N2 - This paper describes the concept of sensor over fibres (SoF), consisting of many sensor heads connected by fibre networks. SoF transfer waveforms from the sensor heads and performs joint signal processing to achieve high-resolution and agile imaging, while wireless sensor networks are digital networks to collect measured data at small sensors. SoF can compile information from sensor heads coherently at central signal processing units. We will also show applications of SoF technologies, such as high resolution millimetre-wave radar for airport runway surveillance.
