| dc.description.abstract | This report describes electronic sensors and sensor systems for use in force protection. Two types of systems are treated:
1) perimeter surveillance systems for protection of military camps and other permanent or semi-permanent installations,
and 2) unattended ground sensors for protection of forces in temporary positions. The capabilities of such systems based
on mechanical, electromagnetic and electro-optical sensors are discussed. Cost estimates are presented and issues relating
to management, maintenance and logistics are described. Furthermore, the report gives a brief description of future
trends in electronic surveillance for force protection. | en_GB |
