ICタグおよびICリーダーを用いた簡易浸水センサーの開発

抄録

In this study, a simplified inundation sensor using IC tag and IC reader was developed. For the sensor detecting inundation, IC tag and IC reader were employed due to its lower price and easy maintenance. A 950MHz band was applied to the IC tag in consideration of reliability and communication distance.

In developing the device, tests were conducted on the assumption of actual flooding and the communication property for the IC tag and IC reader was analyzed. Through these, it was ensured that the devise functions smoothly as the sensor. Since the device is inexpensive, easy to maintain, and only requires the small space to set, it is possible for some of the devices to distribute in the city and get dimensional real-time flooding information. Therefore, the device is expected to be useful to support evacuation guidance at the time of flood for the future ubiquitous information society.
