Abstract: The Mobile Phone Detector Circuit is a novel electrical circuit that was designed to recognise the presence of active mobile phones within a limited space that are transmitting radio frequency (RF) signals. Along with capacitors, resistors, a BC548 NPN transistor, and a 5mm Red LED, this circuit incorporates an LM358 Dual Op-Amp IC as the primary detector of RF signals. Other components include a 5mm Red LED. The RF signals that are picked up by a 15 cm Single Strand Wire Antenna are interpreted by the LM358 Op-Amp, which is functioning as a frequency detector. Signal transfer is facilitated by capacitors, and the BC548 transistor controls the amount of LED illumination in response to the detection of RF signals. Adjusting the sensitivity of a 2.2M Potentiometer such that it fits a variety of detection ranges is possible. The LED functions as a visual indicator whenever an active mobile phone within a range of 1.5 metres generates radio frequency (RF) signals. The adaptability of this circuit makes it useful for applications in security systems and other domains where mobile phone activity monitoring is required. Because of its versatile construction and accurate detecting capabilities, it is a useful instrument in a variety of different contexts.
Description:The Mobile Phone Detector Circuit is a sophisticated electrical device that was developed to identify the presence of active mobile phones emitting radio frequency (RF) signals within a range of 1.5 metres. It does this by scanning the area for phones that are transmitting these signals. It is made up of a variety of components, the most important of which is the LM358 Dual Op-Amp IC (101), which serves as a frequency detector to determine the source of RF signals coming from mobile devices. The flow of current through the system is controlled by resistors (102, 103, and 104), which are part of the circuit that has been designed to capture and transmit RF signals using capacitors (106, 107). The output of the LM358 is connected to a BC548 NPN Transistor (108), which enables operation of a 5mm Red LED (109), which acts as an indication for detected RF activity. In addition, a 2.2 megaohm potentiometer (105), which may be used to fine-tune the detecting circuit's sensitivity range and enable customization for a variety of different environmental circumstances, is included in the package. The RF signals that are transmitted by mobile phones can be picked up by the circuit, which is powered by a 4.5V Battery (111) and employs a 15cm Single Strand Wire Antenna (110) to do so. When radio frequency (RF) activity is detected, the LED lights up to provide a visible signal to the user, indicating the presence of a mobile device that is being actively used. This system is versatile and has the potential to be applied in a variety of contexts, such as in security systems or other locations where it is vital to monitor the use of mobile phones. , Claims:We Claim:
