WIRELESS APPROACH FOR TSUNAMI & EARTHQUAKE ALERT SYSTEM
ABSTRACT
The term wireless covers a very vast field when the technology is concerned This very paper details about the communication between various sensors wirelessly The concept of wireless communication has been nicely implemented here for Tsunami-the very devastating danger that we had faced during Dec-2004.
This paper details about GSM based alert system. In addition to that this paper explains the use of accelerometer and BPR (bottom pressure recorder),to sense primary and secondary waves related to the seismic activities .When an earthquake occurs it releases energy in the form of waves, that radiates from the earthquake sources in all directions. These energy waves are sent to the network manager via satellite communication unit. Then network manager sends alert message to different ports.
This system can be configured with the available resources in India. Here only concepts are described. Detailed simulation, feasibility, study and experimentation are required to optimize the system and reduce the possibilities of false alarm.
