Whether or not the CW radar is utilized for through-the-wall detection, additional one or more sensors are used with the CW radar to confirm the motion detection result or to in fact turn on the CW radar once motion or the physical presence of an individual has been sensed, thereby to provide confirmation of a less-reliable sensor with the use of the more reliable CW radar. Thus, the addition of other sensors provides lower power consumption, lower false alarm rates and better discrimination and classification of moving objects.

A system for detecting intrusion across a surface, comprising a plurality of light sources projecting an array of illuminating beams along different optical paths in the surface and a detector array system directed such that it detects along a plurality of fields of view in the surface, illumination reflected from the illuminating beams. A signal processing system detects changes along the array of fields of view, in the reflected illumination level detected by the detector system. An increase greater than a predefined level in the reflected illumination level from any field of view provides an indication of an intrusion across the surveilled surface along that field of view, at the crossing point of the direction of that field of view with the optical path whose illuminating beam generated the increase in reflected illumination from that field of view.

An automatic technique for generating signatures for malicious network traffic performs a cluster analysis of known malicious traffic to create a signature in the form of a state machine. The cluster analysis may operate on semantically tagged data collected by connection or session and normalized to eliminate protocol specific features. The signature extractor may generalize the finite-state machine signatures to match network traffic not previously observed.

A sensor and method for detecting biological and chemical agents comprising metal interdigitized electrodes coated with hybrid polymer-based conducting film and an instrument for applying electrical voltage to the electrodes and registering the change in voltage. The hybrid film also comprises indicator biomolecules encapsulated within the film or attached to it. When these indicator biomolecules come in a contact with a biological and chemical agent, morphological changes occur in the film and electrical current flowing through the electrodes is modulated. The change in current indicates the presence of a biological and chemical agent and is registered.

The present invention relates to a radar detector and a radar detecting method for WLAN systems according to 802.11 wireless communication standards, and particularly concerns the radar detection for 802.1 l h dynamic frequency selection mechanism. The essence of the innovation consists in projecting the received phase vector on the signal subspace orthogonal to the expected radar pulse subspace and taking the norm of the resulting vector. The closer the norm is to zero, the more likely the received signal is to be a radar pulse. The invention is able to detect both, sinusoidal radar signals and chirp-like radar signals.
