Mar 25, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/054510
Inventors:
Corey Nicholas Bufi - Troy NY, US
Sahika Genc - Troy NY, US
Assignee:
GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANY - SCHENECTADY NY
International Classification:
H04B 1/10
US Classification:
367135
Abstract:
A system for generating a threat alert in an infrastructure component is provided. The system includes multiple acoustic sensors disposed in a protected zone around the infrastructure component, wherein each of the sensors is configured to detect a signal corresponding to an outcome that causes damage to the infrastructure component. The system also includes a processing circuitry coupled to each of the multiple acoustic sensors. The processing circuitry includes at least one analog-to-digital converter configured to digitize the signal. The processing circuitry also includes a digital signal processor configured to process the acoustic signal in a sequential routine. The sequential routine includes a noise filtering routine configured to filter background noise from the acoustic signal and generate a filtered signal.
