Obiettivo False burglar alarms waste 3.3 billion p.a. and normally activated by motion detection. These are the direct costs to police and 3,200 SME crime prevention companies, with additional costs and distress to property owners (domestic and commercial), the 5 million European SME retailers are one of the most vulnerable groups to these false alarms. There is therefore an urgent need to improve the performance of these alarms to reduce this failure level. With price a main buying driver, performance improvement at the same cost is critical. This will directly increase crime prevention efficiency, impacting on over 2 million p.a. burglaries in Europe. To improve performance quality, it is necessary for improved, more reliable and cost effective sensors. Using 24 GHz instead of traditional 10 GHz frequency for sensors will increase performance reliability and be less sensitive to installation location error, through its more appropriate attenuation and propagation characteristics. However current 24 GHz sensors are too large and costly for this use.The EU wants to harmonise frequencies for short range sensor and security systems to 24 GHz band, releasing lower frequencies for longer range applications. Therefore, there is a need to develop a high performance low cost microwave motion detector operating at 24 GHz.There is a current and growing European market for 60 million multi-sensor alarms. This involves over 7,500 SMEs producing and distributing. There are also a further 27,500 SMEs involved in the installation and maintenance of crime prevention systems this will help them increase their sales. The proposed RTD is in response to the urgent industrial need to develop a solution for a universal microwave detector unit meeting the need of frequency harmonisation while helping to decrease the number of false alarms affecting crime prevention services (police and commercial) services) and the victims of crime.
