ABSTRACT
Natural Disasters or Natural Calamities, whatever you name it has for long been the most dreaded
cause of mass destruction and loss of human lives, wealth and property. It destroys the beauty of
earth, lives of humans and leave behind no traces of existence. It’s so severe in its approach that
millions and billions of people and land vanishes and escape into oblivion in just a moment. But
nothing fruitful or beneficial could be done as most of the people thought that these disasters are
natural and cannot be averted. As they say, “MAN PROPOSES, GOD DISPOSES” so they have
lived on with the same thought.
But with advancement of Science and Technology and with more research and development more
and more Scientists, Engineers and Physicists concluded that although such a calamity cannot be
averted but a proper precaution can be taken from it. They said “Where there is a will there is a
way” and “Prevention is always better than cure” so with that thought they created an alarming
or a warning system which would well beforehand makes the authorities and the people aware of
the dangers so that precautionary measures can be taken and there is not much or massive loss of
lives and property.
A warning system that can well in advance detect and alarm the people of the dangers and give us
ample time to relocate ourselves so as to avoid the severity caused by the disaster. It uses sensors,
microcontrollers and radio frequency so as to transmit and receive signals. With the technology still
at its infant stage, a lot of automation needs to be done so as to prepare for a better tomorrow and
the need of the hour is to stimulate the best use of growing science and technology.

OBJECTIVE AND MOTIVATION
In this theory, DARWIN proposed “SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST”, which is relevant in modern
professional setup. In order to move at a pace, with today’s technological development we were
required to make a project which was at par with national requirement. Project “Wireless Based
Tsunami And Earthquake Warning System” is the need of the hour as per both technological and
biological aspects.
The task selected wasn’t an easy one to complete all by ourselves. Mr. Hemant Kumar Rajput,
(Project Coordinator EN dept. VGI) and Mr. Saurabh Tiwari, (Asst. Professor EN dept. VGI)
were among those who have motivated us in the completion of this project. They were instrumental
in guiding and instructing us what and how we have achieved. Above all, they were the motivating
factor when our spirits were down.

CHAPTER 1

INTRODUCTION
Previous statistics show the initial tsunami wave from the 1700 event reached the coast in 20 to 30
minutes. So time is limited. Geologic history showed waves with this event were as high as 30 feet.
So you must get at least that high above sea level.
Tectonic earthquakes are a particular kind of earthquake that are associated with the Earth's crustal
deformation; when these earthquakes occur beneath the sea, the water above the deformed area is
displaced from its equilibrium position
We are going to present advance Tsunami Warning System which helps minimize loss of life and
property. We are using piezo electric vibration sensor to sense earth quake and its intensity. Due to
earth quake the water height in sea increases so we are sensing sea water level. These two sensor
will be placed at least 20 km from the sea coast. The reading from these two sensor is transmitted
using 433Mhz FM transmitter to the coastal area. The FM receiver receives the transmitted data and
AT89C52 process the data. We are using LCD to display the earth quake and the increased water
level. If water level increased from the certain value, meaning tsunami is coming so buzzer starts
beeping.

1.3 Working Approach
The whole project can be sub-divided into four basic sections. They are as follows :-
1) Power Supply Section.
2) Transmitter Section.
3) Receiver Section.
4) Fully Assembled Project.
1.3.1 Power Supply Section
This section comprises of a Transformer, Bridge rectifier, Voltage Regulator, Capacitors and
Diodes. Here a 230 V AC supply is fed into the transformer which is being step down to 12 V AC
supply through it. The Bridge Rectifier that includes four diodes in a wheat stone bridge type of
arrangement is used to convert the 12 V AC supply into 12 V DC supply. This supply is then fed
into an electrolytic capacitor that removes the spikes from the voltage supply and then introduced
into the ceramic capacitor which reduces the noise component of the supply. The supply is
regulated through a Voltage Regulator that converts the 12 V DC supply into 5 V DC supply. This
supply is used by all the components present in the project.
