As I read it, that's a fine way to detect the presence of a cell phone. It might be able to discriminate between several models of cell phones. But it will not be able to identify a specific cell phone.
Am I misreading your statements?
- dogma1138 10y agoYes, I said it was used to track cell phones in low density areas back when they were simply enough for this trick to work, what I assume is that if someone back then had a cell phone/radio phone/sat phone or anything similar with a susceptible transmitter in the middle of nowhere-stan you could probably identify them via other means, or at least be able to classify them sufficiently.
- quesera 10y agoThat makes sense. I think I veered off into confusion from the comment about the inductively-powered LEDs.
