A communications controller is provided for empowering the user of a communications device, such as a telephone or other device, to assume control over incoming communications. Each originator of a communication is identified by unique identification information as information associated with an incoming communication. The user of a receiving communication device selects one of a plurality of different priority levels for a particular originator of a communication. The user also selects block time intervals for each priority to indicate times during which communication will not be passed to user's communications device or other appropriate action is to be taken. When that particular originator of a communication initiates a communication to the user, the user's communication controller determines the originator's identification information and recalls the priority and corresponding blocking time interval for that particular identity. The communication is accordingly permitted to alert the user or blocked with the exception of conditional filtering. Conditional filtering permits the originator of a communication to send a conditional communication along with situational awareness information that is processed specifically for the particular situation. Conditional filtering includes the case of an emergency communication that would override normal communication control. A cognition engine is used to support conditional communication along with an event session. Intelligent data is created and used to support said event sessions.

A device is operable to use received signals to divide time into a succession of frames, each frame having plural consecutive timeslots, and into a succession of four or more superframes. A transmitter is operated only in a single timeslot in one frame. A receiver is operated in the other timeslots in the frame and for all timeslots of immediately preceding and following frames, and in no other frames. This allows devices to predict periods in which to hibernate or carry out intensive tasks. The device determines which timeslots of the first frame are occupied to provide local awareness information, and transmits it as a code on its transmit timeslot along with payload data. This allows other devices in a network to obtain information about their local environment and about the environment of their neighbours. Routing decisions are made on this basis.

Security features a situational awareness system using location tracking information including requiring a security identifier, such as a password or a bio identifier, as a condition to providing situational awareness information. The system may also restrict situational awareness information to data pertaining to members that have creating a permission setting or responded to an “opt-in” prompt authorizing data from their profile to be included in the situational awareness information. Situational awareness information may also be denied to requesters identified as public offenders in a public offender database. Situational awareness information may also be restricted by access rules specified in a security rule base, such as rules related to enrollment and rules related to the age of the requester and the age of a demographic profile of interest identified in the situational awareness request.
