warning message. Before leaving home/vehicle, the system will be armed using the standard method. When the system is active, it generates voltage B 1, see Fig 1. The output voltage BI from the system will be used to set the mobile phone on and ready to dial a number. The number to be dialled can be stored in mobile phone using standard methods., When the system set on, due to security break, the output voltage to the external siren (B2) will be used to supply a digital logic circuit (DGI), which will produce three (or more) output pulses. These output pulses are logically timed so that the first pulse will be used to switch the calling switch (on the mobile phone) on and the user will receive a phone call (either through another personal mobile phone or through conventional telephone). After a short time, the second pulse will be on and used to control the off switch on the mobile phone to end the call. The call time can be controlled the digital circuit (DGI) and can be used to hear a voice message or any other warning signal. The
third pulse can be used to control the select key on the mobile phone to select another number if required. The number of outputs from DGl can be increased(if necessary) to facilitate the use of other switches on the mobile phone and in principle all fun rtions of the mobile phone can then be accessed, such as calling the police.
The control of the mobile phone switches can be done with different techniques such as using a set of relays controlled by the outputs of DGI, see fig 2.
The mobile phone used with the alarm system needs sight modification, such as converting the ringer into led light for flashing. Users can make sure that the system is armed and the mobile is ready for dialling by dialling the mobile phone. In case the mobile didn't work, the user should receive a standard message from the service provider.

Claims (4)

  1. CLAIMS 1. Home/car security system including, security violation detector, alarm generator and conventional mobile phones. Once a security violation is detected, the alarm generator sends notification message to owner(s) via mobile phone network.
  2. 2. A security violation detector is used to detect security breach, which then activates the alarm generator. The alarm generator controls a local mobile phone, which is capable to notify more than one person.
  3. 3. The system can be built from standard simple electronic circuit and can provide many options, which may be selected by the user.
  4. 4. The system can notify more than one person once a security breach happens.
