Perimeter Monitoring Techniques
First Claim
1. A method for monitoring a border, which may be a periphery of an installation, comprising:
- arranging sensors along the border;
obtaining data about the border via the sensors;
analyzing the data to determine the presence of a reportable condition relating to passage of an object proximate or over the border; and
transmitting the data or a signal indicative of the analysis, optionally with an identification or location of the sensors, to a monitoring facility.

Abstract
Method for monitoring borders or peripheries of installations includes arranging sensors periodically along the border at least partially in the ground, the sensors being sensitive to vibrations, infrared radiation, sound or other disturbances, programming the sensors to wake-up upon detection of a predetermined condition and receive a signal, analyzing the signal and transmitting a signal indicative of the analysis with an identification or location of the sensors. The sensors may include a processor embodying a pattern recognition system trained to recognize characteristic signals indicating the passing of a person or vehicle.
