This includes wreckage communication devices (EHCs) that provide remote communication. State of the Art Today, due to the rapid increase in population in city centers, the existing spaces in city centers are becoming increasingly crowded. It is known that 90% of buildings consist of reinforced concrete structures. (Earthquake report published in 1998) 15 million medium-rise (3-8 story) buildings that are estimated to have been built before the regulation came into effect. They are mostly considered to be the product of poor engineering. This term "poor engineering" refers to bad 20 Due to poor materials, poor design, and poor construction, earthquake safety is often inadequate. This indicates that the worst behavior during the earthquake occurred in the structures located in this segment, and therefore... It is known that the most severe damage and the greatest loss of life and property occur in these structures. The extent of the damage that may occur after an earthquake should be assessed quickly, and initial response should be carried out immediately. Rapid deployment of rescue teams is needed. Assistance from local and central governments is required. 25 Making this call would be the first step that could save many lives. Within minutes of a devastating earthquake, the Disaster Management and Decision Support System (AYDES) In a situation where structures deemed to have collapsed are marked on Geographic Information Systems, a decision is made. Transmitter mechanisms will enable the creation of a rapid and accurate intervention plan and the organization of rescue operations. This will be possible. Within the borders of Türkiye, services related to disasters, emergencies and civil defense will be available for 30 days. All of these are managed by the Disaster and Emergency Management Presidency (AFAD). Therefore, incidents occurring throughout the country... AFAD organizes all rescue operations for the earthquakes that occur. 2 AYDES, used by [the relevant authority], is built on Geographic Information Systems and is used in all disaster and emergency situations. a web-based system capable of effectively managing resources and equipped with decision support mechanisms It is an application. The recent earthquakes we have experienced show that more effective and faster information gathering is needed. It is necessary to know the magnitude of the earthquake, which region it caused the most destruction in, and even which streets and... Predicting that damage has occurred to the structure could prevent many casualties. 5 Determining whether there are any survivors in a building that collapsed during an earthquake is another problem. This creates problems. The limited number of external sensing devices means that professionals in the training field... The necessity of using it and the time lost in management and administration are the main problems that arise. This is the biggest development seen in search and rescue and response efforts following the February 6th earthquakes. The challenge is: how many buildings were destroyed in which region, and from which of the destroyed buildings were survivors rescued? It has been reported that a signal was received. Rescue teams reached the structure that collapsed after the devastating earthquakes. One of the biggest challenges for the teams is determining whether there are any survivors in the collapsed building. This is due to the fact that the equipment used in rescue operations is expensive, and the operator who will use it is not skilled. the need for training and the insufficient number of measuring devices at the time of the massive destruction Therefore, rescue efforts are not progressing at the desired pace. 15 The document numbered KR20180061091A, seen in the known state of the art, is "Earthquake Detection".

Device (1) 30 Coordinator type device (2) that works on a similar logic and has RF inside for wireless communication It has a communication module (1.12) and a Bluetooth module (1.2). Buildings with fewer than 3 floors In buildings where there is only one device (1), the RF communication module (1.12) is directly on the top of the building. It provides communication with the coordinator type device (2) located on the ground floor / attic. Building floor number 13 Daily for the devices (1) which are planned to be located on at least one floor in buildings with 3 or more floors. In normal operation, the RF communication module (1.12) works with building type and coordinator type devices (1,2). It provides communication. The necessity of communication between devices (1) is the ground floor in multi-story buildings. The data obtained by the device (1) located on the floor is sent to the coordinator type device (2) located on the top floor / roof floor. It needs to be able to transmit the information. This transmission is interrupted due to the influence of environmental factors. Because it may be affected, the device on the lowest floor (1) sends data to the nearest device on the upper floor (1). It sends and this is also true for other devices (1). This loop is sent to the coordinator type device (2) It ends when the information is received. If the device (1) is buried under rubble after a possible earthquake, the RF communication module (1.12) is used to provide communication between the rubble and above the rubble. Device (1) RF