Abstract: There is provided a device in which surroundings of a building can be monitored using a sensor; when detecting an intruder, an object can be detected even in the case of bad weather; and a predetermined area can be monitored using as few sensors as possible. The device includes a security system which emits a radio wave from a building to a predetermined area outside the building to detect an object, and on the basis of output of the object detecting unit, a judgment is made as to whether or not the object will intrude into the predetermined area.

Abstract: In a position detecting system using a radar which transmits/receives a microwave or a millimeterwave, the area to be monitored is surrounded by a plurality of reflectors, and the coordinate values of the reflectors and a detected object are calculated based on the signals reflected from the reflectors and the detected object and then compared. When the coordinate value of the detected object is inside the area to be monitored, it is determined that the detected object is an intruding person or the like and an alarm is given. When the coordinate value of the detected object is outside the area to be monitored, it is determined that the detected object is not an intruding person or the like and no alarm is given. Calibration and self-diagnosis of the radar are periodically performed using at least one of the reflectors, thereby maintaining optimal performance of the radar.

Abstract: In a position detecting system used to monitor a suspicious person and to give an alarm by using a radar which transmits/receives a microwave or a millimeterwave, the shape of a detectable area of the radar and that of the area to be monitored are not always equal to each other, and thus, an alarm may be erroneously given in response to the object outside the area to be monitored. For its solution, the area to be monitored is surrounded by a plurality of reflectors, and the coordinate values of the reflectors and the detecting object are calculated based on the signals reflected from the reflectors and the detecting object and then compared. When the coordinate value of the detecting object is inside the area to be monitored, it is determined that the detecting object is an intruding person or the like and an alarm is given.
