Objective

  • Each application dictates the appropriate

barrier and detection system selection.

  • The objective of this presentation is to

provide guidance for the application of fiber

  • ptic sensor on the most commonly-

encountered barrier variations.

Barrier Variations

  • Chain-Link
  • Steel Pales, Pickets
  • Welded Mesh
  • Anti-Climb Fabrics
  • Expanded Metal
  • C-Wire, Razor Ribbon
  • Walls and Wall Tops
  • Wrought Iron

Fiber Optic Sensor – Theory of Operation

  • The multiple modes of light found in

multimode fiber form a random- intensity pattern known as a “speckle pattern.” The speckle pattern remains relatively constant and stationary if the fiber is undisturbed.

  • However, when the fiber is

disturbed due to motion, vibration,

  • r pressure, the alarm processor

witnesses a change in the speckle pattern and is designed to determine what the nature of the event is.

slide-7
SLIDE 7

Theory of Operation (cont.)

  • Very small changes in the multimode

speckle pattern are detected and analyzed by the system’s digital signal processors

slide-8

General Sensor Guidelines

  • Apply sensor based on the threat(s)

– Cut/Penetration: lower sensor run – Scaling and climb-over: all sensor runs – Ladder-assisted climb-over: upper sensor run

slide-9

Sensor Location Guidelines

  • Install sensor on the secure side of the

barrier (inside of the outer fence fabric)

  • Install sensor as close as possible to

expected point of impact with the barrier

– You want to use the minimal amount of “gain” or “sensitivity” to obtain the desired

  • PoD. This minimizes NAR.
slide-10
SLIDE 10

Sensor Location Guidelines (cont.)

  • Accommodate coexistence on the barrier

with other systems and infrastructure.

  • Be mindful of vulnerability to

vandalism/attack and maintainability when locating sensor.

Fence Barriers

  • Attach sensor (in flexible conduit) using

stainless steel ties every one foot of sensor.

  • Use two runs of sensor for the first eight

feet of fence height for chain link, welded mesh, and expanded metal fabrics.

  • Add a run of sensor for each additional four

feet of fence height.

Fence Barriers

  • Install additional sensor for reinforced

panels, along pull posts, and for service loops.

  • Within a detection zone, the barrier

structure must be homogeneous. Do not combine different fence types such as chain link and expanded metal within a zone.

Fence Barriers

  • Keep in mind that the more rigid the

structure, the smaller the propagation of vibrations.

slide-28
SLIDE 28

Rigid Metal Panel Barrier

  • Sensor is most often attached to the fence.
  • Sensor may be installed in the fence, but

this must occur in conjunction with the fence construction.

Detection in Top Guard Obstacle

  • PL-1 military-style configuration

– Top run of sensor extends to cover

  • utriggers
  • Separate detection zones for sensor run in

top guard obstacles

Walls

  • Penetration detection

– Sensor mounted to the secure side of wall in a “serpentine” pattern

  • Climb-over detection

– Sensor in top guard or on outriggers – Sensor on stand-offs to detect hand-hold or foot-hold attempts

Gates

  • Sensor can be installed on swing-type

gates, crossing the hinge at a diagonal to prevent kinking of the sensor

  • Use a cable trolley system or separate

motion sensor to protect sliding gate areas

Other Concerns

  • Loose fence fabric or components
  • Loose signage
  • Conduits run along interior of the barrier
  • Drainage culverts
  • Vegetation and overhanging tree branches
  • Wildlife
  • Weather
  • Testing Methods