communication 10 It includes the internal antenna (1.13) used for module (1.12). The internal antenna (1.13) can withstand any external To prevent damage from strong impacts (such as collisions or falls), the device should not be outside the device itself, as shown in Figure 3. It must be located inside the circuit box. The antenna (1.13) must be connected directly to the RF communication module. (1.12) will increase the dimensions of the device (1) and the placement of the device (1) is planned 15 The antenna (1.13) is positioned so that it is parallel to the ground plane. Antenna (1.13) and RF The communication module (1.12) connection is made with a coaxial cable with an impedance of 50Ω. The bluetooth module (1.2) located in the device (1) ensures that the device (1) is under the rubble in the event of a possible earthquake. If it remains unused, it can be connected to Bluetooth devices such as smartphones / tablets without the need for special equipment. It enables connection with devices that have the application. Similar features and application coordinator 20 This also applies to type device (2). Speakers (1.10, 2.10) located within devices (1,2) and microphones (1.11, 2.11) above and below the rubble in case these devices (1,2) are buried under the rubble. Used for voice communication. The speakers (1.10, 2.10) are waterproof and have a flat surface design. 1 Watt By generating acoustic sound waves in the mid-frequency range at RMS sound power, it can reach those trapped under the rubble. It enables communication with living / injured people via sound. Speakers (1.10, 2.10) and microphones (1.11, 25 2.11) Its resistance to water and mechanical impacts conforms to IP67 standards. The activities that the device (1) will perform will be before, during and after the earthquake. It has been explained. (1) pre-earthquake condition of the building type device: For each building, at least one of these 30 columns shall be placed on the lowest column closest to the approximate center of mass of the building. It is placed. The device (1) is placed inside the device (1) during its daily operation, i.e. before the earthquake. By receiving information from the accelerometer and angle sensor (1.14) located on the site, the building is exposed to an earthquake wave It detects that there is no remaining electronic circuit inside the device (1) from the accelerometer and angle sensor (1.14). 14 It checks data arriving 100 times per second. This depends on the location and the number of floors in the building. This value can be increased accordingly. As a result of the data received from the accelerometer and angle sensor (1.14), any If there is no seismic wave data, the device will continue to operate in this manner. It charges and discharges its battery (1.8) with the battery management module (1.6) at certain intervals. It performs its operations. Thus, the continuity of the battery (1.8) life cycle is ensured. 5 Under normal operating conditions, the device's bluetooth module (1.2) is passive and the RF communication module (1.12) is active. inside it, the coordinator type device (2) is active at certain intervals and battery (1.8) information is sending. The condition of the building type device (1) during the earthquake: The device (1) operates by receiving data from the accelerometer and angle sensor (1.14) 100 times per second and every 10 It compares the data against a defined threshold data limit. If the data is outside these threshold limits... If it obtains data, it can determine that there has been an earthquake / shaking. The device (1) and similarly If the coordinator type device (2) obtains data outside the specified threshold value data limit It switches to disaster mode as defined in its programs. In disaster mode, the device (1) is not connected to external devices until the last moment. It meets the energy requirement from the electrical connection (1.7) at the power input and only in the event of a power outage 15 In this case, it uses the energy of the internal battery (1.8). The accelerator used in the devices (1,2) in the invention The screenshot of the interface program operation for the angle sensor (1.14) is given in Figure 3. Accordingly, Program interface showing data received wirelessly from the accelerometer and angle sensor (1.14) It is seen that the horizontal axis shown in Figure 3 is the time axis. (ac) acceleration change in mm / s2, (bd) indicates the angular change in degrees. In this preliminary study, the box containing the sensor (1.14) is 20 It has been artificially moved back and forth. The change in acceleration occurring in (a) is very small and According to the change in acceleration at (c), the motion is long-duration. In the figure, the change in acceleration at a is... The resulting angular change is shown in b, and this angular change is the angular change that occurs in d. The change occurred over a longer period of time. As a result, the location of the sensor (1.14) is considered. This can be seen from the angular change graphs as the box returns to its starting position. 