This paper proposed a method that detects emergency situations in a video stream using MHI (Motion History Image) and template matching for a video-based intelligent security system. The proposed method creates a MHI of each human object through image processing technique such as background removing based on GMM (Gaussian Mixture Model), labeling and accumulating the foreground images, then the obtained MHI is compared with the existing MHI templates for detecting an emergency situation. To evaluate the proposed emergency detection method, a set of experiments on the dataset of video clips captured from a security camera has been conducted. And we successfully detected emergency situations using the proposed method. In addition, the implemented system also provides MMS (Multimedia Message Service) so that a security manager can deal with the emergency situation appropriately.

The broadcasting system for the customer safety and conveniency is one of the important convenience facilities taking charge of customer guidance, emergency situation broadcasts for the people waiting at the platform, waiting lounge and train approaching broadcasts. To maintain this broadcasting facility local management control system(LMC) is needed. LMC observes operation status of the facility components which is set up at station and the observation results are confirmed through out remote management PC installed in the jurisdiction branch office. The staff only observes and confirms the errors of the electrical power source at broadcasting facility components accordingly the real mechanical troubles are detected by on-the-spot survey. this paper deals with existing broadcasting system only acting as a simple observation function and the research of LMC function extension which controls, monitors and tests broadcasting facility.

Emergency alerting broadcasting of T-DMB is being serviced to deliver the event of a disaster to the people quickly and effectively through a T-DMB network. DGPS has been developed in order to improve the accuracy of the GPS receiving data and transmitting of DGPS information through the T-DMB network is being studied for a wide range of usage. Because DGPS information and AEAS message are sent through the same T-DMB network, if DGPS information is applied to AEAS message disaster area can be specified more precisely and the exact location of the disaster can be measured in the terminal. In this paper, a implementation method of T-DMB emergency alerting broadcasting system based on a DGPS including a new structure of AEAS message was proposed to identify the location of disaster accurately.

It is expected that standardization framework for urban rail transit system will contribute to more convenient and safe traffic service and ensure higher reliability and availability of urban rail transit rolling stock and infrastructure. Since 1995, Korea Railroad Research Institute has been performing the project for standardization and development of urban rail transit technology to improve performance, safety and operational efficiency. Communication system in urban rail transit consists of various subsystems, such as radio communication system, digital transmission system, integrated monitoring system and broadcasting system and its standardization will be implemented based on these subsystem. Broadcasting system is to provide information related to operation and emergency to passengers and operators. In this paper, we suggest standardization scheme for urban rail transit broadcasting system through analysis on present state of the system.

국내에서 DMB 방송은 대부분의 국민이 휴대하는 휴대폰에 수신기능이 구현되어 있고, 차량 네비게이션에서도 DMB 수신이 가능하여 상당히 보편적 미디어 창구이다. 본 연구에서는 DMB기반의 국지적 재난방송은 국지적 재난의 빈번한 발생과 휴대 기기가 갖는 고유의 개인 중심성과 이동성은 국지적 재난 미디어로 활용할 기술 개발은 큰 의미를 가진다. 국지적 재난방송을 위한 DMB 재난방송 서비스 모델과 방송 시스템 상위 설계 및 기술요구사항 도출 등의 연구를 연차별로 진행 하였다. DMB방송 시스템을 운영한 KBS의 경험을 반영하고, 국지적 방송을 위한 저비용의 시스템을 목표로 국지적 재난 정보 전달에 적합한 방송 시스템 상위 설계와 시스템 간 인터페스 및 기술 개발에 필요한 상세 요구사항을 분석하였다. 이러한 연구의 정확성과 실제 상용화 가능성을 높이기 위해 DMB 방송 차량을 이용한 필드 테스트를 추진하였다. 필드 테스트 에서는 KBS 재난방송시스템과 실시간 연동을 통해 향후 실제 재난방송에 활용 될 수 있는 방송 시스템 운용에 필요한 사항 들을 점검하였다.

