System Installation Guide
PSR-500 System is a radar system designed for surveillance and protection of critical
site against all human intrusion. In option, the PSR-500 System can be coupled with
a video camera to efficiently confirm visually the intrusion and identify the intruder
while the deployed radars monitor the whole coverage zone.

4.1. Possible System Architecture
The architecture of the PSR-500 System may substantially differ depending on the
operational context and on possible equipment. Two general solutions of installation
are possible:
Solution 1 = Independent standalone deployment
Solution 2 = Integration with an external hypervisor/supervisor
4.1.1. Standalone Deployment
The following scheme presents a system architecture example for a standalone
deployment (solution 1) and for a 2 radars configuration. Yellow labels indicate

4.2. System elements definition
4.2.1. Sensor Unit (SU)
The Sensor unit is the radar. It is the active part of the system that illuminates the
area with an FMCW waveform (Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave).
The Sensor Unit transmits the signal that is backscattered by the environment
(human intrusion but also environment i.e. ground, vegetation,
received by the antenna. The received signal is digitalized within the Sensor unit and
delivered through Ethernet.
Note: Radar theory related to this technology will be reminded in the chapter
dedicated to site radar implantation choice.
4.2.2. Processing Unit (PU)
The PU is the radar processing unit. The PSR-500 Processing software is the
application running on each PU. This application aims at controlling each SU and
extracts all useful information (human intrusion vs. environment) from the radar
signal coming from the SU associated to the PU.
This software can be deployed on any PC with the following minimal characteristics:
o Processor double core Intel Core i7, cadenced at 1.3 GHz / 2.6 GHz
Turbo - 3 MB Cache
- Gigabit Ethernet
- 4Go RAM
PSR-500 Processing SW is also in charge of :
Page 15 / 125

PSR-500
System Installation Guide
- crossthe PSR-500 Installer SW
- broadcasting this information towards its clients.
Within the PSR-500 System, the three following software are clients listening to each
PU:
- PSR-500 Installer SW only during the installation phase.
- PSR-500 Server SW
- CCS SW module in charge of steering PTZ camera that may be deployed over
the site to protect
4.2.3. PSR-500 Installer
PSR-500 Installer SW is the application that supports and optimizes the entire
installation phase of a new PSR-500 radars park on site. This application enables to:
- Reference a background map of the operating zone
- Define alerting (with different alerting levels) and exclusion zones (detections in this
area are ignored public ways for instance) common to all radars of the site.
- update System configuration of PU deployed on site
- display stats and alerts sent by each deployed radar in order to verify and validate
their performances.
- Generate installation reports to support physical on site deployment
maintain the SU/PU Park deployed thanks to the PSR-500 server SW.
PSR-500 Installer shall support the PSR-500 system deployment but shall not be
used in operation phase.
4.2.4. PSR-500 Server
The PSR-500 Server SW is a basic system component that shall be deployed in any
PSR-500 System.
The PSR-500 Server SW retrieve a System configuration prepared through the PSR500 Installer and then operates and automatically maintains the deployed radars
park (thanks to dedicated network components).
Note: In case of a bug of the hosting OS (either physical or VM), the PSR-500 Server
SW re-start automatically on the previous system configuration and restore
automatically.
The PSR-500 Server SW offer the possibility to instantiate a web server that will
collect all data gather by the application and make them available for an external
client. The PSR-500 System can therefore be integrated into a third party platform.
Note: The PSR-500 Server SW does not allow creating a new system configuration
(SUs + PUs) but it allows modifying an existing installation such as modifying the
operation zones of the radars, or modifying the installation properties of some
deployed components.

System Installation Guide
The information collected and made available for an external client are (non
exhaustive list):
- PSR-500 System components installation configuration (location and installation
of the SUs, detection zones, exclusion zones, cameras) CONFIG message
- Status of the PSR-500 System components (SU, PU, cameras, maintenance
network components) STATUS message
- The entire set of alarms received from all deployed radars ALERTS message
- The camera tracking information CAM_TRACKING_ACTIVITY message
Note: these messages are in read-only mode.
CONFIG and STATUS messages are available for the WEB client through HTTP
request whereas ALERTS and CAM_TRACKING_ACTIVITY messages are
periodically pushed to the WEB client every 333ms (delay configurable using the
PSR-500 Installer SW) through a service-sent event.
The interface allows interaction with the système for what regards the camera
through the following services:
- Camera Tracking (or stop tracking) of a dedicated alerts
CAM_TRACKING_FOLLOW_ALERT message
- Camera inhibition, for example to allow an hypervisor to (manually) track the
camera instead of the PSR-500 system CAM_TRACKING_INHIBIT message
4.2.5. PSR-500 Viewer
The PSR-500 Viewer is a User Interface that:
- Enables visualization of intrusions in real time
- Provides systems status in real time
4.2.6. PSR-500 Investigator
The PSR-500 Investigator is a User interface that enables:
Visualization of all alerts detected by each radar (with detailed information for
each alert) over a given period of time defined through the register analyzer
window.
False alarms and visual confirmation analysis
Identification of masking zones
4.2.7. CCS Module (Camera Control Software) - Optional
In order to have an efficient visual confirmation, the CSS (Camera Control Software)
module may be used to automatically steer a PTZ camera to the alerts raised by a
radar.
The CCS module applies a fully configurable multi-target camera control philosophy.
One radar can control one or several cameras.
If selected, this module is used by PSR-500 Installer and PSR-500 Server SW in
order to install and operate the cameras.

