Abstract:- This paper presents the mobile Jammer for
GSM with a fixed range. The jammer broadcast a radio
frequency similar to that of the mobile and interferes with
the signal of the mobile phone that results “No network
available” display on the mobile screen. We have
experimented with a lot of frequencies and found after
tuning and comparison the best frequency for jamming the
mobile phone.

according to the specification of jammer such as frequency
range and coverage range.
IF Section
The IF section consist of Noise generator, mixer and the
triangular wave generator. it is also known as triangular or saw
tooth wave generator. The desired range of frequency is
generated to help the turning section of the jammer brush the
VCO. The turning signal generates the triangular or saw tooth
wave.
Power Supply
Small jammers like which we made are battery powered.
Some even look like a cell phone and use mobile batteries but
the stronger signal jammers can be plugged into car battery or
an A.C power socket. The RF and IF requires +5,+9 and -9 Dc

IV. OBSERVATION
As the signal jammer is turned the red light will show
that the signal jammer is working properly and when we take
our GSM 900 mobile near the signal jammer the network
vanishes and we can observe “No Network Available” on the
screen. On the other hand if we take the cell phone away from
the signal jammer about 10 meters the jammer starts to lose
the range and the network starts to reappear.
V. CONCLUSION
This jammer is tested successfully against an GSM 900
network (on the Nokia 3300) and has proven successful within
1 second of activity and within 1 meter of signal range and can
be extended to 10 meters. The thing which was protect a GSM
network from Jamming was the network signal power but
having a large jamming device the GSM Network could be
jammed for sure .From this project we can conclude that a
normal GSM Mobile is Vulnerable against jamming attack
and can be easily jammed by a portable signal jammer.
