Long-term Perimeter Protection System Monitoring Using State of a Polarization Analyzer

Abstract

The paper proposes the deployment of a perimeter and data protection system with long-term data storage in an InfluxDB time-series database enhanced by a graphical interface based on a Grafana dashboard. The perimeter is protected using a fiber optic cable, and the transmitted light is analyzed by a state of polarization analyzer detecting mechanical vibrations. Using a simple spectrum comparison method and a threshold, it can detect a perimeter breach and generate an alert.
