Abstract
A Precinct Protection System includes a laser source of light which is applied at the input to a bundle of light transmissive fibers. The fibers are gathered in a cable in loops of varying lengths so that the fibers enter and exit the cable at one and the same end. The cable is placed along a line adjoining or surrounding the precincts to be protected. An intruder traversing the line or protected perimeter will disturb one or more of the fiber optic loops of the cable. The circumstance and locality of the disturbance produced by the intruder are indicated on an analog or digital display.
