PointerCept™

Hybrid System, Single Unit - Utilizing Cellular & RF Technology

Pointercept is a Hybrid telemetry system developed for improved security, theft prevention and recovery of vehicles,
assets and cargo, utilizing dual mode communication technology including Cellular communication across 2G/3G
networks and a backup, one-way RF beacon communication. The Hybrid telematics end unit installed in the vehicle
or on other mobile asset continuously monitors security and operational parameters and establishes a cellular
communication session with the backend whenever required. Upon failure to report a security compromise to the
backend due to a jammed channel, server unavailability or lack of coverage during a predefined time, the device
starts to operate a periodic RF-beacon status transmission, while checking from time to time whether cellular
communication can be reestablished. The periodic RF transmission can be received by a network of sparsely
deployed fixed and/or mobile receivers, spread in the area of coverage and connected to the backend through 3G
cellular communication.

Hybrid Security Network

How does it work?

1. The end-unit installed in the vehicle establishes a cellular communication session with the backend whenever
required according to the device configuration or when security event is detected.
2. In cases of jamming, server failure or lack of coverage the device starts to operate a periodic RF beacon status
transmission, while checking from time to time whether cellular communication can be reestablished.
3. The periodic RF transmission can be received by a network of deployed fixed receivers (PointerCept Base)
and/or by mobile receivers (PointerCept Wheeler) which are cost effectively deployed according to operational
needs to cover a specific area, city, runaway paths or even country-wide.
4. Signals received by the PointerCept Base and PointerCept Wheeler units are forwarded to the backend in order
to identify the vehicle's location as projected by its embedded GPS (or Cell-ID information), or to estimate its
location based on RSSI triangulation technics.

5. Last mile chasing is performed by the PointerCept Mobile unit, used as hand-held receiver to receive the RF
beacon transmissions sent by the end-unit and to indicate the direction from which the signal arrives and the
relative distance of the vehicle from the chasing device, based on the signal strength.
6. In networks without fixed receivers, chasing vehicles are sent to the last known location area of the vehicle, to
start exploring the area methodically in order to trace the RF beacon signal.
7. Once RF beacon is locked, the chasing vehicles can reach the indicated location of the stolen vehicle using the
PointerCept Chaser application, communicating with the PointerCept Mobile receiver through BT technology.
8. In case the GPS fix is available; it can easily be reached via the application maps. Alternatively, it can be
approached based on the direction and strength of the signals indicated by the PointerCept Mobile unit.
9. In such cases, the information received by the mobile receivers is uploaded to the back-end, which may use the
data received from multiple mobile and fixed receivers in order to apply real-time triangulation that can assist
the chasing vehicles to rapidly close gap to the stolen vehicle.

Highlights:
 A Hybrid Cellular/ ISM UHF RF telemetry system
o Cellular communication across 2G/3G networks
o A backup, one way communication channel (RF beacon)
 Jamming immunity - the RF channel enables transmission from the end unit and successful reception in the
receiver even in a jammed environment.
 Location technology - vehicle location based on an embedded GPS or on RSSI triangulation techniques. Last mile
chasing after a stolen vehicle is executed using a mobile chasing device.
 RF communication frequencies - in beacon mode the system operates within the unlicensed UHF ISM 902-
928Mhz.
 Low-cost deployment thanks to the modularity of the system which can include fixed receivers (PointerCept
Base) and/or mobile receivers (PointerCept Wheeler and PointerCept Mobile).
 Cellocator CR300B end unit now also supports transmission of RF beacon upon jamming detection and we plan
to introduce the same technology to the Cello and CelloTrack units in the future.

PointerCept System Building Blocks

Cellocator PointerCept PointerCept PointerCept PointerCept Chaser
CR300B Base 2G
CR-300 Wheeler Mobile Application

PointerCept Base - a fixed receiver / RF-Gateway installed in a permanent location (such as communication towers,
lamp post or building rooftop), connected to an AC power source (via a 24V power supply).
o Excellent Sensitivity (124 dBm) - up to 20Km reception distance
o Six Channels per receiver box -receive up to 6 units concurrently
o Wireless connectivity to server and OTA for upgrades and maintenance purposes.
o Bluetooth 2.0 – technician remote configuration
o Excellent outdoor compatibility - IP 66 in addition to sun guard to protect from direct sunlight
o Internal Power Backup battery for up to 12 hours with auto recovery when main power is available
again

PointerCept Mobile – connected to the car's lighter with the Omni antenna outside the car to be used by the
chasers. For last-mile scenarios carried out on foot, the mobile receive can be disconnected from the lighter,
connected to the Yagi antenna and carried in a unique carrying bag.

o Excellent Sensitivity (120 dBm) - Up to 5Km reception distance

o Automatic transition from “chase mode” to “mobile receiver mode”
o Small sized and light weighted
o Internal Power Backup battery up to 12 hours
o One Input, One Output (LED\Buzzer indication)
o Connectivity to Pointercept Chaser Application

PointerCept Wheeler - installed in a mobile platform (usually a vehicle) while connected to a 12/24V power source
(the vehicle battery) and the Omni antenna is outside. It can be used with various fleets that have car spread around
a specific area in order to receive and transmit data to the back-end.

o Zero management – no driver intervention required.

o A covert installation of the receiver except for the vehicle's rooftop antenna.
o Cello 3G capabilities included to also be used for fleet management.
o Same technical features as PointerCept Mobile.

PointerCept Chaser Application

The PointerCept Chaser application enables real time indication of the RSSI and location (if available) of chased
vehicles for last mile chasing and pinpointing.
 Provides location indication based on online maps (Google) and offline maps (in cases where no GSM is
available)
 Includes two operational modes "Scan" and "Chase".
 Direct connection to the CCC to enable chaser guide and location assessment.
 Available for Android 4.0 and up via BT (SPP protocol)
 Technician mode- assists the technician during the Pointercept Base installation, by indicating if there any
malfunctions.

Components cost estimation

The below cost estimation may vary since we are performing the beta phase of the PointerCept.

 PointerCept Base – 5,000 USD (excluding OMNI antenna*)

 PointerCept Wheeler – 2,000 USD.
 PointerCept Mobile – 2,400 USD.

*We can provide specs to buy the OMNI antenna directly from the closest location in order to save in shipping costs
(3 meters length.)

Additional activities:

 Fill a site survey form in order to simulate the amount of antennas and estimate coverage.
 Training and integration will come in a later phase and will be quoted accordingly.
