INTRUSION PRODUCT
BURIED CABLE DETECTION SYSTEMS
MicroTrack™ from SouthWest Microwave is a revolutionary
buried cable detection system for applications where covert
perimeter protection is essential. MicroTrack is a volumetric,
terrain-following sensor that reliably detects and precisely
locates walking, running or crawling intruders along a
facility’s perimeter.
With a coverage range of 400m per processor, the
MicroTrack system consists of a MicroTrack processor unit
and two 200-meter sensor cable pairs that may be buried
along a facility’s perimeter in soil, asphalt or concrete. A
detection field is created around each pair of sensor cables,
enabling the detection of intrusions.
MicroTrack sensor cables are divided into subcells via system software. There
are typically 100 subcells per 200 m cable pair.
To initiate detection, the MicroTrack processor sends out ultra wide-band,
coded RF signals via the transmit cable. As these signals couple with the receive
cable, an invisible electromagnetic detection field is generated above and below
the ground surface and along the cable pair.
When a target enters the detection field, the receive cable picks up the altered
signal in the disturbed field and transmits it to the processor. The processor
analyzes the phase and amplitude of the altered signal and compares this
with the calibrated threshold. If the target exceeds the threshold, an alarm is
declared and its precise location identified.

Principles of Detection and Location
System Components
MicroTrack pinpoints the location of perimeter disturbances using a target’s spatial and time signatures to discriminate
legitimate intrusions from harmless disturbances caused by small animals or environmental factors such as wind, rain or
snow. The system’s high signal-to-noise ratio and precise target location produce superior probability of detection and a
very low false/ nuisance alarm rate.
