FEIDS - FOAS Enabled Intruder Detection System

铁路环境和关键站点的入侵者是铁路行业的一个主要问题，如果不加以预防，可能会导致严重的延误。传统的监测技术是低范围的，不切实际的，并且具有高部署和操作成本。相反地，为了提高工作效率，需要一种系统，该系统可以在最少的人工监督下监控大范围的周边，并可用于指导铁路工作人员到达正确的位置。泰雷兹的分包商Focus Sensors开发了能够提供持久周边检测系统的技术，该系统可以在人员到达周边边界之前检测到接近现场的人员，并提醒铁路工作人员他们的精确位置。这将支持铁路工作人员有效响应，减少延误时间，确保效率和成本效益。我们建议展示Focus Sensors的下一代光纤声学传感（FOAS）技术的首个应用，该技术利用我们为检测列车开发的横向定位技术，在铁路环境中提供准确和实时的入侵者或潜在入侵者信息和警报。这一能力将使安全人员能够迅速对事件作出反应，并确保入侵者能够得到迅速和有效的处理。FOAS启用的入侵检测系统（FEIDS）将使用FOAS来检测在光纤/周界附近移动的物体，识别它们并确定与边界的距离。这种监控是实时和持久的，当人员或车辆过于接近或越过边界时，可以发送警报。该系统的高保真度意味着入侵者的位置可以精确到+/-50厘米，这一信息对于确保现场安全团队能够快速有效地处理入侵者至关重要。该技术既可以用于铁路沿着，也可以用于特定的敏感地点。由于该系统的远程和自主性，它大大减少了铁路工作人员的工作量。将向工作人员提供自动警报，向他们提供有关入侵者性质和确切位置的信息。这减少了干预的时间，使因风险而减速的列车能够更快地恢复正常速度，降低了侵入的影响。它还增加了入侵者被阻止破坏的可能性，破坏行为可能会扰乱运营，并降低再次犯罪的可能性。

Intruders in a railway environment and critical sites are a major problem for the rail industry, and one that can cause severe delays if not prevented. Conventional monitoring technology is low range, impractical and has a high deployment and operational cost. Instead, a system that can monitor the perimeter of a large area with minimal human supervision and can be used to direct rail staff to the correct location is required to introduce work efficiencies.Thales' subcontractor Focus Sensors have developed the technologies capable of delivering a persistent perimeter detection system that can detect persons approaching a site before they reach the perimeter boundary and alert railway staff to their precise location. This will support railway staff to respond effectively and reduce delay minutes, insuring efficiency and cost benefits.We propose to showcase a first-of-a-kind application of Focus Sensors' next-generation Fibre Optic Acoustic Sensing (FOAS) technology to deliver accurate and real-time information and alerts on intruders or potential intruders in a rail environment using our lateral-positioning technology developed for detection trains. This capability will enable security staff to rapidly respond to incidents and ensure intruders can be dealt with quickly and efficiently.The FOAS-Enabled Intrusion Detection System (FEIDS) will use FOAS to detect objects moving near the fibre/perimeter, identify them and determine the distance from a boundary. This monitoring is both real-time and persistent, enabling alerts to be sent when a person or vehicle gets too close to or crosses a boundary. The high fidelity of the system means that an intruder's location can be determined to an accuracy of +/- 50cm, and this information is crucial to ensuring that on-site security teams are able to quickly and efficiently deal with the intruder.This technology can be utilised both along sections of the railway and at specific, sensitive sites. Due to the long range and autonomous nature of the system, it drastically reduces the workload of railway staff. Staff will be provided with an automatic alert that will provide them with information on the nature of the intruder(s) and the exact location. This reduces the time for intervention, enabling trains slowed due to the risk to resume at normal speed quicker, lowering the impact of trespass. It also increases the likelihood of trespassers being stopped committing vandalism, which can disrupt operations, and reduces the likelihood of reoffending.
