[0042] In order to more conveniently monitor whether there are people entering the enclosed area, a more advanced method is to set up an electronic fence. If an intruder touches the electronic fence, an alarm will be sent to the staff so that they can rush to the scene in time to expel the intruder.

[0043] However, for a site with a large enclosed area, due to the large peripheral range of the site, there may be a large number of people around the electronic fence, among which there may be intruders with the intention of intrusion.
