Abstract
The Wireless Alarm Transmission of Container Handling (WATCH) System, which was described in a previous INMM paper, was initially developed for domestic security use, within vaults or storage areas containing many discrete items. The system is composed of remote transmitters and a central receiver. With some modifications the WATCH System could be used in a variety of International Safeguards applications. This paper describes the potential applications and what changes would be required, including enclosure of the transmitters within a tamper resistant container, one-way authentication of the transmitted messages, and improved data presentation.
