Aerial Robot-Based System for Monitoring Environmental Nuclear Radiation

Article Preview

Abstract:

We propose an aerial robot-based system for monitoring environmental nuclear radiation in real time by taking advantage of the robot responsiveness and efficiency. In the proposed system, we employed small-sized nuclear radiation monitors, 3G/2.4G wireless communication and information distribution techniques to quickly and accurately image the site as well as to measure dose and distribution parameters of nuclear radiation. These data can be sent to the on-site center and the data center via 3G network, allowing data analysis, processing, storing and distribution. Our tests showed that our system was capable of satisfying environmental monitoring requirements on real-time data collection and transmission. Our system provides a novel monitoring platform for transmitting, storing and processing data of environmental nuclear radiation.
