Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for generating an alarm and a system for monitoring an area, in particular a spatially extended area.
  • Known systems for monitoring an area consist of a multiplicity of towers which are arranged at a certain distance from one another and on which a person is placed to monitor this area. The horizon is searched with the eyes and checked for possible forest fires. In the event of a fire, an alarm center is informed about an existing communication network and other subsequent functions, such as. B. the request for a fire truck are initiated.
  • known systems for monitoring an area are very complex and expensive, since one person must be employed per tower and the towers must not be set up too far apart.
  • systems for monitoring an area that do not relate to forest fire testing, but e.g. B. for flood detection, for cyclone prediction to determine environmental pollution or for earthquake detection, there are currently either no systems for detection or prediction, or very complex systems such as earthquake detection, a seismographic system, but which is not always ready for use .
  • the invention has for its object to provide a device and a system for generating an alarm, which can be implemented inexpensively, with a low probability of false alarm.
  • the device for generating an alarm operates fully automatically and the system for monitoring an area requires a considerably reduced number of people to monitor a large area. It is also advantageous that the likelihood of a false alarm is considerably reduced and, at the same time, a very quick and rapid generation of an alarm is ensured, which then ensure immediate repair of the damage and accordingly ensures damage limitation.
  • the monitoring center can be used to control the at least one sensor on the device for generating an alarm signal. This allows a further review of the Alarm probability can be guaranteed by manually from the monitoring center, for. B. a surveillance camera in the device for generating an alarm can be directed to the position of the likely alarm trigger point and thus the alarm can be verified.
  • Fig. 2 Schematic representation of a system for monitoring an area.
  • a device for generating an alarm consists of at least one sensor C1, C2 for generating at least one input signal (SI, S2).
  • the at least one sensor can be, for example, a video camera for taking pictures. This is used to pick up clouds of smoke or smoke columns. Another option is to use an infrared camera as a sensor. This is used to record heat radiation and thus detects heat sources that indicate a fire.
  • the two aforementioned cameras can be in a one-dimensional or in a multi-dimensional, e.g. B. the two-dimensional embodiment.
  • a one-dimensional camera takes a 360 ° picture of the surroundings when it is pivoted about its own axis.
  • the senor can be a laser plus receiver, which is used for the spectroscopic determination of the combustion products by measuring the backscattering components, e.g. B. particle size of the angle and wavelength is used.
  • spectroscopic determination of the combustion products by measuring the damping component can be carried out by means of such a laser and an assigned receiver.
  • a further embodiment of a sensor which is not described in further detail, is the use of a semiconductor that records physical / chemical determinations of changes in concentration in the air and thus suggests combustion products.
  • Other sensors can be those that detect special polluting substances or those that measure radioactive radiation.
  • An input signal SI, S2 generated by the at least one sensor C1, C2 is sent to at least one neural network NN1, NN2 for detecting an event and for determining at least one first output signal AI, A2 from the at least one generated input signal SI, S2 by means of pattern recognition.
  • the at least one neural network NN1, NN2 is used to prepare the sensor data by classifying them by generating parameters relevant to decision-making. Furthermore, a pattern recognition by comparison with learned knowledge, e.g. B. carried out by means of artificial neural networks.
  • the at least one first output signals AI, A2 determined in this way are sent to a first unit FL1 for generating an alarm.
  • the alarm is formed as an alarm signal B from the at least one first output signal AI, A2 in the first unit FL1.
  • This first unit can be, for example, rule-based fuzzy logic, which leads to a false alarm reduction based on the rules used.
  • this unit FL1 By means of this unit FL1, an overall decision is made and an alarm signal B and, depending on it, a possible measure for the occurrence of the alarm.
  • a multi-sensor system In an embodiment in which a plurality of sensors and correspondingly a plurality of neural networks are attached, such a system is referred to as a multi-sensor system, as is also used below. This is indicated in FIG. 1 in such a way that this multi-sensor system is indicated as a whole by broken lines.
