Abstract
The glass break detector uses sampling techniques to a low band and a high band portion of a signal from a transient event to assess whether the bands are random. In addition, an assessment of the envelope shape of the signal is made to confirm the signal is consistent with a rapid rise followed by a sloped decay typical of transient events. It has been found that dividing of the signal into high and low bands and analyzing each portion over a short front end portion of a transient event is effective in distinguishing glass break events from other common events.
