A wireless communications observation system includes one or more distributed wireless antenna assemblies that passively receive digital metadata from one or more wireless electronic devices located within a predetermined area without checking the registration status of the one or more wireless electronic devices, a processor that compares received metadata to values, whether known or machine learned, and a processor that creates a profile for the one or more wireless electronic devices. The system also detects time-based information for the one or more wireless electronic devices. There is storage associated with the one or more radio antenna assemblies for storing at least some of the digital data received.

1. A wireless communications observation system comprising: one or more distributed wireless antenna assemblies that passively receive digital metadata from one or more wireless electronic devices located within a predetermined area without checking the registration status of the one or more wireless electronic devices; processor that compares received metadata to values, whether known or machine learned; processor that creates a profile for the one or more wireless electronic devices; processor that detects time-based information for the one or more wireless electronic devices; and storage associated with the one or more radio antenna assemblies for storing at least some of the digital data received.

2. A wireless observation system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the storage is through connection to the internet and/or over a private transmission path.

3. A wireless observation system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the storage is local to the one or more radio antenna assemblies.

4. A wireless observation system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the digital data includes wireless device meta-data.

5. A wireless observation system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the processing logic of the system may utilize at least in part observed metadata to develop device identities and physical presence history.

6. A wireless communications observation system as claimed in claim 5 wherein the processing logic of the system may utilize at least in part observed physical presence history of devices to develop digital personas.

7. A wireless observation detection system as claimed in claim 5 wherein the one or more radio antenna assemblies can activate one or more cameras or lights upon an alert being triggered.

8. A wireless observation system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the one or more antenna assemblies are further able to detect a wireless electronic device signal strength to estimate distance from the one or more antenna assemblies.

9. A wireless observation system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the system builds an expected wireless electronic device listing through frequency of detection or user input.

10. A wireless observation system as claimed in claim 1 further comprising: two or more antenna assemblies able to determine wireless electronic device location.

11. A wireless observation system as claimed in claim 1 further comprising: a global positioning system providing wireless electronic device time and location information.

12. A wireless observation system as claimed in claim 4 wherein the wireless electronic device meta-data includes one or more of the following: Device name, MAC address, previous wireless networks connected to, BSSID, time and date information is detected.
