Abstract

Tunnels have limited evacuation areas, and It is difficult for cars coming from behind to recognize the accident situation in front. Since an accident is very likely to lead to a serious secondary accident, a IoT-based smart tunnel accident warning system was studied to prepare for traffic accidents that occur in tunnels. If the measured values from the flame detection sensor, gas detection sensor, and shock detection sensor in the tunnel exceed the standard, it is judged to be an emergency situation and an alert system is designed to operate. The accident information message was designed to be displayed on the LCD and transmitted to drivers inside and outside the tunnel through a Wi-Fi communication network. A performance test system was established and performance evaluation was performed for several accident scenarios. As a result of the test, it was confirmed that the accident alert system can accurately detect accidents based on given reference values, perform alert procedures, and transmit alert messages to smart phones through Wi-Fi wireless communication. And through this, its effectiveness could be confirmed.

터널은 대피 장소가 한정적이며 후방 진입 차량들이 전방 사고 상황을 인식하기 어렵기 때문에 터널 교통 사고 시 2차 사고로 이어질 가능성이 매우 높다. 본 논문에서는 터널 교통 사고 시 파급 효과를 경감하기 위한 사물 인터넷 기반의 스마트 터널 사고 경보 시스템에 대해 연구하였다. 터널 내의 불꽃 감지 센서, 가스 감지 센서와 충격 감지 센서를 활용하여 측정 값이 기준을 초과하면, 비상 상항으로 판단하여 경보 시스템이 작동하도록 설계하였다. 사고가 감지되면 사고 안내 메시지가 LCD를 통해 표시되고, 와이파이 통신 망을 통해 터널 내외 운전자들에게 전송되도록 설계하였다. 하나의 성능 시험 시스템을 구축하였고 수개의 사고 시나리오들에 대해 성능 평가를 수행하였다. 성능 시험 결과, 스마트 사고 경보 시스템이 주어진 기준 값을 기준으로 정확하게 사고를 감지, 경보 절차를 수행하고 와이파이 무선 통신을 통해 경보 메시지를 스마트 폰에 성공적으로 전송함으로써 그 유효성을 확인할 수 있었다.
