Abstract
A method and system for preventing a wireless device from interfering with equipment within a sensitive area is disclosed. The method comprises transmitting a radio signal from the sensitive area to the wireless device; receiving the radio signal by the wireless device; and then deactivating at least one portion of the wireless device based upon receiving the radio signal. A system and method in accordance with the present invention allows for the automatic deactivation of a portion of a wireless device that is disruptive to the sensitive area. For example, if the user is utilizing a laptop computer which emits radiation that might interfere with successful operations of an airplane, those portions of the laptop that emit radiation that is disruptive would be turned off automatically but other functions of the laptop computer would still be available to the user.