1.3.2 Transmitter Section
This section comprises of the electrical probes and the piezo-electric sensor use to detect water
level and vibration respectively. The vibration sensor has an operational amplifier that amplifies the
signal and fed it to the transistor that sends negative pulses into the encoder and that sends the
encoded value into the RF transmitter which transmits it to the other section on 434 MHz
frequency.
6
1.3.3 Receiver Section
This section comprises of the RF Receiver that receives signals on 434 MHz and directs it into the
decoder that sends the decoded value into a suitable form which is being used by the I/O ports of
the 8051 series Atmega AT89C52 microcontroller. The other ports are connected to the 16*2
display section LCD and one port is connected to the buzzer. There is a crystal oscillator used here
to provide timing signals and to the other port reset switch is connected to bring back the values
back to zero.
1.3.4 Fully Assembled Function of the Project
All the sections mentioned above are then assembled together and work in tandem to form the
whole working of the project. Each section i.e. Transmitter and Receiver has its own power supply
and specifications.
When power supply is applied to both the section, the probes have been designed at a different
position of sea level thereby defining the rise and fall of Tsunami. When the water level gradually
increase the probes get connected so that they start conducting. The position of probes define
different water levels as :
a) Normal Wave
b) High Wave
c) Tsunami wave/ Danger Wave
The sensor used here is a piezo-electric sensor which is senses the vibration produced by the
earthquake so when there is an earthquake along with the rising level of water, it results into a very
high and dangerous waves of tsunami. This sensor and probes converts the driving force into a
suitable form of electrical signal which is then amplified and is send to the encoder. Encoder
convert these electrical signal into its digital form and sends it to the RF transmitter which transmits
these signals as a component of frequency at 434 MHz.
Receiver receives these signal at the same frequency 434 MHz and sends it to the decoder that
again converts it into a suitable form and sends it to the microcontroller.
Thus whenever there is any rise or fall of water level an appropriate message is being displayed on
the LCD and a buzzer gets activated sending us a warning level.

POWER SUPPLY
2.1 Transformers
For electronic devices to function it is necessary to have a DC power supply. Batteries and
rechargeable cells can fulfill the role, but a much more efficient way is to use a POWER SUPPLY.
The basic component of a power supplyr is a transformer to transform the 220V "mains" to a lower
value, say 12V. A common type of transformer has one primary winding which connects to the
220V and one (or several) secondary windings for the lower voltages. Most commonly, cores are
made of E and I laminations, but some are made of ferromagnetic material. There are also iron core
transformers used for higher frequencies. Various types of transformers are shown on the picture
below
Fig. 2.0 Various types of Transformer
2.2 RESISTOR
Resistors are the most commonly used component in electronics and their purpose is to create
specified values of current and voltage in a circuit. A number of different resistors are shown in the
photos. (The resistors are on millimeter paper, with 1cm spacing togive some idea of the
dimensions). Photo 1.1a shows some low-power resistors, while photo 1.1b shows some higher-
power resistors. Resistors with power dissipation below 5 watt (most commonly usedtypes) are
cylindrical in shape, with a wire protruding from each end for connecting to a circuit.9
Fig. 2.1 Low Power resistor
.
The symbol for a resistor is shown in the following diagram (upper: American symbol, lower:
European symbol.)
2.2.1 Resistor symbols with colour coding
The unit for measuring resistance is the OHM. (the Greek letter Ω - called Omega).
Fig. 2.2 Resistor colour coding
2.3 CAPACITOR
Capacitors are common components of electronic circuits, used almost as frequently as resistors.
The basic difference between the two is the fact that capacitor resistance (called reactance) depends
on the frequency of the signal passing through the item. The symbol for reactance is Xc and it can
be calculated using the following formula:
10
2.3.2 Electrolytic capacitors:-
Aluminum is used for the electrodes by using a thin oxidization membrane.
Large values of capacitance can be obtained in comparison with the size of the capacitor, because
the dielectric used is very thin.