25 Building type device (1) case where the building was not destroyed during the earthquake: The data received from the accelerometer and angle sensor (1.14) of the device (1) is again within the defined threshold value data limits. If this happens and the values return to their initial levels, it means the earthquake / shaking has ended and the building... It can detect that the column on which the device (1) is mounted does not collapse in case of earthquake / shaking. It records the largest angular and acceleration changes that occur on it in its internal memory (1.3). 30 If the electrical power supply from the external power connection (1.7) was not interrupted, as stated before the earthquake. It continues to operate. If the power is cut off from the external power connection (1.7), the device (1) is in disaster mode. In this mode, use the lighting modules located above 5% of the internal battery (1.8). It spends money on this. In the event of a normal earthquake / shaking, the building's movement ceases as a result. The residents want to leave the building immediately. What if the building's electricity is cut off, and many... Since there is no emergency lighting system in the building, the environment at the location of the device (1) It provides lighting. The purpose here is to provide ambient lighting during the evacuation of building occupants. The aim is to contribute to making evacuation easier and faster by providing 5% of the internal battery (1.8). With its energy, the device can provide ambient lighting for approximately 10-15 minutes at the location where it is located (1). If the device (1) does not receive electrical power again and has a 5% battery (1.8) for ambient lighting to be able to use the remaining energy of the battery (1.8) for a longer time after it has used up its level It enters standby mode. This standby mode continues until the power supply is restored. ...is happening. If electricity is restored, normal operation will resume as described before the earthquake. 10 It continues in this form. If the electrical power does not come back and the battery (1.8) level is below 50% If it drops below this level, the device (1) will only take the RF communication module (1.12) into the receiving position, and the other components within it It cuts off the electricity to all other circuit components. The purpose here is in the event of an earthquake / tremor. It is possible that another earthquake / tremor may occur afterwards, or due to the damage the building has sustained, a certain period of time may pass. Because the device might collapse over time, it is able to maintain the continuity of activation even under rubble. 15 Device (1) activation in case all building occupants cannot leave the building and the building collapses This is crucial for accessing those trapped under the rubble. Building type device (1) situation where the building was destroyed during the earthquake: Following the earthquake, the building may have been damaged during, immediately after, or over time. The building's structural integrity is reduced by 20% as a result of damage sustained during aftershocks or earthquakes. The building may collapse as a result of the decrease in time. The device (1) detects that the building has collapsed. outside the threshold value data limits specified in its programming, with the data it receives from its sensors (1.14) It can understand. In this case, the device (1) will continue to operate by putting itself into disaster mode. As a result of the building being demolished, the electrical power supply to the device (1) was cut off from the external power connection (1.7) internally. It starts using its battery (1.8). However, the receiver 25 uses the RF communication module (1.12). By placing it in this position, it activates the bluetooth module (1.2). In this mode, the device (1) battery (1.8) level If it drops below 50%, switch the RF communication module (1.12) to the receiving position, and the device (1) It cuts off the electricity to all other circuit components within it. At this stage and in this In this mode, the device (1) can wait for 4 days (96 hours). The device (1) that remains under the rubble, its internal battery (1.8) can be activated with the debris communication device (4) regardless of the energy level 30 and can be put back into standby mode. The device is started to work actively with the communication device (4). (1) receives analog signals from the microphones (1.11) and transmits them to the communication device via the RF communication module (1.12). (4) is sending. Since it is not known in what position the device (1) will be under the rubble, inside Six high-sensitivity microphones (1.11) will be placed in front of, behind, or on the device (1). 16 It is placed above, below, to the right, and to the left. Thus, it has the ability to pick up sound in its environment. It is getting better. Debris rescue personnel using the debris communication device (4) under the debris All sounds can be heard thanks to the microphones (1.11, 2.11) located on the devices (1,2). Communication It can send sound to the device under the rubble (1) via the microphone (4.9) located in the device (4). The analog-decoded human voice preamplifier output level is sufficiently increased, and in the power amplifier stage, 1 W 5 It transmits acoustic sound to waterproof speakers (1.10) that will produce high-powered acoustic sound. Thus, help can be given under the rubble. Earthquake victims waiting outside can hear the scanning signal. This allows them to be identified when someone is trapped under the rubble. Direct communication can be established between the earthquake victims and the rubble rescue personnel using the device (1). information such as injuries, current condition, and other health information can be obtained from earthquake victims trapped under the rubble. This makes it easier to determine the number of earthquake victims trapped in the rubble. 