4 Ultra Wideband Perimeter Surveillance Pole / User’s Manual
Figure 1 is a conceptual depiction of the USS. As suggested in the figure the USS can track
and independently classify multiple people and animals using its system of radars. A server
processes data from the radars and provides outputs to external users of the data. A network
connects the radars to each other and the server. The lower level components that make up
the poles, server, and network and the USS interfaces will be described in subsequent
paragraphs.
USS requires supporting infrastructure including power, a wired network, pole footings, and
a central server. The cost of this infrastructure suggests USS will be deployed around high
value assets or infrastructure typically found at many Government installations.

Figure 1 USS System Concept
As illustrated in Figure 2 USS consists of a staggered line of poles, a wired network and a
server. The server processes data from the poles and controls radar operation through the
network.
