    This document discusses the design and use of a sniffer device to detect lost mobile phones. It describes how each mobile phone has a unique IMEI number that is transmitted when powered on and can be used to identify stolen phones. The sniffer device acts as a small mobile base station that includes a sniffer base station, unidirectional antenna, and tracking software. It operates at a different frequency than local cell towers to detect IMEI numbers of lost phones near its location and help identify and recover stolen devices in a cost effective and low power way.

    The main scope of this paper is to detect the
    lost mobiles.
    Each and every day thousands of mobiles get
    misplaced or lost, though effective way for
    the blocking of the lost mobile to prevent
    unauthorized person from making and
    receiving the calls has been done by the
    manufacturers of the mobile with the help of
    IMEI number
    For the detection of lost mobile SNIFFER plays
    a vital role .


    The sniffer device has to be designed
    precisely and size should be reduced for easy
    mobility for the purpose of detection .
    Each mobile device has a globally unique
    IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity)

    IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity)
    numbering system is a 15 digit unique code
    that is used to identify the GSM phone

    To know the IMEI number the *#06# has to be
    pressed, the number will be displayed in the
    LCD screen

    When a phone is switched on, this unique
    IMEI number is transmitted and checked
    against a data base of black listed or grey
    listed phones in the networks EIR

    Grey listing will allow the phone to be used,
    but it can be tracked to see who has it (via
    the SIM information).

    The sniffer device can be called as a mobile
    base station that includes the following
    important components:

    1. Sniffer base station
    2. Unidirectional antenna
    3. Tracking software

    The sniffer is a small base station, it includes
    transceiver section.


    It should operate at a frequency that is much
    different from the frequency of the current
    cell in which the operation of detection is
    being carried out.

    The directional antenna acts as the eyes for
    the sniffer for the purpose of the detecting
    the lost mobile phones.

    Antenna is a device which works at specified
    frequencies range for transmitting or
    receiving the data signal.

    In general, antennas transmit power
    depending on lobe pattern which varies from
    one antenna to the other.

    The software is used for the tracking of
    the lost mobile phone

    The programming is done with C or Java.
    However the C is most preferred as it is easily
    embedded with the chips.
    This method is used for finding the lost
    mobiles effectively

    Cost effective

    low power consumption

    Easy to design
    There are certain boundary conditions that
    have to be qualified for the identification of
    lost mobile like the power of the mobile
    should be good enough, the mobile phone
    should not be in the shadow region but
    however this method using modern
    technologies and devices.
