Abstract: This Paper is designed and implemented for mobile phone signal jammers for GSM, CDMA and 3G networks with
prescheduled time duration using ARM7.the mobile jammers block mobile phone use by sending out radio waves along the same
frequencies that mobile phone use .this case enough interference with the communication between mobile phone and
communicating towers to render the phones unusable .upon activating mobile jammers all mobile phones will indicate NO
NETWORK AVAILABLE . Incoming calls are blocked as if the mobile phone were off. When the mobile jammers are turned
off, all mobile phones will automatically re-establish communications and provide full service .the activation and deactivation
time schedules can be programmed with microcontroller. Real time clock chip DS1307 is used to set the schedule. In this project
we have a jammer section, microcontroller. RTC and GSM modem .this information is given to the microcontroller will send
data to GSM just before the select time and GSM will send message to the users whose number are programmed in the GSM
that the jammer is going to active and communication will be stopped. After message sent by GSM. Mobile jammer circuit will
active and signal are jammed or blocked.

Keywords: Mobile Jammer, ARM7.RTC, GSM Modem.

I. INTRODUCTION particularly disruptive because silence is expected. As with

Communication jamming device were first developed and other radio jamming, cell phone jammers block cell phone
used by military. This interest comes from the fundamental use by sending out radio waves along the same frequencies
objective of denying the successful transport of information that cellular phone use. These causes enough interface with
from the sender (tactical commander) to the receiver (the the communication between cell phones and towers to radar
army personnel), and vice-versa. Nowadays, mobile phones the phones unusable. On most retail phones, the network
are becoming essential tool in our daily life. The technology would simply appear out of range. Most cell phones use
behind cell phone jamming is very simple. The widely use different bands to send
the mobile phone could create some problems as the sound of
ringing becomes annoying or disrupting. This could happen
in some places like conference room, aw court, libraries,
lecture room and mosques. The jamming device broadcasts
an RF signal in the frequency range reserved for cell phones
that interference with the cell phone signal, which results in a
no network available display on the cell phone screen. All
phones with in the effective radius of the jammer are science.
It should be mentioned that cell phone jammers are illegal
devices in most countries.

A. Mobile jammer
A mobile phone jammer is an instrument used to prevent
cellular phones from receiver signal from based station.
When used, the jammer effectively disables cellular phones
(fig 1). This device can be used in practically any location,
but are found primarily in places where a phone call would

and receive communications from towers (called frequency
division depleting, FDD). Jammers can work by either
disrupting phone to tower frequencies or tower to phone
frequencies. Smaller handheld models block all bands from
800 MHz to 1900 MHz within a 30-foot range (9meters).
Small devices tend to used the former method, while larger
more expensive models many interfere directly with the
tower. The GSM jammer is a device that transmit signal on
the same frequency at which the GSM system operates, the
jamming success when the mobile phone in the area where
the jammer is located cant communicate, the basic idea
military use that was called denial of service attack. Mobile broad cast its signal by sending a particular voltage to the
jammer is used to prevent mobile phone from receiving or
transmitting signal with the base stations. When used, the
jammer effectively disables cellular phones as shown in fig 2. Noise generator: produces random electronic output in a
There are several ways to jam an RF device. The three most
common techniques can be categorized as follows:
Spoofing: In this kind of jamming, the device forces the
mobile to turn off itself. This type is very difficult to be
implemented since the jamming device first detects any
mobile phone in a specific area, then the device sends the
signal to disable the mobile phone .some type of this
technique can detect if a nearby mobile phone is there and
sends a message to tell the user to switch the phone to the
silent mode (intelligent beacon disablers).
Shielding attacks: This is known as TEMPEST or EMF
shielding. This kind required closing an area in a faraday
cage so that any device inside this cage cannot transmit or
receiver RF signal from outside of the cage. This area can be
large as buildings.
Denial of service: This technique is referred to DOS. In this
technique, the device transmits a noise signal at the same
operating frequency of the mobile phone in order to decrease
the signal -to-noise ratio (SNR) of the mobile under its
minimum value. This kind of jamming technique is the
simplest one since the device is always on. Our device is of
this type.

A. Component of mobile jammer
Electronically speaking, cell-phone jammers are very
basic device. The simplest just have an on/off and a light that
indicates its on. More complex device have switches to
activate jamming at different frequencies. Components of
jammer include:

1. Power supply
Smaller jamming device are battery operated. Some look
like cell-phone batteries. Stronger device can be plugged into
a standard outlet or wired in to a vehicles electrical system.
2. Circuitry
The main electronic components of a jammer are:
Voltage-controlled oscillator: generates the radio signal that
will interface with the cell phone signal.
Tuning circuit: controls the frequency at which the jammer
oscillator
specified frequency range to jam the cell-phone network
signal (part of the tuning circuit)
RF amplification (gain stage): boost the power of the radio
frequency output to high enough level to jam a signal
Check your phone: if the battery on your phone is okay and
youd like to continue your conversation, try walking away
from the the area. You may be able to get out of the jammers
range with just a few steps.
3. Antenna
Every jamming device has an antenna to send the signal.
Some are contained rical cabinet. On stronger device,
antennas are external to provide longer range and tuned for
individual frequencies. The effect of jamming depends on the
jamming-to- signal ratio (j/s), modulation schema, channel
coding and interleaving of the target system. Generally
jamming-to- signal ratio can measure according to the
following equation
(1)
Pj=jammer power, Pt-transmitter power, Gjr=antenna gain
from jammer to receiver, Grj=antenna gain from receiver to
jammer , Gtr=antenna gain from transmitter to receiver ,
Grt=antenna gain from receiver to transmitter,
Br=communication receiver bandwidth, Bj=jamming
transmitter bandwidth, Rtr=rang between communication
transmitter and receiver, Rjt=range between jammer and
communication receiver, Lr=jammer signal loss,
Lr=communication signal loss
Jammers simply overflow the frequency used by wireless
phones with radio waves. Jamming signal needs enough
power to collide and cancel GSM signal. Cell phones are
designed to increase their power when facing low level
interface. Jammer should recognize that power. Power of
jamming signal should match the power increase from the
phone. Sophisticated jammers can block several networks to
head off dual or tri-mode phone that automatically switch
among different network to find open signal. High end device
can block all frequencies. GSM(global system for mobile

D. Liquid-crystal display (LCD)

A flat panel display electronic visual display that uses
the light modulation properties of liquid crystal. Liquid
crystals do not emit light directly. LCD are available to
display arbitrary image or fixed image which can be
displayed or hidden, such as preset words, digits, and 7-
segment displays as in a digital clock. They use the same
basic technology, except that arbitrary image is made up of a
large number of small pixels, while other displays have large
elements.

.GSM, which stands for global system for mobile
communication, reigns (important) as the worlds most
widely used cell phone technology. Cell phones use a cell
phone service carriers GSM network by searching for cell
phone towers in the nearby area. Global system for mobile
communication (GSM) is globally accepted standard for
digital cellular communication. GSM is the name of a
standardization group established in 1982 to create a
common European mobile telephone standard that would
formulate specification for a pan-European mobile cellular
radio system operating at 900 MHz it is estimated that many
countries outside of Europe will join the GSM partnership.
