Title: Intruder/escapee detection system and method using a distributed antenna and an array of discrete antennas
Inventor: GAGNON ANDRE
IPC: H01Q21/28
Filed: 2000-06-27
Granted: 2010-06-01
Abstract: In a detection system for detecting intruders in the vicinity of a predetermined path or line defined by a distributed antenna, for example an open transmission line, an array of discrete antennas are provided alongside the distributed antenna and within a predetermined distance therefrom. The antennas are spaced apart from each other and the distributed antenna and define a plurality of detection zones. A radio frequency transmitter is connected to one of the distributed antenna and the array of discrete antennas, and a complementary receiver is connected to the other of the distributed antenna and the array of discrete antennas. A control unit controls the transmitter, receiver and array of antennas to exchange radio frequency energy several times via the distributed antenna and selected ones of the array of antennas and to detect perturbations caused by an intruder moving adjacent the path and adjacent a particular antenna. The antennas are scanned in sequence. Any antennas which have shown a perturbation during a previous scan will be scanned more frequently than antennas that have not previously indicated a perturbation. The antennas may be patch antennas and may be fastened to a fence, wall, trees, or a roof with the distributed antenna extending alongside, possibly buried.

Abstract: A hybrid Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) coder processes blocks of (e.g., 8X8) pixels from interlaced or progressive scanned image signals. Processing of image lines by the coder is modified in the presence of image motion to avoid switching between 8X8 and 2X(4X8) transformations. For motion, the lines of two vertically superimposed image blocks are rearranged to produce first and second modified blocks.      The modified first block contains pixels from lines in a first field, and the modified second block contains pixels from lines in an associated adjacent second field.
