Improving the Method of Preventing Local Emergencies Based on the Results of Acoustic Space Monitoring
Abstract
Purpose: improving the process of preventing local emergencies by implementing acoustic monitoring to detect and identify their sources in urban areas.
Method: methods of analysis and synthesis of acoustic signals; systems analysis methods.
Theoretical implications: conducted studies of the possibilities of the acoustic method for identifying sources of local emergencies associated with large-scale fires of liquid organic substances, the use of firearms and unmanned aerial vehicles. The results of the experiments performed fit into confidence intervals calculated using the Student's t-test with a reliability of 0.95, and indicate an appropriate level of reliability and validity of the acoustic method for detecting and identifying sources of local emergency situations.
Practical implications: a control algorithm has been developed for a method aimed at preventing the occurrence of local-level emergencies under the functioning of the urban system of operational acoustic monitoring of hazardous events and forecasting local-level emergencies. The algorithm involves the execution of five procedures: 1) monitoring the city’s acoustic environment (using a system of ground-based automated acoustic control and passive hazard source localization devices) and analyzing the received acoustic signal (through noise filtering and frequency analysis of the "useful" signal); 2) detection and identification of a hazardous event (by comparing the amplitude-frequency characteristics of the received acoustic signal with data from a database and knowledge base containing acoustic signal characteristics of known hazardous events); 3) modeling and analysis of the threat of a local-level emergency; 4) decision-making to prevent the escalation of a hazardous event into a local-level emergency within the city; 5) coordination of actions of the relevant city services.
Paper type: theoretical, practical.
