This seminar report proposes a life detection system using L-band frequencies to locate humans trapped under earthquake rubble. The system works by transmitting L-band signals that can penetrate rubble and detecting the small reflections from a human body, while cancelling out the larger reflections from the rubble itself. It uses antennas, a clutter cancellation circuit, directional couplers, an amplifier, and microprocessor control to detect and indicate the presence of life under debris. The proposed system could help reduce loss of life from earthquakes by aiding rescue operations.

Abstract

“An earthquake causes loss of many human


lives every year as humans are trapped
under collapsed debris or earthquake
rubble”.

INTRODUCTION
➢ A new revolutionary microwave life detection
system which is used to locate human beings
buried or trapped under earthquake rubble
has been designed.
➢ By advent of this system the world death rate
may decrease to greater extent as large
percentage of death occur due to earthquake.
PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
MAJOR COMPONENTS OF THE
CIRCUITS
BLOCK DIAGRAM
WORKING
➢ The wave radiation by the antenna 1 penetrates the earthquake
rubble to reach the buried person.
➢ The reflected wave received by the antenna 2 consists of large
reflected wave from the rubble and a small-reflected wave from the
person’s body
➢ The large clutter from the rubble can be cancelled by a clutter-
cancelling signal
➢ The small reflected wave from the person’s body couldn't be
cancelled by a pure sinusoidal cancelling because his/her
movements modulate it.
➢ The output of the clutter cancellation circuit is automatically
adjusted to be of equal amplitude and opposite phase as that of the
clutter from the rubble.
➢ Thus, when the output of the clutter cancellation circuit is
combines with the directional coupler 3(3dB), the large clutter
from the rubble is completely cancelled.
➢ Now, the output of the directional coupler 3(3dB) is passed
through a directional coupler 4(6dB).
➢ One-fourth of the output directed is a amplified by a RF pre-
amplifier signal in a double balanced mixer.
➢ Three-fourth of the o/p is directed by a microscope detector to
provide dc output, which serve as the indicator for the degree of
the clutter cancellation.
➢ When the setting of the digitally controlled phase shifter and the
attenuator are swept the microprocessor control system, output
of the microwave detector varies accordingly.
APPLICATION

➢ In military applications
➢ In rescue operations
➢ In war fields, to control UAV(unmanned
aerial vehicles)
ADVANTAGES
➢ No need to use heart beat and breathing sensor
➢ Process is very easy
➢ L-band frequency can able to penetrate upto 10
layers of bricks
➢ Smaller size of detector
➢ Longer life span
DISADVANTAGES

➢ Project is expensive
➢ L-band frequency is unable to penetrate into
metal like structure
➢ Involvement of clutter signal may destroy the
info of life signal
CONCLUSION
This life detection system operating either at
L(or) S band, UHF band can detect the breathing
and heartbeat signals of human beings under
earthquake rubble. By this system the world
death rate as a cause of natural disaster may
decrease to great extent.
