ARRAY NETWORK SOLUTION / 01

ARCNEW ARK / ARC-PERIMETER · ACOUSTIC ARRAY NETWORK

Safe perimeter first.
Microphone-array UAV detection & fusion networking.

New Ark microphone-array networking is built around passive acoustic sensing and safe-offset, external-perimeter deployment. It can be designed from a local perimeter at approximately 5 km through multi-site, multi-region coordination at a scale of several thousand kilometres. Network scale is not single-node detection range; actual capability must be confirmed by site conditions, node configuration, and project validation.

Where radar cannot see, where radar cannot go, in the 20–150 m low-altitude band, even for fibre-optic UAVs with no RF signature — New Ark's passive acoustics hear, locate and report before intrusion, while you keep sovereignty over deployment and evolution.

Prepared for project teams, this integrated-defense briefing covers system architecture, layered perimeters, integration conditions, and project-validation references. Choose the PDF for direct reading or the editable PPTX for internal review.

These files are for project communication and solution assessment. Configuration, performance, fit, and field arrangements remain subject to site authorisation, compliance review, and written project scope.

NETWORK SCALE / 02

Expand from array nodes, step by step, through site-boundary logic.

Every network layer first defines its safe boundary, node spacing, communications interface, and maintenance responsibility before sensing and coordination capabilities are configured. The scale references below are solution architecture references—not a single-device performance commitment.

01External perimeter of a core facility

Single-site perimeter

Array nodes and EO/IR confirmation create a safe-offset awareness layer around a single assessed site.

DEPLOYMENT SCHEMATIC / 03

Organise the network through safety buffers, array nodes, and confirmation interfaces.

The array network should begin outside the core hazardous zone. Acoustic nodes, EO/IR confirmation, authorised RF interfaces, and the project platform can form layered coordination once installation conditions, communications boundaries, and ownership are defined.

SYSTEM PATH / 04

Every node coordinates within a clear boundary and interface responsibility.

Passive acoustic arrays form the initial sensing layer; EO/IR supports identification and tracking confirmation; RF, radar, and the project platform connect through compliant interfaces. Authorised response capability is considered only after site authorisation, compliance review, and written project planning.

Sound sensing & localisation reference

Passive acoustic array

Acquires acoustic information from assessed external-perimeter nodes to form a continuous spatial-awareness reference.

02
Identification & tracking reference

EO/IR confirmation

Multi-sensor coordination

RF / radar interface

04
Tiered assessment & coordination

Command & project platform

Coordinates multi-node and multi-region information under defined data permissions, alert rules, and interface responsibility.

FIBER-OPTIC SCENARIO / 05

Add physical acoustic characteristics where RF features may be limited.

For scenarios such as fibre-optic controlled or low-altitude flight where conventional RF visibility may be reduced, acoustic sensing can provide a complementary information layer within a multi-sensor architecture. It does not replace site assessment; where project conditions allow, it provides a physical acoustic reference that can be reviewed.

FIRST DEFENCE REFERENCE / 05A

ARCFIXED RF MONITORING · FIRST OUTER-PERIMETER REFERENCE

A first perimeter-defence reference: fixed RF coverage at a 10 km radius and 360° omnidirectional coverage.

For authorised critical-infrastructure and high-security sites, fixed outer-perimeter nodes can form a 360° omnidirectional passive-detection and protocol-analysis complement outside the acoustic-array network. Once the safe boundary, spectrum permissions, and electromagnetic-compatibility review are complete, a project may further assess controlled precision-RF-response interfaces for remote-control and video-link UAV scenarios; actual fit, safeguards, and authority of use must be confirmed through field validation.

Any precision RF-response or interference assessment for remote-control and video-link UAV scenarios remains subject to applicable law, spectrum permissions, aviation and communications-protection requirements, on-site electromagnetic-compatibility testing, and written project authorisation. The design must treat protection of confirmed civilian communications, satellite navigation, Wi‑Fi, and public mobile services as a governing condition; conformance must be confirmed through site assessment and validation.