- Step #6 : Generate the preliminary installation report
- Step #7 : Visit the site and validate/update the foreseen installation
- Step #8 : Add installation operators
*If CCS option is selected by user.
6.1.1. Step#1 : Import and reference a background map of the site
6.1.1.1.
Background map import
The PSR-500 Installer uses « static » background maps. The first step is to retrieve
the background map of the site on which the PSR-500 System will be deployed.
To import a static map in the application, two options are possible:
- Option 1 = A map at format *png, *gif, *jpeg, *png is already available the map
needs to be north oriented, i.e. north on the top of the map.
o Save
this
map
in
the
following
directory:
\PSR_Background_Maps.
Option 2 = No usable map of the site is already available. A solution consists in
using « Google Earth pro » that allows to extract high resolution maps.
o Download and install Google Earth Pro
o Start « Google Earth Pro »
o Fin the place where you want to deploy the PSR-500 system
Figure 7: Locate the zone with Google Earth
o Use the « range tool » to ensure that the current zoom factor is enough
to get at least 900m (PSR instrumented range) around the position
where you plan to deploy the PSR. Indeed, Google Earth pro will only
extract the map corresponding to the current zoom factor. (In case this
is not respected, a part of the alerts raised by some radars may not be
displayed on the map):

6.1.2. Step#2 : Define site surveillance
The application automatically passes to this step at the end of step#1.
Before moving on to this phase, the installation operator shall be able to answer the
following questions:
- How must be organized the surveillance of the site? Which zones must be
secured?
- Is there any highly sensitive location and what would be the trajectories of the
intrusions?
- Is there any area where the access is more critical than others? i.e. is there a
reason to define two levels of alerts (caution and warning) ?
- Is there any area that the radar(s) deployed will have to ignore? (any
o Have the radar to still monitor these zone but without raising any alert
setting is the reactivity of the system will be maximized in case of
entrance into a forbidden zone.
o Do we have to create exclusion zone(s) to avoid alerts on authorized
and known activities? The interest of such a setting is to limit false
alarms that may be raised at the edge of forest made of big branch
trees.
Note:
No zone = Complete radar processing is performed BUT no information is
forwarded toward the operator.
Exclusion zone : Radar processing is not performed

to basically create a zone a
Figure 35: Zone Creation
Instructions to follow to create a zone
Note: The PSR-500 Installer application allows creating maximum 50 zones made of
maximum 50 points each. One can create alerting zones (two levels are proposed)
and exclusion zones.
Note : as previously explained, the PSR-500 system will only alerts if intrusion are
located in an alerting zone. If the operator chose not to create any alerting zone, no
intrusion alerts will be raised by the deployed radars.
- Creation of a first zone. By default, a new zone is a detection zone with the
highest alerting level i.e.
By default, the « sequential » mode is
activated meaning that each time you click on the map, a new corner will be
added sequentially, whatever the position of the click. In this mode, you can
not add a corner between two existing corners.

Configuration parameters of a surveillance zone
Note on alerting levels: two alerting levels are proposed to allow the operator to tune
the site surveillance.
Note on sensibility: three levels are proposed. These levels will impact how each
radar monitoring this area will filter detections: in minimum amplitude, in minimum
radial velocity, and in minimum track age for alert
The highest sensibility, the lowest parameters. The advantage is an increase
of the detection probability, and the drawback is an increase of the false alarm
probability.
The lowest sensibility, the highest parameters. The drawback is a decrease of

In order to maximize the detection performances of a PSR-500 System radar, it is
necessary to understand some basics of Doppler radar technology.
Detection performances of a Doppler radar system are a trade-off (gain, loss) among
many parameters. We call it link budget. This « link budget » will define the contrast
of the target within its environment (environment noise and system noise).
The link budget inputs are:

Antenna radiation pattern
Target characteristics
o Position within the antenna radiation pattern
o Range
o Radial velocity (Doppler effect)
o Radar Cross Section (RCS)
The most important concepts to remind:
Range effect
o The closer a given target is from a radar, the stronger its detectability is
o The farer a given target is from the radar, the weaker its detectability is
Radiation pattern effect
o The closer a target is from the axis of the antenna of a radar, the
stronger its detectability is
o The farer a target is from the axis of the antenna (on the main axes, in
azimuth and in elevation, e.g. foot of the mast), the weaker its
detectability is
Radar Cross Section (RCS) effect
o The Radar Cross Section (RCS) is a target property that defines how
much energy a target will backscatter toward a RF source..
o RCS is independent from:
Target range
Target position within antenna radiation pattern
o RCS depends on:
Target shape
Target masking
o Therefore, human intrusion RCS will depend on:
o The stronger the RCS of a target is, the stronger its detectability is
Figure 45: RCS evolution depending on the target type
The following figures present the detection zone for a human intrusion (on the left)
and for a car (on the right). Once can see the range, radiation pattern and RCS
effects.
