Abstract
There is a new trend in the outdoor security market that demands more preci sion in identifying the crossing area of an intruder. Often called intrusio n location capability, this capability also presents inherent features such as more accuracy in camera pre-set positioning and temporary disabling of sub-zone and individual sensitivity level per sub-zone. However even though market trend demands them, such features must have minimum impact to overa ll system cost. How the Synergistic Radar technology can be modified to offer intruder loca tion capability to a sub-zone area as precise as 10% of the total zone leng th is presented. For a typical zone length of 100 meters, the zone is sub-d ivided into up to ten equally spaced sub-zones of 10 meters each, giving an intrusion crossing point resolution of 10 meters. Synergistic Radar technology can be applied to buried, surface, wall and ro of applications. This intrusion location capability also applies to each of these applications.