  • a multi-sensor system can be used, for example, for forest fire detection, with a video camera for Smoke detection and an infrared camera for the detection of thermal radiation is attached.
  • a further sensor R a so-called smoke sensor, is attached, which records a signal A3 and also outputs it to the first unit FL1.
  • the multi-sensor system composed in this way merely represents a possible system and can be expanded at any time by a further sensor which corresponds to what has been described above, or one of the sensors mentioned can be replaced by another.
  • the use of some sensors requires a second tower, so that, for example, a transmitter is attached to a first tower and a receiver to a second tower.
  • the alarm signal B is sent to a second unit FL2 for the further reduction of a false alarm probability of the alarm signal B.
  • the false alarm probability is reduced in such a way that further input signals E1, E2, E3, E4 are given to this unit and a false alarm probability is reduced in this unit by means of a linking rule.
  • the additionally introduced input signals E1 to E4 are subject to different evaluation factors depending on the influence of the input variable. As a possibility are shown here that z. B. the first input signal El indicating the current time, the second input signal E2 indicating the date, the third input signal E3 indicating the current outside temperature and a fourth input signal E4 indicating, for example, air and / or soil moisture. Further or different input signals can be imagined and added at any time.
  • the second unit FL2 for reducing the probability of false alarms is also fuzzy logic, for example. Taking the influencing variables E1 to E4 into account, this forms an overall decision C from the multisensor information. This overall decision C includes either sending an alarm, yes or no.
  • a network connection N is additionally provided on the device, which is used to transmit the false alarm signal C via a communication network.
  • a communication network it should be imagined that, for example, a directional radio link is set up, or that a GSM network or DECT network or a conventional ISDN network or an analog telephone network is used.
  • satellites can be used, via which the communication then takes place.
  • a system for monitoring an area is composed of at least one device for generating an alarm signal I, as was explained in more detail with patent claim 1.
  • a device with its at least one sensor C1, C2 with its at least one neural network NN1, NN2 with its first unit FL1 and with its second unit FL2 are distributed in the area to be monitored.
  • three such devices I are specified, which are located on a tower in a forest. From these devices I, a false alarm signal C is sent to a monitoring center Z by means of a communication network for transmitting the alarm signal. The received false alarm reduced alarm signals C of the individual devices I are reported in the monitoring center Z.
  • the alarm can be checked manually, which are provided, for example, in the monitoring center Z as means RM, which enable control of the at least one sensor C1, C2 in the device for generating an alarm signal.
  • Such means can be used, for example, to move the sensors in the device I to a special point and, by using a zoom, to take a closer look at an avoidable source of fire.
  • the coordinate determination of the reported alarm also takes place in order to then initiate a further catalog of measures.
  • Such a catalog of measures can be, for example, ordering the fire brigade, initiating rescue measures or any other form.
  • a finite number of devices for generating an alarm signal I can be assigned to each monitoring center Z.
  • a monitoring center Z can also operate fully automatically and carry out a further verification and automatically forward an alarm, for example to a further center, such as. B. the fire brigade.
  • further input signals E6 can be used to expand the catalog of measures. For example, a current wind speed can be measured in the vicinity of the monitoring center Z and thus a further component can be assigned to the alarm, namely, for example, the assumed direction of propagation of the fire.
  • Such an input variable E6 can also be used to read in a possible land use plan, which then immediately shows which endangered or protected areas are located in the immediate vicinity of the source of the fire.
  • a first parameter is the duration of the drought
  • a second parameter is the current air humidity
  • a third parameter is the wind speed.
  • a rule for such fuzzy logic may look as follows. If the first parameter is the duration of the drought> than three days and a humidity ⁇ 40% and a wind speed is greater than 30 km / h, then the likelihood of forest fire is high. In an opposite case, when the duration of the drought is ⁇ than one day and the humidity> is 60% and the wind speed is> 30 km / h, the risk of forest fires is low.
