Concept of OperationsPrimary Effort
PipelineProblem:Too vast an area for limited personnel
resources (mobile guards)Hostile actions:
• Destruction (explosives)• Damage to pumps and transformers• Stripping of copper power lines (for
pumps)
Operational Need:Reliable automated surveillance to detect
movement in security zone
FY04 Experiment:Sense movement of personnel and/or
vehicles toward the pipelineTrack the movement and the stop/start of
movement
Damage in Iraq

IED
Similar Long, Linear, Static Structures
Surveillance of Supply Routes: Detect potential ambush sites:
• Personnel w/shoulder fired weapons (e.g., RPGs)• IEDs
FY04 Experiment: Sense movement of
personnel/vehicles toward supply route, and then:
They remain near a point They remain for a while and then leave
Sense suspicious movement on the road

Border Surveillance:
Detect illegal border crossings:
• U.S. Customs
• Military operations in Iraq
FY04 Experiment:
Detect movement of personnel/vehicles across area adjacent to a border

• Classification TBD
• XSM Node Lifetime TBD
• Relay Node Lifetime TBD
• Network Deployment time <1 hour
• Network Uninstallation time < 1 hour
• Cost Per node Per unit area covered

Experiment Site Characteristics
• Relatively flat, open area• Easy for observers to see large section of experiment site• No forests• No large physical obstructions to line-of-site comms• Relatively good weather (little rain, light winds, etc.)
13
Final Demo Experiment Sites
Candidate Sites Naval Air Weapons Facility,
China Lake150 miles NE of Los Angeles Encompasses 1.1 million acres of land in California's upper Mojave Desert, ranging in altitude from 2,100 to 8,900 feet
Varies from flat dry lake beds to rugged piñon pine covered mountains.
Weather should be consistent Summer will be hot

The area in the red ellipse is the one for the test range. It is approximately 7500’ x 2500’.
