Perimeter security is one of the most common applications of DAS. By deploying fiber-optic cables along the perimeter fence (PIDS Security), DAS can detect and locate intruders attempting to breach the fence. DAS is capable of detecting subtle sounds and vibrations such as footsteps, digging, cutting, or climbing sounds, which can trigger an alarm and alert security personnel in real-time.
Pipeline security is another application of DAS. By deploying fiber-optic cables along the length of the pipeline, DAS can detect and locate attempted sabotage or any activity that could potentially damage the pipeline. DAS is also able to detect leaks in the pipeline by monitoring the acoustic signals generated by the leaking fluid.
Border security is another area where DAS can be deployed. DAS can detect and locate any suspicious activity such as digging or tunnelling by installing fibre-optic cables along the border. DAS can also be used to monitor the movement of people and vehicles along the border.
Building security is another application of DAS. By installing fibre-optic cables in buildings, DAS can detect intruders, identify their location, and track their movements. This information can be used to alert security personnel in real time, allowing them to respond quickly to any security threat.
Overall, DAS is a promising technology for security applications due to its ability to provide continuous monitoring, precise location detection, and the ability to detect even subtle sounds and vibrations that would be missed by other sensors. With the increasing demand for security in today’s world, DAS is expected to become an increasingly popular technology for security applications in the coming years.
