BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

[0015] Figure 1 The flowchart of the seismic warning method of an embodiment of the present application is shown in the figure. Figure 2 The schematic diagram of the seismic warning system of another embodiment of the present application is shown in the figure. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0016] To make the objectives, technical schemes, and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical schemes in the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0017] The present application provides a seismic warning method, which is executed on a seismic warning intelligent terminal, as shown in the figure. Figure 1 The method comprises the following steps: acquiring seismic time, seismic intensity, epicenter latitude and longitude, and local latitude and longitude, and converting the epicenter latitude and longitude into a first coordinate in a rectangular coordinate system and converting the local latitude and longitude into a second coordinate in the rectangular coordinate system; In some embodiments, the seismic time, seismic intensity, epicenter latitude and longitude, and local latitude and longitude are obtained from a local seismic system, and in order to facilitate subsequent calculation, the epicenter latitude and longitude and the local latitude and longitude need to be converted into a first coordinate and a second coordinate in a rectangular coordinate system.

[0018] According to the first coordinate and the second coordinate, the propagation distance between the local latitude and longitude and the epicenter latitude and longitude is calculated; In some embodiments, the first coordinate and the second coordinate in the rectangular coordinate system can be used to calculate the propagation distance by a distance calculation formula. Since the calculation of the earthquake time and the attenuation of the earthquake intensity both depend on the propagation distance during the propagation of the earthquake wave, the propagation distance needs to be calculated first in this step.

[0019] According to the earthquake intensity and the propagation distance, the local earthquake intensity is calculated. In some embodiments, the attenuation of the earthquake intensity is calculated by the earthquake intensity and the propagation distance, and thus the local earthquake intensity is calculated.

[0020] According to the earthquake time and the propagation distance, the local earthquake countdown is calculated. In some embodiments, the time of the earthquake wave propagating to the local place is calculated by the earthquake time and the propagation distance, and thus the local earthquake countdown is obtained.

[0021] According to the local earthquake intensity and the local earthquake countdown, the earthquake warning broadcast is performed.

[0022] In some embodiments, the local earthquake intensity and the local earthquake countdown are the key information during the earthquake warning, and thus the local earthquake intensity and the local earthquake countdown can be converted into broadcast data to perform the earthquake warning broadcast.

[0023] In the technical solution provided in the embodiments of the present application, the intelligent terminal acquires the information such as the earthquake time, the earthquake intensity, the epicenter latitude and longitude, and the local latitude and longitude, and after receiving the foregoing information, the local earthquake intensity and the local earthquake countdown are calculated automatically in real time, and the earthquake warning broadcast can be performed automatically according to the local earthquake intensity and the local earthquake countdown, so that the manual coordination and scheduling process is omitted, the automatic broadcast of the earthquake warning broadcast is realized, and the broadcast efficiency of the earthquake warning broadcast is effectively improved.

[0024] As an optional implementation, the calculation of the local earthquake intensity according to the earthquake intensity and the propagation distance comprises: A first intermediate value is determined according to the quotient of the propagation distance and the saturation factor; The first intermediate value is summed with a fixed constant to obtain a second intermediate value; A logarithmic operation is performed on the second intermediate value with 10 as the base number, and the result of the logarithmic operation is weighted according to an attenuation coefficient to obtain an intensity attenuation value; The local earthquake intensity is determined by subtracting the intensity attenuation value from the earthquake intensity.

[0025] In some embodiments, the local earthquake intensity can be calculated according to the following formula:

[0026] wherein, I is local seismic intensity, is the seismic intensity at the epicenter, 4 is the attenuation coefficient, d is the propagation distance, 10 is the saturation constant, and therefore, 1 is a fixed constant.

[0027] As an optional implementation, the calculating the local seismic countdown according to the earthquake time and the propagation distance comprises: determining the total propagation time by using the quotient of the propagation distance and the seismic wave propagation speed; determining the propagated time according to the difference between the current time and the earthquake time; determining the local seismic countdown by using the difference between the total propagation time and the propagated time.

[0028] In some embodiments, the calculation of the local seismic countdown can be performed according to the following formula:

[0029] wherein, t is the local seismic countdown, d is the propagation distance, v is the seismic wave propagation speed, is the propagated time.

[0030] As an optional implementation, the performing the earthquake warning broadcast according to the local seismic intensity and the local seismic countdown comprises: converting the local seismic intensity and the local seismic countdown into voice data required by the earthquake warning broadcast and playing.

[0031] In some embodiments, after receiving the earthquake information, the intelligent terminal calculates the local seismic countdown and the local seismic intensity, and then converts the content of the local seismic countdown and the local seismic intensity into text-to-speech, and reminds according to the local seismic countdown.

[0032] As an optional implementation, the performing the earthquake warning broadcast according to the local seismic intensity and the local seismic countdown comprises: when the local seismic countdown is not greater than a preset threshold, issuing an emergency alarm.

[0033] In some embodiments, the preset threshold may, for example, be 10 seconds, 5 seconds, or 20 seconds, etc. As some preferred implementations, the preset threshold can be set according to the local seismic intensity, for example, the higher the local seismic intensity, the longer the preset threshold. Since the local seismic countdown reaching the preset threshold indicates that the local earthquake is about to occur, it is necessary to remind in a more direct and eye-catching way, that is, to issue an emergency alarm.

