Ex 1b: Making the Concertina Wirethe sensing element • The sensor cable is mounted inside the concertina wire along the center axial and held in place by a non-metallic suspender. • A detection field of 3ft (1 m) surrounds the concertina wire. • Transmitters are mounted inside the concertina wire. • 30 m per zone. • More tolerable to high wind. No alarm for up to 2 inches of lateral displacement. Alarms when deformed by more than 6 inches. Auratek Security Inc

A potential replacement for “land mines” !!! • Transmitters are hided into imitation natural object • Detection width of 7ft (2 meters) diameter. • Transmitters include a built-in wire type antenna. • Multiple transmitters can be launched using conventional rocket gun. • One remote receiver can be placed as far as 1 kilometer away using a high gain directional antenna. Auratek Security Inc
Ex 4: Securing any metal platforms • Transmitter is using the metal platform ie: aircraft, tanks, radar, depot shelter, etc. as the transmitting antenna. • A detection field of 3ft (1 m) surrounds the platform in 3D. • Transmitter electronics are mounted inside the platform. • 4 frequencies per transmitter, hence 4 secured metal platforms. • One remote receiver placed as far as 2 kilometers away using a high gain directional antenna.

Zone 1 Zone 4 Zone 3 Zone 2 Ex 5: Transmitting into sections of sensor cable, receiving in a parallel sensor cable Zone 1 Zone 2 Zone 3 . . . Zone 8 • Each cable section form a distinct zone. • One dual frequency transmitter per zone. • 8 zones per system. • Receive via one single parallel cable to form a double width zone. • Typical cable spacing varies between 2m (6’) to 4m (14’) for short and long zones respectively.
