Iot based Underground Coalmine Safety System

Abstract

Safety of a person is primary concern in any industry especially in underground coal mining industry. Underground communication is necessary to monitor underground environmental and health parameter and take necessary actions accordingly to avoid any types of hazard. The application designs a warning system for coalmine safety based on IOT. The underground system determines environment and health condition of workers. This system observes the environmental parameters such as gas and vibrations and the health parameters such as heart rate, temperature. The collected information is send to the processor to save them and for remote users to inquire.

Emergency Management System for Coal Mine Safety Based on IoT Technology

“…In network layer research, Chen and Wang [18] proposed an integrated mine wireless communication and personnel location management system design scheme combining WIFI and RFID (radio frequency identification) for commonly used mine communication system and personnel location system, which all adopt independent network distribution method and have problem of duplicated network distribution. In application layer research, the authors of [19] designed a set of remote online real-time monitoring and fault diagnosis platform for mine electromechanical equipment based on IoT technology, so that it can play an important role in ensuring enterprise safety production [21][22][23][24][25][26].…”

Development of LoRa Communication System for Effective Transmission of Data from Underground Coal Mines

“…These technologies can be used in large-scale IoT to effectively transmit signals over a wider area. Therefore, wireless monitoring is becoming a sought-after technology among others used in the underground mining industry [33].…”
