The Mobile Surveillance System (MSS) is a scalable system comprising mobile, solar-powered camera sites with radio and telemetry links to trailer-mounted bases. Typical applications are for security of mine sites and ad hoc deployment for crowd control.
Currently deployed over an area of operations exceeding 70 km square and in some cases with links exceeding 100 km, the MSS is protected and capable of deployment in extreme weather conditions of wind, sea mist, temperature and with an associated highly corrosive atmosphere, which would attack and corrode deployed devices if poorly conceived.
The radio links are based on DVT-B digital TV standards for high-quality video transmission and utilise COFDM digital technology to allow the cameras to be repositioned at will without suffering signal degradation common in both opencast and underground operations.
The use of digital transmission opens up new opportunities for the operator to use the radio backbone to transmit GPS location data for vehicles within the area back to the control room. There is also the ability to mount cameras on vehicles and transmit this video back to the control room also.
