Definitions

  • FIG 3 INVENTORS THOMAS C. HANKINS DAVID G. BARLEEN ATTORNEYS INTRUSION ALARM SYSTEM WITH TURBULENCE COMPENSATION BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
  • This invention pertains generally to intrusion detectors and more particularly to an ultrasonic system which includes means for distinguishing between the movements of an intruder and other movements such as air turbulence.
  • ultrasonic radiations are transmitted into a space such as a room. These radiations are reflected from the walls or other objects in the room to a receiver-where they are compared with the radiations as originally transmitted. In the absence of motion within the protected room, the received radiations will have the same frequency as the transmitted radiations. When an object moves within the room, the radiations reflected by the moving object arrive at the receiver with a different frequency than that of the transmitted radiations. The difference in frequency is primarily due to the Doppler effect and is dependent upon the rate of movement of the object. The difference in frequency is sensed by the receiver and utilized for actuating an alarm.
  • Intrusion detector systems of the foregoing type which have heretofore been provided have certain limitations. For example, events other than the movement of an intruder can produce changes in the frequency of the reflected radiations and thus tend to cause false alarms. These other events include air turbulence such as that which occurs when a heater is turned on in the protected room. In addition, noise and transient disturbances such as pipes knocking or a book falling from a shelf can cause false alarms.
  • the high-frequency channel contains only the intruder signal
  • the low-frequency channel contains the turbulence signal plus a portion of the intruder signal.
  • the signal in the high-frequency channel is amplified, and the outputs of the channels are compared to produce a control signal for actuating an alarm.
  • This alarm is energized only when the amplified output of the high-frequency channel "is greater than the unamplified output of the low-frequency channel, i.e., only when an intruder is present.
  • the output of the high-frequency channel even though amplified, is too small relative to the output of the low-frequency channel for the alann to be actuated.
  • the intrusion alarm system of the present invention ineludes means for distinguishing signals due to an intruder from those due to air turbulence without reducing the overall efficiency of the system and without requiring two separate channels.
  • the difference signal is passed through a steep-skirted band-pass filter having a center frequency on the order of 40 hertz and a 3 db. bandwidth on the order of 6 hertz.
  • This filtered signal is applied to a pair of oppositely phased voltage doublers which produce positive and negative voltages having magnitudes dependent upon the duration and rate of disturbances in the filtered signal.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a system of the above character which includes means for distinguishing signals due to movements of an intruder and from those due to air turbulence.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a system of the above character which includes means for preventing false alarms due to transients and other disturbances of short duration.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a system of the above character which includes means for cancelling the effects of common mode noise at the input of the system.
  • Another object is to provide a system of the above character which includes failsafe means for energizing the alarm in the event of an interruption of the radiated signals.

  • a pickup device 12 is provided for receiving the radiated energy as it is reflected by objects in the room.
  • the output of the pickup device is delivered to an amplifier l3 and then to a mixer 14 where it is combined with the signal from the oscillator 10 to produce a Doppler or difference signal having a frequency corresponding to the rate of movement of the objects in the room.
  • a detector 16 removes the oscillator frequency from the output of the mixer, and this detected signal is passed through a band-pass filter 17 to a turbulence compensator 18.
  • the output of the turbulence compensator is connected to the input of an integrator 19, and the output of the integrator is connected to a relay driver 21 which includes a relay for controlling the actuation of an alarm 22.

  • Timing capacitors 76, 77 are connected across the outputs of the voltage doublers 63, 64 respectively.
  • the capacitor 77 is chosen to have a value on the order of times the value of the capacitor 76, and consequently the output of the voltage doubler 63 changes more rapidly than does the output of the doubler 64.
  • the capacitors 76, 77 in effect tune the voltage doublers so that high-frequency changes in the output of the amplifier 59 appear as positive voltages at the cathode of the diode 68 and low frequency changes appear as negative voltages at the anode of the diode 73.

  • the integrator 19 includes an operational amplifier 86 having an integrating capacitor 87 connected between its output terminal 88 and inverting input terminal 89.
  • the output of the turbulence compensator is applied to the inverting and noninverting input terminals of this operational amplifier.
  • the wiper 82 of the summing resistor 81 is connected directly to the inverting input terminal 89, and the common output of the voltage doublers is connected to the noninverting input terminal through a diode 92.

  • a filter capacitor 106 is provided for smoothing the output of the detector.
  • the detected oscillator signal produces a negative voltage at the base of the transistor 97, holding this transistor in its conducting condition.
  • the received signal differs in frequency from the transmitted signal by an amount corresponding to the rate of movement of the intruder.
  • the output of the mixer 14 is a signal having a frequency corresponding to the difference in frequency between the transmitted and received signals. Since the different parts of an intruders body normally move at different rates, the output of the mixer is actually a band of frequencies corresponding to the rates of movement of the different parts, rather than the single frequency. With an intruder walking at a normal rate, these frequencies are concentrated at approximately 40 hertz and are passed by the bandpassed filter 17.

  • the output of the integrating amplifier is negative in polarity and is applied to the base of the transistor 96 through the diode 93.

These constant slow movements produce substantially simultaneous positive and negative voltage rises across the timing capacitors 76 and 77, respectively. With the outputs of the voltage doublers substantially equal in magnitude and opposite in polarity, the input to the integrator is substantially zero, and the alarm is not actuated. Thus, air turbulence, which produces maximum energy in the very low frequency region cannot cause actuation of the alarm.
  • a shock noise or transient disturbance has a high frequency and therefore produces a positive voltage at the output of the turbulence compensator.
  • this voltage is of such short duration that the integrating capacitor 87 cannot be charged to the value necessary to turn off the transistor 98 and actuate the alarm.
  • the system is immune to noises such as pipes knocking or books falling from shelves.
  • This system includes means for distinguishing the movements of an intruder from other disturbances such as air turbulence and shock noises. in addition, it includes means for giving an alarm even though the intruder moves abnormally slowly or disables the oscillator.