[0034] As an optional implementation, converting the epicenter latitude and longitude to a first coordinate system in a rectangular coordinate system, and converting the local latitude and longitude to a second coordinate system in a rectangular coordinate system includes: A three-axis rectangular coordinate system is constructed with the Earth's center as the origin. Based on the Earth's radius and the longitude and latitude of the epicenter, the first coordinate of the epicenter's longitude and latitude in the three-axis rectangular coordinate system is determined. A three-axis rectangular coordinate system is constructed with the Earth's center as the origin. Based on the Earth's radius and the local latitude and longitude, the second coordinate of the local latitude and longitude in the three-axis rectangular coordinate system is determined.

[0035] In some embodiments, given the latitude and longitude, the coordinates in the rectangular coordinate system can be calculated using the following formula:

[0036]

[0037]

[0038] Where θ represents latitude, φ represents longitude, x, y, and z are the three-dimensional coordinates in a rectangular coordinate system, and R is the Earth's radius, which can be, for example, 6378 kilometers. When calculating the first and second coordinates, the epicenter's latitude and longitude and the local latitude and longitude can be substituted into the aforementioned formula for calculation.

[0039] As an optional implementation, calculating the propagation distance between the local latitude and longitude and the epicenter latitude and longitude based on the first coordinate and the second coordinate includes: Based on the first and second coordinates, the straight-line distance between the local latitude and longitude and the epicenter latitude and longitude is calculated using the two-point straight-line distance formula, and the straight-line distance is used as the propagation distance.

[0040] In some embodiments, since seismic waves typically spread outward in a spherical pattern during propagation, the propagation distance from the epicenter to the local area should be calculated linearly. The propagation distance can be calculated, for example, using the following formula:

[0041] Where d is the propagation distance, The first coordinate of the epicenter. This is the second local coordinate.

[0042] This invention also provides an earthquake early warning system, such as... Figure 2 As shown, it includes: A front-end system, which is communicatively connected to the local earthquake system, is used to acquire earthquake information from the local earthquake system in real time. In some embodiments, the front-end system accesses the local seismic system, acquires seismic information of the local seismic system, and pushes to the broadcast system.

[0043] The broadcast system is in communication connection with the front-end system, acquires seismic information from the front-end system in real time, and broadcasts; In some embodiments, the broadcast system is used to send seismic information to multiple intelligent terminals. After the broadcast system acquires seismic information from the front-end system, the broadcast system immediately sends the seismic information to the multiple intelligent terminals, without manual coordination and scheduling. After the intelligent terminals receive the seismic information, the intelligent terminals perform local seismic intensity and local seismic countdown calculation by themselves.

[0044] Multiple intelligent terminals, multiple intelligent terminals are in communication connection with the broadcast system, and multiple intelligent terminals are used to receive seismic information broadcasted by the broadcast system and execute the method of any one of the preceding embodiments.

[0045] In some embodiments, the intelligent terminals are distributed in users' homes or public places. After receiving the seismic information sent by the broadcast system, the intelligent terminals perform local seismic intensity and local seismic countdown calculation by themselves.

[0046] As an optional implementation, the front-end system and the local seismic system maintain connection by using heartbeat signals. The broadcast system and the multiple intelligent terminals maintain connection by using MQTT service.

[0047] In some embodiments, when the front-end system is started, the front-end system initializes the adaptation of the local seismic system, maintains connection by heartbeat, acquires real-time seismic information generated by the seismic system, and forms a message according to the tar protocol standard and pushes to the broadcast system. When the broadcast system server is started, the broadcast system server initializes the MQTT service, which is used for heartbeat connection and channel maintenance between the intelligent terminal and the broadcast system, and seismic message distribution. When the broadcast system server is started, the broadcast system server initializes the detection of the front-end system service and the heartbeat connection, maintains the heartbeat connection by using the emergency broadcast system tar protocol, and lays a foundation for subsequent data transmission. After the intelligent terminal is started, the intelligent terminal automatically detects the MQTT service and the heartbeat connection, and ensures the normal work. This is to ensure that the seismic communication interface of the equipment can be normally used, and to lay a foundation for subsequent data transmission. In some preferred embodiments, the broadcast system and the intelligent terminal broadcast seismic information based on the MQTT-based publish / subscribe transmission protocol. The data format of the MQTT service for the intelligent terminal publishing (PUBLISH message type) is JSON.

[0048] As an optional implementation, the communication data between the front-end system and the broadcast system and the communication data between the broadcast system and the intelligent terminal are all encrypted, the intelligent terminal decrypts and checks the received seismic information, and when the intelligent terminal determines that the data is incorrect or lost, the received seismic information is discarded.

[0049] In some embodiments, the data corresponding to the seismic information needs to be encrypted when transmitted, and when the intelligent terminal receives the data corresponding to the seismic information, the data needs to be decrypted first for checking to ensure the integrity and accuracy of the data. If the data is found to be incorrect or lost, no processing is performed. The data checking processing can ensure the accuracy of the data and ensure that the data received by the intelligent terminal is accurate.

[0050] The above merely describes specific embodiments of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto, any person skilled in the art can easily think of changes or replacements within the technical range disclosed by the present application, which should be covered within the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application should be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
