Application of fire monitoring and personnel evacuation in subway station based on Wireless Sensor Network

Abstract

It is a common topic to apply the fire monitoring and personnel evacuation in fire safety field of inside building. But there are few applying researches on fire safety field of underground building, especially in subway station fire. This paper made a trial application of WSN (Wireless Sensor Network) technology into fire monitoring and personnel evacuation during subway station fire, and built a synthetic system of fire monitoring and personnel evacuation based on some advanced algorithms. And the system has been proved to work effectively in monitoring fire and directing the distressed people and rescuers to evacuate in the subway station fire.