10 Therefore, it is important that the device (1) is on all floors of the building. If necessary If the device (1) is in the common stairwell of the building, rubble communication under the rubble With the device (4), ambient lighting can also be provided under the rubble. The bluetooth module (1.2) in the device (1) has been used to protect many buildings in the region during the earthquakes. In case of collapse, while waiting for the rubble communication device (4) to be brought to the rubble, time 15 To avoid losing it, the smartphone / tablet and device (1) on which the application prepared for the invention is installed It can be used to establish wireless connections between devices. It is present in all modern communication devices. The debris can be located using the standard Bluetooth connection and the application installed on smartphones / tablets. It can be carried out, albeit in a limited way, according to the functions offered by the communication device (4). Bluetooth connectivity at 2.45 GHz frequency has limited access under rubble depending on environmental conditions. This can be done over a distance, and Bluetooth connectivity only allows communication between two devices. However, the debris communication device (4) recognizes every thanks to its powerful RF communication module (4.10). from a certain distance with all devices under the rubble within the coverage area (1) before going to the site of the rubble. It enables communication. Coordinator type device (2), column closest to the approximate center of mass of the building on the highest floor of the building 25 It is placed on top of it. Apart from that, the roof floor is closest to the approximate center of mass of the building. It can be placed at any point / surface. It can be installed in every building, regardless of the number of floors. The main task of this device (2), which was designed for this purpose, is to protect the building from earthquakes in the event of a possible earthquake. Information regarding whether the building collapsed or not during and immediately after the incident was obtained from AFAD's regional offices. It transmits the data to the Central Unit (CU) located in containers placed at the collection points. 30 Even if the building did not collapse after the earthquake, its current condition (information on whether it collapsed or not) must be determined. It transmits to the central unit at certain intervals. One of the other tasks of the device (2) is during an earthquake acceleration and angular changes occurring approximately at the center of mass as a result of the forces to which the building is subjected The device stores the information from the sensors (2.14) regarding value changes in its internal memory (2.3). (2) 17 Another task is to communicate with earthquake victims trapped under the rubble if the building collapses. This will make it easier to activate the speakers (2.10) and microphones (2.11) under user control. The coordinator has controls and identification number for the operation of the device (2). A microcontroller (2.1) is required. The first function of the microcontroller (2.1) is to control the central unit (2) of the device. RF communication modules (2.12, 5) that enable communication with the building and communication with indoor devices (1). 2.15) is to control. The working logic of the coordinator type device (2) is the same as the building type device (1). Building The differences between the type of device (1) and the device (2) are the role it undertakes in circuit design and operation. Primarily, the device (2) It includes two internal antennas (2.13, 2.16) and a communication module (2.12, 2.15). With the devices inside the building (1) It uses the RF communication module (2.12) and the internal antenna (2.13) to communicate. This figure shows the operation. This also applies to devices (1). The most notable additions for coordinator device (2) are YG (High Power)-RF 10 The communication module (2.15), central unit internal antenna (2.16) and external antenna (2.17) inputs are connected. Operation of the battery management module (2.6) under normal operating conditions for device (2), battery compartment (2.9), battery (2.8) and sensor (2.14) data acquisition is the same as with building type device (1). The main purpose of the device (2) is to determine whether the building has collapsed or not by means of data received from the existing sensors in the building. The device (1) communicates with the central unit during and immediately after the earthquake. Since it is intended to be installed, it is sufficient to have one for each building. Algorithm created for Device (2) The program loaded into the microcontroller (2.1) transmits the program to other devices (1) inside the building at specified intervals. It will check its activation and save it to its internal memory (2.3). This is done by the RF communication module. It is carried out with (2.12). Both RF communication modules (2.12, 2.15) located in the device (2) It uses a monopole antenna. Since the radiation pattern of a monopole antenna will be perpendicular to the antenna plane, this 20 In order to enable communication by radiation, the internal antenna (2.13) to be used for indoor communication is placed on the ground plane. Central unit internal antenna (2.16) and external antenna that will provide transmission with the central unit in parallel. The antenna on the building roof, connected to the antenna inlet (2.17), is positioned perpendicular to the ground plane. The internal antennas (2.13, 2.16) are mounted directly onto the RF communication modules (2.12, 2.15) of the device. To increase their dimensions, the connection between the module (2.12, 2.15) and the antenna (2.13, 2.16) should preferably be a dual-shielded 25 is provided with a coaxial cable of suitable impedance. The microcontroller (2.1) periodically during the day. by communicating with other devices (1) and receiving information from other accelerometer and angle sensors (1.14) from its internal accelerometer and It compares the data it receives from the angle sensor (2.14). Simultaneously, the battery of the devices (1) (1.8, 2.8) also receives status information. The device (2) periodically receives information from the devices during its daily activation. (1) It receives activation information and sends it to the central unit. In case of any earthquake detection, all 30 The process is activated within 20ms at the latest. The pre-earthquake status of the coordinator type device (2): 18 The algorithm checks the activation of other devices (1) inside the building at the periods determined for device (2). It does this. It saves this to its internal memory (2.3). It uses RF for communication within the building. Communication is carried out using the communication module (2.12) and its internal antenna (2.13). A device (2) Under normal operating conditions, it should communicate with the central unit once a day, every 24 hours. This number is required. This number can be increased or decreased as needed. The device has 5 (2) Other pre-earthquake study parameters are the same as with building type device (1). The condition of the coordinator type device (2) during the earthquake: If the device (2) detects the earthquake wave from the data it receives from the accelerometer and angle sensor (2.14) the highest amplitude occurring in the x, y, z planes for Cartesian coordinates at its location It stores the acceleration and angle signals in its internal memory (2.3). In such a scenario, many buildings have 10 Because a lot of data will be generated and this data will be transmitted to the central unit simultaneously. In order to prevent the system from locking up due to increased data density, information is stored in memory (2.3) It is being recorded. It also records the data it receives from other devices (1) into its internal memory (2.3). For the building The central unit is informed that the building has collapsed upon detection of the specified critical angle or acceleration values. The device is sent with its (2) identification number. The province, district and 15 in the device's (2) identification number Since neighborhood information is included, this data shows how many buildings were destroyed regionally during the earthquake. The data that may be available can be monitored in real time and recorded in the database. Device (2) uses a high-power RF communication module (2.15) for communication with the central unit. This module (2.15) has two monopole antennas: an internal (2.16) and an external antenna connection (2.17). There is a connection. The antenna to be used for the external antenna connection (2.17) will be placed on the roof of the building 20 The placement of the antenna is necessary. The aim here is to minimize the impact of environmental factors on the antenna radiation. The aim is to ensure uninterrupted communication with the center by preventing it from being affected, such as when the building begins to collapse or In the event that the building does not collapse but the roof collapses or similar situations, the external antenna connection of the device (2) (2.17) In case of damage, communication with the central unit will be via the internal antenna located inside the device (2). (2.16) is used. All internal antenna (2.13,2.16) connections for device (2) are suitable for dual shielding 25 The impedance is provided by coaxial cable. The device's electricity is supplied from the external power connection (2.7). In the event of a power outage, the device obtains its electrical energy from its internal battery (2.8). The battery (2.8) In order to provide electricity to the device for a longer period of time, the microcontroller (2.1), sensor (2.14) and The communication module (2.2, 2.12, 2.15) operates according to the usage intervals specified in its algorithm. It is possible to change the duration of the periods. 