A novel control of disaster protection (NCDP) for pilgrims by pan technology

This paper describes a prototype of WPAN technology for tracking pilgrims in the Holy areas like uttrakhand and Hajj (Pilgrimage). Modern rescue mechanisms commonly use Global Positioning System (GPS) technology for locating the persons, but due to wireless network problems and the weather condition doesn´t help them to locate the pilgrims. Our proposed method use novel method of ZigBee technology, this enables communication even in tower less areas. Existing Systems: The system [5] relies on a dedicated delay-tolerant wireless sensor network (WSN). Each pilgrim is given a mobile sensor unit which includes a GPS, a microcontroller, and antennas. A network of fixed units is installed in the Holy area for receiving and forwarding data. Periodically, each mobile unit sends its user identification (UID), latitude, longitude, and a time stamp. A central server maps the latitude and longitude information on a geographical information system (GIS). In the existing system rescue unit doesn´t have any awareness about the current location of pilgrims due to uneven weather condition leads to death of many pilgrims. The Proposed System: The main objective is tracking the pilgrims in the natural disaster occurred areas and giving the priority to human with heart beat signal. System consist of two architectural modules one is person side module control consists of heart beat sensor, multi-color LED, buzzer and another module is in surveillance side control. On rescue operation, module containing heart beat sensor is continuously measure the heart beats of the pilgrim then the output signal is given to signal conditioning unit in which the signal is conditioned. After that the signal is transmitted to surveillance side with the help of ZigBee protocols. The ZigBee transceiver in the surveillance side capture the number of count depends upon the person´s count in that disaster area. Multicolor LED and buzzers used in the person´s side indicates the signal only when the pilgrim- is alive to avoid the confusion between the living and nonliving condition of the pilgrims while on the rescue operation near by the person side to surveillance side. Communication protocol used in this method enables us to operate signals without the aid of satellites and helps us to rescue the pilgrims.
