Abstract

A fiber optic sensor for a perimeter surveillance system 10. The sensor 15 comprises: a series array of fiber optic point sensors 16A, 16B, 16C, 16D,..., in which successive point sensors are linked by a distributed fibre optic sensors 18A, 18B, 18C, 18D,..., a data link 14, and an interrogation unit 12. This unit may analyse optical signals received from the sensor 15 to establish the position of an intruder event, or the position at which an object or person has crossed a path defined by the length of the sensor that may be positioned below the ground.

Description

FIBRE-OPTIC SURVEILLANCE SYSTEM
The present invention relates to fibre-optic surveillance systems.
It is known to use optical fibres as sensing elements to detect pressure, strain etc. with conditions external to an optical fibre being inferred from changes in characteristics, such as amplitude, frequency or polarization, in light output from the fibre. An example is the pressure sensor described in European Patent number 0 365 062.
One approach to perimeter surveillance is to arrange a single length of optical fibre below ground level around a perimeter to be monitored, and to couple radiation from an LED or laser-diode into the fibre. Pressure on the fibre due to the weight of a person, vehicle or other object crossing a perimeter defined by the fibre causes a change in the amount of radiation back-scattered within the fibre (due to bending of the fibre) , and hence the presence of an intruder can be detected.
However, such a system has three significant disadvantages, namely (i) the position at which an intruder crosses the perimeter cannot be determined accurately, (ii) a significant false-alarm rate and (iii) no information is given about the nature if the intruding person or object.
According to a first aspect of the invention, these problems are ameliorated by a fibre-optic sensor for a surveillance system, in which the sensor comprises a serial array of fibre-optic point sensors, wherein successive point sensors are linked by a distributed fibre-optic sensor.
To provide positional information on intruders events, the sensor is preferably comprised in a fibre-optic surveillance system which further comprises an interrogation system (12) for analysing optical signals received from the sensor to establish the position of an intruder event.
Corresponding to the first aspect of the invention, a second aspect thereof provides a method of establishing the position at which an object moving on a surface crosses a closed path, or an open path of fixed length, thereon, characterized in that the method comprises the steps of (i) positioning a sensor according to claim 1 on or below said path; and (ii) analysing optical signals received from the sensor to establish the position of the object along the path, or the position at which the object has crossed said path.
An embodiment of the invention are described below by way of example only and with reference to the accompanying drawing in which schematically illustrates a fibre-optic perimeter surveillance system according to the invention.
In Figure 1, a fibre-optic perimeter surveillance system according to the invention is indicated generally by 10. The system 10 comprises a series of fibre-optic point sensors 16A, 16B, 16C, 16D, , 16N (in this example, geophones) optically linked by a series of distributed fibre-optic sensors 18B, 18C, 18D, , 18N to form a fibre-optic sensor array 15. A data link 14 couples the geophone 16A to an interrogation unit 12. The data link 14 may be a length of optical fibre, so that optical signals are passed to the interrogation unit 12, or alternatively it may comprise a detector which converts optical signals into electrical signals and either a fixed electrical, or wireless, link to the interrogation unit 12.
The distributed fibre-optic sensors 18B, 18C, 18D, , 18N each have a physical length of 100m. There are 250 geophones in the array 15, so that the separation of geophones 16A,16N may be up to approximately 24.9km.
Each of the geophones 16A, 16B, 16C, 16D, , 16N comprises approximately 100m of optical fibre wound onto a flexural disc, and is able to measure acceleration and displacement via strain induced in the fibre. Each of the distributed sensors 18B, 18C, 18D, , 18N comprises 100m of optical fibre packaged within a cable and can measure pressure on, or bend of, the cable, also via strain induced on the fibre.
The array 15 may be arranged in any desired configuration, for example it may be arranged around a closed path to provide perimeter surveillance for e.g. a building; alternatively it may be arranged in a linear manner to provide information on the location of a person/object crossing a straight line defined by the array 15.
The system 10 operates as follows. When a person or object crosses a line or perimeter on or underneath which the array 15 is positioned, radiation within a distributed fibre-optic sensor corresponding to the location where the person/object crosses is reflected back to geophone 16A and a corresponding signal giving approximate location is passed to the interrogation unit 12. More particularly the interrogation unit 12 is able to identify that a crossing has occurred somewhere along the length of the array 15. Radiation is also reflected back from the geophones at either end of that distributed sensor, and corresponding signals are also passed to the interrogation unit 12. The interrogation unit 12 carries out triangulation of the signals received from the distributed sensor and the geophones at either end of it to accurately determine the location along the array at which the person/object has crossed on the basis of the time at which signals are received. By using data from both types of sensor, it is possible to provide much more accurate classification of the person/object than is achievable through use of one sensor type alone. Improved classification results in a lower false-alarm rate.
In the example system 10, the point fibre-optic sensors are geophones, however other types of fibre-optic point sensor may be used.
The number of point and distributed sensors may vary according to both the length of a perimeter or path which is desired to be monitored, and the accuracy with which it is desired to locate intruder events. The simplest fibre-optic sensor of the invention would comprise a single distributed sensor having a point sensor at each end.
