3.2.1.1 Bi-Static With Spatial Diversity

In this setup, two different sensors are physically separated and the sensing zone is defined by the overlap of their respective fields of view. The main benefit is minimization of dependent fault injectors (DFI), while the main drawback is the highest cost and installation complexity.
