Systems and methods for communication control in a restricted environment

1. A system for controlling wireless communications and restricting operation of unauthorized wireless communications devices, comprising:

a non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium storing a program of machine instructions that, when executed by a processor, allow the processor to control operation of radio frequency equipment to establish an active, persistent, and repetitive communication with a wireless device operating in a coverage area of a local wireless network established as an overlay to a part of a macro wireless network and to control the radio frequency equipment to:

lock the wireless device to the local wireless network;

initiate a first call process with the wireless device, wherein the processor controls the RF equipment to:

place a first call to the wireless device,

complete a first call connection to the wireless device,

send a first message to the wireless device,

receive and process a first response to the first message from the wireless device,

clear the first call;

persistently repeat a call process of:

placing a subsequent call to the wireless device,

completing a subsequent call connection with the wireless device,

sending a subsequent message to the wireless device,

receiving and processing a subsequent response from the wireless device to the subsequent message, and

clearing the subsequent call; and

end persistent repeat of the call process upon detection of a termination event from the wireless device consisting of a power off of the wireless device.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein a call is a voice call and a message is a voice message.

3. The system of claim 2 , wherein a response is an outgoing voice call from the wireless device.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein a call is a text (SMS) message.

5. The system of claim 4 , wherein a response is an outgoing text (SMS) message.

6. The system of claim of claim 1 , wherein a call is a data communication.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the call process is repeated until the wireless device attempts to place an outgoing call.

8. The system of claim 1 , wherein a response is a disconnection action initiated by the wireless device, and wherein the first call process is reinitiated.

9. A system that controls communications traffic for wireless devices operating in a local wireless network established by operations of wireless communications hardware comprising a processor radio frequency (RF) distribution equipment, an antenna, an amplifier, and a base station, the system, comprising:

a non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium storing machine instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:

generate and manage the local wireless network, and

establish persistent, repetitive inbound communications to the wireless devices, comprising controlling the RF distribution equipment to:

place first call to a wireless device;

receive a first answer from the wireless device;

establish a first connection with the wireless device,

send a first message to the wireless device;

receive and process a first response from the wireless device;

initiate a first call clearance; and

repeating a call function of placing a call, receiving an answer, establishing a connection, sending a message receiving and processing a response from the wireless device, and initiating a call clearance until the wireless device powers off.

10. The system of claim 9 , wherein calls are voice calls and messages are voice messages.

11. The system of claim 9 , wherein calls are text (SMS) messages.

12. The system of claim 9 , wherein calls are data communications.

13. The system of claim 9 , wherein the call function is repeated until the wireless device attempts to place an outgoing call.

14. The system of claim 9 , wherein the response is a disconnection action initiated by the wireless device, and wherein the call function is reinitiated.

15. A method for managing wireless device communications, comprising:

establishing active, persistent, and repetitive communications with a wireless device operating in a coverage area of a local wireless network established as an overlay to a part of a macro wireless network by:

locking the wireless device to the local wireless network,

placing a first call to the wireless device,

completing a first call connection to the wireless device,

sending a first message to the wireless device,

receiving and processing a first response to the first message from the wireless device,

clearing the first call,

persistently repeating a call process of placing a call, completing a connection, sending a message, and receiving and processing a response to the message, and clearing the call, and

ending persistent repeating of the call process upon detection of a termination event from the wireless device comprising a power off of the wireless device.

16. The method of claim 15 , wherein calls are voice calls and messages are voice message.

17. The method of claim 15 , wherein calls are text (SMS) messages.

18. The method of claim 15 , wherein the call process is repeated until the wireless device attempts to place an outgoing call.

19. The method of claim 15 , wherein the wireless device powers off comprises manual shutdown of the wireless device at the wireless device.

20. The method of claim 15 , wherein the response is a disconnection action initiated by the wireless device, the method comprising reinitiating the call process.
