Abstract

This paper addresses a cost-effective, flexible solution of underground mine workers' safety. A module of MEMS based sensors are used for underground environment monitoring and automating progression of measurement data through digital wireless communication technique is proposed with high accuracy, smooth control and reliability. A microcontroller is used for collecting data and making decision, based on which the mine worker is informed through alarm as well as voice system. The voice system with both microphone and speaker, transforms into digital signal and effectively communicate wirelessly with the ground control centre computer. ZigBee, based on IEEE 802.15.4 standard is used for this short distance transmission between the hardware fitted with the mine worker and the ground control centre.