30 Post-earthquake status of the coordinator type device (2): The operation of the device (2) varies depending on the condition of the building after the earthquake. If the building If it is not damaged, after establishing communication with the central unit, in order to avoid creating congestion in data communication 19 It communicates with hourly data, except when it is requested to send data again from the central unit. External If the electrical connection from the power input (2.7) is interrupted, the battery (2.8) remains active. To increase the usage time, the battery (2.8) continues to operate until the charge level reaches 25%. It enters standby mode after reaching this charge level. Reconnecting the power supply is necessary. or if the power connection is never interrupted, active 5 as described before the earthquake. He continues to work as such. The device (2) uses preset (threshold value data limits) data from the accelerometer and angle sensor (2.14). If the reading is high, the device can determine that the building has collapsed. Other parts of the building... It instantly sends the data it receives from the devices (1) and the collapse information to the central unit along with the identification number. It sends it as follows. Thus, during and immediately after the earthquake, within seconds, the earthquake signal is transmitted. It is possible to access the structural integrity reports of all buildings in the region. In case of building collapse, the device (2) will disconnect the power supply from the external power connection (2.7). It starts using its internal battery (2.8) because it will lose power. The building is now back to its former state. because it cannot return, it uses a high-power RF communication module (2.15) for communication with the central unit. It switches off the accelerometer and angle sensor (2.14) to save energy. In this case, the device now has 15 (2) starts operating in disaster mode. In disaster mode, the device (2) operates at the lowest power level. The Bluetooth module (2.2) and the RF communication module (2.12) continue to operate. The aim here is, In large-scale earthquakes affecting a wide area, when numerous buildings collapse, the rubble... The rescue teams that arrive at the scene do not always have access to professional equipment. The reason for this is to make it easier for teams to communicate with earthquake victims under the rubble, due to the lack of access. This 20 For this reason, if the teams have rubble communication devices (4), they can contact the buildings in their location. They can communicate with devices (1,2). If there is no communication device (4), they can communicate with those under the rubble. For the purpose of communication, the Bluetooth module (2.2) is therefore installed in the devices (1,2). Any smartphone / tablet with a Bluetooth module can use an application to connect with devices under the rubble. They are able to communicate. 25 If communication is established with the RF communication module (2.12) or the bluetooth module (2.2), the device peripheral equipment located on the circuit board (2.5) including speaker (2.10) and microphone (2.11) They transmit their connections to communication devices (4). In this way, earthquake victims under the rubble their voices to rescue teams or personnel located on or around the rubble They can make announcements. Similarly, teams or assigned personnel can also communicate with earthquake victims. 30 They are able to provide. The device (2) remains in communication unless it receives a command to the contrary. It continues to operate actively until its battery (2.8) runs out. The external casing (3) structures of the devices (1,2): The devices (1,2) will not be exposed to any external factors during daily use, so they will be kept in a fixed box. Its presence will be sufficient. However, external collapse, damage, and destruction during and after the earthquake are also a concern. In similar cases, the outer casing of the device containing the circuit board (1.5, 2.5) and its components (1.4, 2.4) (3) It meets IP67 standards for durability. In the first stage, the circuit board (1.5, 2.5), battery (1.8, 2.8) connection, speaker (1.10, 2.10) and microphone (1.11, 5 2.11) connections, RF communication module (1.11, 2.12, 2.15) connections, accelerometer and angle sensors (1.14, 2.14) The connections are not on the same circuit board (1.5, 2.5). They are connected to each other by flexible cables. They are connected. All components of the devices (1,2) are on the same circuit board (1.5, 2.5), the circuit board (1.5, 2.5) will increase the dimensions and the large-sized circuit board (1.5, 2.5) will be subjected to external forces. Solder cracking in the device (1,2) makes it easier to break the circuit board (1.5, 2.5). To protect against shocks, falls, and impacts, all modules are connected to each other with flexible cables. In order to protect the components of the device (1,2) by absorbing external forces in such situations etc. The components inside the device (1,2) (except for the accelerometer and angle sensor) are covered with a soft silicone layer, i.e., silicone coated. It is placed inside the circuit block (3.1). Thus, it is completely flexible and resistant to possible external forces. A circuit design has been obtained. The most accurate data in the device (1,2) is obtained directly from the device (1,2) 15 Accelerometer and angle sensors (1.14, 2.14) are placed inside the outer casing (3) of the device (1,2) to take it from where it is placed. It is mounted directly on the wall, but the circuit board (1.5, 2.5) connections are still made with flexible cables. It was made. Then the circuit block (3.1) inside the soft silicone coating is shown in Figure - 5. It is placed inside a