A public address (PA) system installed in a building is a system that delivers alerts, announcements, instructions, etc. in an emergency or disaster situation. As for the products used in PA systems, with the development of information and communication technology, PA products with various functions have been introduced to the market. PA systems recently launched in the market may be connected through a single network to enable efficient management and operation, or use voice recognition technology to deliver quick information in case of an emergency. In addition, a system capable of locating a user inside a building using a location-based service and guiding or responding to a safe area in the event of an emergency is being launched on the market. However, the new PA systems currently on the market add some functions to the existing PA system configuration to make system operation more convenient, but they do not change the complex PA system configuration to reduce facility costs, maintenance, and management costs. In this paper, we propose a novel PA system configuration for buildings using audio networks and control hierarchy over peer-to-peer (Anchor) technology based on audio over IP (AoIP), which simplifies the complex PA system configuration and enables convenient operation and management. As a result of the study, through the emergency signal processing algorithm, fire broadcasting was made possible according to the detection of the existence of a fire signal in the Anchor system. In addition, the control device of the PA system was replaced with software to reduce the equipment installation cost, and the PA system configuration was simplified. In the future, it is expected that the PA system using Anchor technology will become the standard for PA facilities.

Emergency lights and exit signs are an indispensable part of safety precautions for effective evacuation in case of emergency in public buildings. These emergency sign indicates safe escape routes and emergency doors, using an internationally recognizable sign. However visibility of those signs drops drastically in case of emergency situations like fire smoke, etc. and loss of visibility causes serious problems for safety evacuation. This paper propose a novel emergency light and exit sign built-in with Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) Beacon to assist the emergency self-guiding evacuation using devices for crisis and emergency management to avoid panic condition inside the buildings. In this approach, the emergency light and exit sign with the BLE beacons deployed in the indoor environments and the smart devices detect their indoor positions, direction to move, and next exit sign position from beacon messages and interact with map server in the Internet / Intranet over the available LTE and/or Wi-Fi network connectivity. The map server generate an optimal emergency exit path according to the nearest emergency exit based on a novel graph generation method for less route computation for each smart device. All emergency exit path data interfaces among three system components, the emergency exit signs, map server, and smart devices, have been defined for modular implementation of our emergency evacuation system. The proposed exit sign experimental system has been deployed and evaluated in real-time building environment thoroughly and gives a good evidence that the modular design of the proposed exit sign system and a novel approach to compute emergency exit path route based on the BLE beacon message, map server, and smart devices is competitive and viable.

본 논문에서는 기존 재난문자의 원리인 CBS(Cell Broadcast Service)의 한계를 극복하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 재난 상황에서 CBS는 단방향으로 사람들에게 정보를 전달할 수 있으나 양방향 소통이 불가능하여, 어떤 사람이 어디에서 문제를 겪고 있는지를 파악할 수 없다. 재난 상황 시 효율적으로 정보를 관리하고, 요구조자에 대한 구조를 진행할 수 있다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 방법은 상황 설명과 위치 등을 생략하는 등 재난 피해 신고를 간편화하여 재난 상황으로 인한 피해를 추정하기 힘들다는 문제를 개선할 수 있다. 또한 이전에는 위치와 상황을 구체적으로 알려야 신고가 접수되었지만, 사용자가 위치와 상황을 구체적으로 알리지 않더라도 문자로 구조 요청이 가능해진다. 더 나아가, 재난 상황 시 음성을 추적할 수 있게 하여 직접 구조요청을 하지 못하는 상황에 대한 대처도 가능하다.

Recently USN has been widely used and a lot of research issues have been focused on network configuration. The SOS system is one of the USN applications. The SOS system inherently uses broadcasting due to its emergency. However, a naive broadcasting may cause a significant problem called broadcasting storm. This paper introduces a new trust concept into USN and proposes a new broadcasting algorithm solving the broadcast storm problem.