Electrolytic capacitors represent the special type of capacitors with fixed capacity value. Thanks to
special construction, they can have exceptionally high capacity, ranging from one to several
thousand µF. They are most frequently used in circuits for filtering; however they also have other
purposes.
Electrolytic capacitors are polarized components,
meaning they have positive and negative leads, which is
very important when connecting it to a circuit. The
positive lead or pin has to be connected to the point
with a higher positive voltage than the negative lead. If
it is connected in reverse the insulating layer inside the
capacitor will be "dissolved" and the capacitor will be
permanently damaged.
Explosion may also occur if capacitor is
connected to voltage that exceeds its working voltage. In order to prevent such instances,
one of the capacitor's connectors is very clearly marked with a + or -, while the working
voltage is printed on the case. Fig. 2.3 Electrolytic Capacitor
47µF (16V) [diameter 6 mm, high 5 mm]
100µF (25V) [diameter 5 mm, high 11 mm]
220µF (25V) [diameter 8 mm, high 12 mm]
1000µF (50V) [diameter 18 mm, high 40 mm]
2.3.2 Ceramic Capacitors
11
Ceramic capacitors are constructed with materials such as titanium acid barium used as the
dielectric. Internally, these capacitors are not constructed as a coil, so they can be used in high
frequency applications. Typically, they are used in circuits which bypass high frequency signals to
ground. These capacitors have the shape of a disk. Their capacitance is comparatively small.
The capacitor on the left is a 100pF capacitor with a diameter of about 3 mm.
The capacitor on the right side is printed with 103, so
10 x 103pF becomes 0.01 µF. The diameter of the
disk is about 6 mm.
Fig. 2.4 Ceramic Capacitors
.
2.4 BRIDGE RECTIFIER
A bridge rectifier makes use of four diodes in a bridge arrangement to achieve full-wave
rectification. This is a widely used configuration, both with individual diodes wired as shown and
with single component bridges where the diode bridge is wired internally.
2.4.1 Current flow in the Bridge Rectifier
12
For both positive and negative swings of the transformer, there is a forward path through the diode
bridge. Both conduction paths cause current to flow in the same direction through the load resistor,
accomplishing full-wave rectification.
While one set of diodes is forward biased, the other set is reverse biased and effectively eliminated
from the circuit. when the input connected to the left corner of the diamond is positive, and the input
connected to the right corner is negative, current flows from the upper supply terminal to the right along
the red (positive) path to the output, and returns to the lower supply terminal via the blue(negative) path.
When the input connected to the left corner is negative, and the input connected to the right corner
is positive, current flows from the upper supply terminal to the right along the red (positive) path
to the output, and returns to the lower supply terminal via the blue (negative) path.
In each case, the upper right output remains positive and lower right output negative. Since this is
true whether the input is AC or DC, this circuit not only produces a DC output from an AC input, it
can also provide what is
sometimes called "reverse
polarity protection". That
is, it permits normal
functioning of DC-
powered equipment
when batteries have been installed backwards, or when the leads (wires) from a DC power source
have been reversed, and protects the equipment from potential damage caused by reverse polarity.
2.5 DIODE
A diode is a semiconductor device which allows current to flow through it in only one direction.
Although a transistor is also a semiconductor device, it does not operate the way a diode does. A
diode is specifically made to allow current to flow through it in only one direction. Some ways in
which the diode can be used are listed here.
13
A diode can be used as a rectifier that converts AC (Alternating Current) to DC (Direct Current) for
apower supply device.
Diodes can be used to separate the signal from radio frequencies.
Diodes can be used as an on/off switch that controls current.
Fig. 2.5 Diodes
This symbol is used to indicate a diode in a circuit diagram. The meaning of the symbol is
(Anode) (Cathode). Current
Devices that combine 4 diodes in one package are called diode bridges. They are used for full-wave
rectification.
