Project TranQuiL: Long Range Detection and Localization of RFI in Radio Quiet Zones
We present TranQuiL, a novel long-range detection and localization system that can detect and localize an interfering transmitter at large distances. Our key innovation is the development of an enhanced beacon packet detection pipeline which enables significant range improvement. We implement and evaluate our system for an interfering WiFi and Bluetooth transmitter across two testbeds: (1) the Green Bank Observatory in West Virginia and (2) around a large manufacturing facility in Pittsburgh PA.
