Perimeter Monitoring System Design

Perimeter monitoring is the first line of defense for any security system, broken down simply it is the monitoring of the perimeter or border of a property. Perimeter monitoring system design has to take into account all aspects of the property in question to ensure that it not only protects the property but also deters possible intruders.

There are several different types of perimeter security systems, some of these include:

• CCTV Security Systems: closed circuit television that involves surveillance of the property using external camera systems
• Access Control Systems: systems that restrict entry to a property to only authorized personnel that have to prove their identity through some type of identification system
• Motion Sensors: sensors that detect motion through the use of infrared rays
• Fiber Optic Detection Systems: fiber optic cables that detect the presence of an intruder, typically used to protect fences and walls on large properties
• Ground Radar Systems: radar systems that can detect intruders at a distance before they are actually on the property
• Microwave Barriers: barriers that can detect the presence and movement of an intruder that is totally hidden using microwave emissions instead of direct vision
• Electrified Fences: a fence that is electrified and will give an intruder that tries to cut or climb it a series of electric shocks and also activates an alarm (not legal in all countries)
• Microphone Cable Fence Disturbance: a cable that runs along the fence line that when attempted to be cut or climbed will emit an alarm
• Electrostatic Field Disturbance Sensors: sensors that create an electric field using conductors and grounding which detect an intruder’s presence when this field has any type of interruption
• Spot Vibration Sensors: sensors that are wireless and are typically placed on doors, windows and other points of entry that sense vibration and triggers an alarm are great security solutions.
• Seismic Sensors: One of the higher level security solutions are sensors that detect vibrations that could be coming from several different places, typically used on things such as vaults in banks that would need to be able to detect vibrations such as drilling through walls to get to a vault.

All of these types of perimeter alarm systems work to avoid unauthorized access by anyone that should not be on the premises.
