2.3.3
Detection Alarm and Reporting Capacity
**************************************************************************
NOTE: Select system capacity parameters based on
capacity should be expressed as a binary number.
Include a 25 percent expansion factor to accommodate
changes in design caused by reconfiguration of
equipment within interior spaces or renovation.
**************************************************************************
The IDS shall have the capacity to collect, communicate, and display up to
[12] [32] [256] [_____] sensor zone alarms [and to enable control of [one]
[two] [_____] response devices in each of the sensor zones]. If the sensor
zone is a combination of multiple alarm sources, the system shall maintain
the capability to identify individual sensors in an alarm state. A single
alarm shall be annunciated within one second average, 2 seconds maximum,
after sensor transducer or other detection device activation [except that
alarms transmitted by radio frequency signaling shall communicate in
approximately 2 seconds].
2.3.4
**************************************************************************
NOTE: For U.S. Navy facilities, minimum Ps is 0.9.
Delete this paragraph for simple, non-high security
systems. Use this paragraph when specific DoD and
USN directives require a high level of performance,
detection." See NAVFAC DM-13.02 for discussion of
"probability of detection."
**************************************************************************
Success shall be predicated on the proposed system architecture. Overall
system probability of success shall be [0.90] [0.95] [0.99] [_____] minimum.
2.3.4.1
Combinational Processing
The required system probability of success at the 90 [_____] percent
confidence level is based on the standard Chi-square distribution and is
calculated from the formula Ps = Pd x Pc x Pa x Pp where:
Ps =
Probability of system success.
Pd =
Probability of detection for an individual sensor or sensor
combination when more than one sensor is used.
Pc =
Probability of correctly transmitting sensor data. The
performance measure will account for remote processing and
transmission error.
Pa =
Probability of correctly annunciating alarm data and of
providing the correct response at the operator interface,
including accounting for errors introduced by central processing
Pp =
Probability of providing operating power of suitable quality.
