Abstract
This study proposes an earthquake early warning (EEW) method for ocean bottom seismic (OBS) data systems of railways. Because the conventional Shinkansen systems adopts only the S-wave alarm method for the OBS data, we demonstrate that the P-wave alarm method can estimate epicentral distance and magnitude using the OBS data but cannot accurately determine back azimuth. Considering this, we propose a concrete method for how to judge whether a warning is issued applying the OBS data. The proposed method enables us to improve the rapidness of EEW and the safety of railways during earthquakes.
