Meanwhile, a Bluetooth jammer is usually integrated with a multi-functional jammer which jams Wi-Fi and Video. It works by disrupting and disabling wireless LAN, Bluetooth devices as well as video transmitting for privacy.

Another more commonly used is the GPS signal jammer. These are commonly used by the military to confuse GPS tracking for locations. Similarly, there are no homemade tracking systems like this. Civilians who make use of these jammers to hide or cover up his location and that of his vehicle should in case it is being tracked by a GPS receiver. A civilian GPS jammer usually covers up to 10 meters only.

Lastly, you want to be able to upload your database as often as possible. People who drive for a living may want to refresh their database daily. Some providers limit the number of times you can refresh your database in a set time period.

One day after Iran claimed to have brought down an advanced U.S. RQ-170 Sentinel drone, Public Intelligence
received an Air Force report saying the drone suffers from many electronic vulnerabilities (via Jeffrey Carr
at Digital Dao).

Signal jammer will have some difficulties in interfering with other electronic devices which are in good working condition. These jammers are also used and regulated by the government and are usually intended to jam cellular phone communication lines only. Similarly, They only damaged the receiving end of a cellphone call because it directly interferes with the cell phone and the base station itself. It has a relatively small electromagnetic wave and as such, it has no known damage to the human body as well as to the cellular phone itself. However, if the jammers are bigger, like outdoor signal stations there can be health repercussions for such.

A simple cellular phone signal jammer usually costs around US$ 33-122. GPS jammer is priced between US$ 99 to 1.495 each. The price for Wi-Fi/Bluetooth jammer starts from US$199 while the multi function Wi-Fi and Video jammer starts from US$ 295. This relatively low priced gadget added to its popularity and repeated use.

The cellular phone jammer is probably the most common signal jammer available. It disrupts and prevents the cellular phone from receiving signals from its base station, by blocking radio waves. The basic one usually works in a 10 meters to 1 kilometer distance. But those involving outdoor signal stations which are bigger with different base stations and positions can effectively jam the signals of any GSM and CDMA phones.

Here is what you should look for in obtaining a POI database for your GPS. You want a database that has the largest number of locations in the database. Hundreds of cameras are being added across the country daily. One firm has over 140,000 locations in their database already. If you have less than 10,000, you're not doing yourself much good.

The report,
Operating Next-Generation Remotely Piloted Aircraft for Irregular Warfare
was published "For Official Use Only" (FOUO) in April 2011 by the U.S. Air Force Scientific Advisory Board, and addresses electronic threats to the American drone fleet.
Operation Anaconda
During the early months of combat in Operation Enduring Freedom, in a battle known as "Operation Anaconda," Haden's A-10 wound up in a fast-moving, dynamic combat circumstance wherein U.S. military were attacking Taliban fighters in the Afghan mountains.

A-10 Thunderbolt II, affectionately known as the Warthog, has been in service since the late 1970s and served as a close air support combat aircraft in conflicts such as the Gulf War, Operation Enduring Freedom, Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Allied Force in Kosovo, among others.

"We could see tracer fire going from one side of the valley to the other side of the valley. We were unable to tell which was from good guys and which was from bad guys. Using close air support procedures in conjunction with our sensors on board, we deconstructed the tactical situation and then shot," he said.

The ticket has a picture of the back of your vehicle with the license plate clearly visible. You have been caught by an automated red light camera or speed camera system. Cities across the country are installing these systems to free up officers, catch all violators regardless of time of day, and hopefully cause drivers to be more careful.

A signal jammer is a gadget used to interrupt or dislocate radio signals. It is commonly used to disrupt cellular phones from receiving and transmitting signals. They are usually wireless and can be used in any location to disable cellular phones. It can also be used to interfere with wireless local area networks or WLAN which correspondingly lead to the development and manufacture of jammers like: Bluetooth jammer, Wi-Fi and Wireless video jammers among many others. Hi-tech and sophisticated signal jammers can even jam satellites.
