Novelty in Synergistic Radar Technology, by Adding Intrusion Location Capability

Abstract

There is a new trend in the outdoor security market that demands more precision in identifying the crossing area of an intruder. Often called 'intrusion location capability', this capability also presents inherent features such as; more accuracy in camera pre-set positioning, temporary disabling of sub-zone and individual sensitivity level per sub-zone. However, even though the market trend demands them, such features must have minimum impact to the overall system cost. This paper presents how the Synergistic Radar technology can be modified to offer intruder location capability to a sub-zone area as precise as 10% of the total zone length. In other word, for a typical zone length of 100 meters, the zone is subdivided in to up to ten equally spaced sub-zones of 10 meters each, giving an intrusion crossing point resolution of 10 meters. The Synergistic Radar technology can be applied to buried, surface, wall and roof applications. This 'intrusion location capability' also applies to each of these applications.
