Abstract

In many security monitoring contexts, the performance or efficiency of surveillance sensors/networks based on a single sensor type may be limited by environmental conditions, like illumination change. It is well known that different modes of sensors can be complementary, compensating for failures or limitations of individual sensor types. From a location analysis and modeling perspective, a challenge is how to locate different modes of sensors to support security monitoring. A coverage-based optimization model is proposed as a way to simultaneously site k different sensor types. This model considers common coverage among different sensor types as well as overlapping coverage for individual sensor types. The developed model is used to site sensors in an urban area. Computational results show that common and overlapping coverage can be modeled simultaneously, and a rich set of solutions exists reflecting the tradeoff between common and overlapping coverage.

안전과 보안이 현대사회의 중요한 관심사로 등장하고 있고 그 대상 영역이 실내 공간으로 넘어서 도시로 확대되고 있다. 도심지역에 수 많은 감시 센서들이 설치 운영되고 있다. 많은 보안 모니터링 맥락에서 감시 센서/네트워크의 수행능력 혹은 효율성은 조명의 변화와 같은 환경 조건에 제약을 받는다. 서로 보완적인 상이한 유형의 센서를 설치함으로써 개별 유형의 센서의 고장 혹은 한계를 극복할 수 있다는 것은 익히 잘 알려진 사실이다. 입지 분석과 모델링의 관점에서 관심사는 어떻게 보완적인 상이한 유형의 센서들의 적절한 입지를 결정하여 보안기능을 강화할 수 있느냐 이다. 이 연구는 k 개의 상이한 유형의 감시 센서의 위치를 결정하는 커버리지 기반의 최적화 모델을 제시한다. 이 모델은 상이한 유형의 센서 사이의 공통 커버리지와 동일 유형의 센서 사이의 중복 커버지리를 동시에 고려한다. 개발된 모델은 도심 지역에 센서를 위치시키는데 적용된다. 연구 결과는 공통 및 중복 커버리지가 동시에 모델링 될 수 있으며, 두 유형의 커버지리 사이의 tradeoff를 보여주는 많은 해들이 있음을 보여준다.
