This paper reports on a design of the footstep signal detection system using the seismic sensor. First, we analyzed the characteristics of seismic signal, seismic sensor, and the UGS(Unattended Ground Sensor) system with seismic sensors. In addition, we summarized the existing algorithms to detect footstep using the seismic sensors, and developed our low-power and high efficient footstep detection algorithm. In this paper, the sensor node operations are classified into three different steps and different resources and algorithms are applied to each step, not only to minimize the power consumption, but also to improve the performance.
