　　2. Proposal to install jammers: a key step to improve prison security

　　In order to deal with the growing problem of mobile phone smuggling, the expert group recommends installing mobile phone signal jammers in prisons.drone jammer According to prison director Shivraj Singh Nandgarh, these jammers will prevent prisoners from obtaining mobile phone signals through illegal means, thereby significantly reducing illegal communication activities inside the prison. The function of the jammer is to cut off the connection between the mobile phone and the external network, making it impossible to make calls or send messages, thereby effectively eliminating the possibility of prisoners manipulating external crimes through mobile phones.

　　3. Practical application of jammers: challenges and countermeasures

　　Although the installation of jammers seems to be an effective means to solve the problem, its implementation also faces many challenges. First, the signal coverage of the jammer needs to be precisely adjusted to avoid interfering with legal communications outside the prison. Second, prisoners may take more covert means, such as using encrypted communication software or special equipment to bypass the jammer. In addition, the maintenance and operation costs of jammers are high, which may put additional pressure on the fiscal budget. Therefore, when installing jammers, other measures need to be supplemented, such as strengthening prison patrols and searches.