cage made of iron bar (3.2) with a thickness of 3 mm and a width of 2 cm. The purpose here is While obtaining a highly flexible and absorbent environment inside the outer casing (3), the outside of the circuit block (3.1) is 20 It is protected inside a cage made of very strong iron plate (3.2). The circuit components (1.4) are placed inside an iron cage (3.2). Iron bar (3.2) housing It is in the form of and is configured to best protect the existing circuit of the device (1,2). Closed In cage design, the device is expected to make RF communication with its internal antennas (1.13, 2.13, 2.16) and (1,2). Bluetooth connections will be negatively affected, so from the front, side and top (symmetrically 25 The cage design was deemed appropriate to have gaps (at the back and bottom). The bodies of the devices (1,2) (3) and it is known that the stress to which the enclosures are subjected under external force will be concentrated at the corners. The corners are designed in an oval shape, not perpendicular. The iron bar (3.2) is located in the silicone coating inside the cage. The circuit block (3.1) is finished by being covered with high-strength hard plastic. The housing (3) Its casing is not a single piece. Because a single-piece structure is more susceptible to crushing and twisting due to external factors. 30 In situations like these, it cannot absorb mechanical impact. Therefore, the PVC enclosure will need to be stacked three times on top of each other. It is structured in this way, and the top layer is made of a heat-resistant material. Figure 6 shows the fuselage. (3) appearance is given. The building-mounted sensor kits have waterproof and mechanical strength (max 21 Manufactured according to IP67 standards (40 tons). Sensor board and LiPo battery unit, integral antenna with silicone filling. It is located inside. The sensor main body is made of 15 mm thick CrNi and has a heat-resistant, waterproof seal. Identification of devices (1,2): Each device (1,2) contains its own identification number. The number is also available outside of the device (1,2). It appears that the data it sends to the central unit is identified via this identification number. 5 For example, in the identification number 00.01.001.0001, the first two digits “00” represent the province where the device is located, and “.01” represents the device's location. The district in the province where the device is located, “.001” indicates the neighborhood in the district where the device is located, “.0001” is the device's ID. It shows the identification number. This identification number represents the start bits for the data sent by the devices. It constitutes. Wreck communication device (4): 10 The debris communication device (4) communicates wirelessly with other devices (1,2) that are within communication range. It is used to establish and enable voice communication. Device (4) internal circuit The positioning and appearance of its components are shown in Figure 7. Communication device (4), microcontroller (4.1), bluetooth module (4.2), internal memory (4.3), USB port, RF Communication module (4.10), internal antenna (4.11), battery (4.6), speaker (4.8), microphone (4.9) equipment 15 These devices include the same functions as building type and coordinator type devices (1,2). It has. The device (4) is located within the central unit and is the number foreseen as a result of the studies. It is kept ready for use at all times. A communication device (4) earthquake Prior to this, meaning assuming the buildings were not demolished, all installations in buildings within a 5 km range. It can communicate with devices (1,2). In case of buildings collapsing after a possible earthquake, 20 because the antenna positions of the devices under the rubble (1,2) will change relative to the ground plane Even under these conditions, the communication device (4) can communicate with other devices (1,2) within a range of at least 1 km. It is ensured that it can pass through. The basic function of the device (4) is to pass through under the possible collapsed building after the earthquake. It is possible to communicate with the remaining building type device (1). The coordinator type device (2) is located in the buildings. Since it will be on the top floor, in the event of the building collapsing, a 25-foot pole will be on or near the rubble. Since it is anticipated that it will be in this location, it first communicates with the building type device (1). Alternative Communication can also be established with coordinator type devices (2). Communication device (4) RF The communication module (4.10) stores the identification numbers of the devices (1,2) from which it receives data in its internal memory (4.3). It records and displays the identity to the user via the touchscreen (4.12). The user's identity is displayed on the screen. By selecting the devices listed with the number (1,2), you can connect directly. The connected device (1,2) 30 It can make voice calls via speaker (1.10, 2.10) and microphone (1.11, 2.11). Nearby When it needs to be used at a distance, a Bluetooth connection with a Bluetooth module (4.2) is also preferred. It can be done. The device (4) can change the operating modes of other devices (1,2) to which it is connected. 22 or by putting the devices (1,2) into sleep mode, the batteries (1.8, 2.8) can be used for longer.
