MOBILE SIGNAL JAMMER

A mobile phone jammer is an instrument used to prevent cellular phones from receiving
signals from base stations. When used, the jammer effectively disables cellular phones. These
devices can be used in practically any location, but are found primarily in places where a
phone call would be particularly disruptive because silence is expected.

Cell phone jammers are installed in no disturbance zones such as schools or colleges. But
how exactly does this instrument jam cell phones? These jamming instruments prevent
mobiles from receiving signals from the base stations. Though it may sound like a
complicated process making your own cell phone jammer is not really a rocket science.

STEPS TO MAKE OUR OWN CELL PHONE JAMMER

1.Understand the working principles

This cell phone jammer operates at GSM800 frequency since most mobile phones use it to
operate. So the selected VCO is a sweeping oscillator, which is very effective but may be
hard to construct for the beginners without nice RF-testing equipment.

As a noise source you can use a 45MHz clock oscillator which is driving a Local Oscillator
port located on a mini-circuit mixer. There is also an impedance matching network for the
Local Oscillator signal to pass through it. It is used to equate impedances of the clock
oscillator and the port of the mixer.

RF input (which is this port of the mixer) connects to the first 800MHz cell phone antenna,
and the RF output is sent to the mini-circuit amplifier. This amplifier increases the output
power for 15-16dbm. The amplified signal is then sent to the second cell phone antenna.

2.Know how it works

All cell phones which use GSM800 have their transmitted and received
frequencies always separated by 45MHz. So when the mobile phone tries to call, it is blocked
by its own signal returning to it.When the phone blabber annoys you turn your jammer on
and that wrongdoer will hear own voice in his or her cell phone.

We can also use this mobile signal jammer to block any cell-based tracking systems which
use your GPS to track and record our cars moves. And it is quite possible to jam IEDs which
detonated using cell phones.

The mixer used is designed to work up to 600MHz but in this case it works pretty well.

RF amplifier is doing its job perfectly yet draws additional power.

3.Use an old aluminium box as a frame for the jammer and old UHF
connectors from Motorola cell phone as input/output.

4.Attach RF connectors to the circuit.

5.Use a nine volt battery and voltage regulator to supply all components.
Place the battery inside and separated by the foamed plastic from the other components.

Place the power on/off switch on the top.

6.Screw the input and output antennas (also from old Motorola mobile
phone) onto UHF connectors.
Cell phone jammer is ready.
