We doen dit door de eigenschappen van de gebruikte optische glasvezels te monitoren en het door een glasvezel-lus omsloten gebied te meten via het subtiele effect dat de draaiing van de aarde heeft op het licht dat door de lus reist.",

In the same way we also check the area enclosed by a large fibre loop by measuring the subtle effect of the earth’s rotation on the light travelling in the loop.",

We do this by monitoring the properties of the optical fibers used and by authenticating nodes in the network using hardware authentication. We are investigating whether the effect of the Earth's rotation on an area enclosed by a fiber loop can also be used to secure the network.",

We doen dit door de eigenschappen van de gebruikte optische glasvezels te monitoren en door het authenticeren van knooppunten in het netwerk met hulp van hardware authenticatie. We onderzoeken of het effect van de draaiing van de aarde op door een glasvezel-lus omsloten gebied ook gebruikt kan worden om het netwerk te beveilingen."