2.6 Light Emitting Diode (LED)
Fig. 2.6 LEDs
14
Light emitting diodes must be chosen according to how they will be used, because there are various
kinds. The diodes are available in several colors. The most common colors are red and green, but
there are even blue ones.
The device on the far right in the photograph combines a red LED and green LED in one package.
The component lead in the middle is common to both LEDs. As for the remains two leads, one side
is for the green, the other for the red LED. When both are turned on simultaneously, it becomes
orange.
When an LED is new out of the package, the polarity of the device can be determined by looking at
the leads. The longer lead is the Anode side, and the short one is the Cathode side.
The polarity of an LED can also be determined using a resistance meter, or even a 1.5 V battery.
When using a test meter to determine polarity, set the meter to a low resistance measurement range.
Connect the probes of the meter to the LED. If the polarity is correct, the LED will glow. If the
LED does not glow, switch the meter probes to the opposite leads on the LED. In either case, the
side of the diode which is connected to the black meter probe when the LED glows, is the Anode
side. Positive voltage flows out of the
black probe when the meter is set to
measure resistance.
Fig. 2.7 Working of LEDs
2.7 Voltage RegulatorThe MC78XX/LM78XX/MC78XXA series of three terminal positive regulators are available in the
TO-220/D-PAK package and with several fixed output voltages, making them useful in a wide
range of applications. Each type employs internal current limiting, thermal shut down and safe
15
operating area protection, making it essentially indestructible. If adequate heat sinking is provided,
they can deliver over 1A output current. Although designed primarily as fixed voltage regulators,
these devices can be used with external components to obtain adjustable voltages and currents.
2.7.1 Features
• Output Current up to 1A
• Output Voltages of 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 15, 18, 24V

TRANSMITTER SECTION
3.1 TRANSISTORS
A transistor is a semiconductor device used to amplify and switch electronic signals and power. It is
composed of a semi-conductor material with at least three terminals for connection to an external
circuit. A voltage or current applied to one pair of the transistor's terminals changes the current
flowing through another pair of terminals. Because the controlled (output) power can be higher than
the controlling (input) power, a transistor can amplify a signal. Today, some transistors are
packaged individually, but many more are found embedded in integrated circuits.
The transistor is the fundamental building block of modern electronic devices, and is ubiquitous in
modern electronic systems. Following its development in the early 1950s the transistor
revolutionized the field of electronics, and paved the way for smaller and cheaper radios,
calculators, and computers, among other things.
3.1.1 Types of Transistors
3.1.1.1 Bipolar junction transistor
Bipolar transistors are so named because they conduct by using both majority and minority carriers.
The bipolar junction transistor (BJT), the first type of transistor to be mass-produced, is a
combination of two junction diodes, and is formed of either a thin layer of p-type semiconductor
sandwiched between two n-type semiconductors (an n-p-n transistor), or a thin layer of n-type
semiconductor sandwiched between two p-type semiconductors (a p-n-p transistor). This
construction produces two p-n junctions: a base–emitter junction and a base–collector junction,
separated by a thin region of semiconductor known as the base region (two junction diodes wired
together without sharing an intervening semiconducting region will not make a transistor).
The BJT has three terminals, corresponding to the three layers of semiconductor – an emitter,
a base, and a collector. It is useful in amplifiers because the currents at the emitter and collector are
controllable by a relatively small base current." In an NPN transistor operating in the active region,
the emitter-base junction is forward biased (electrons and electron holes recombine at the junction),
and electrons are injected into the base region. Because the base is narrow, most of these electrons
18
will diffuse into the reverse-biased (electrons and holes are formed at, and move away from the
junction) base-collector junction and be swept into the collector; perhaps one-hundredth of the
electrons will recombine in the base, which is the dominant mechanism in the base current. By
controlling the number of electrons that can leave the base, the number of electrons entering the
collector can be controlled. Collector current is approximately β (common-emitter current gain)
times the base current. It is typically greater than 100 for small-signal transistors but can be smaller
in transistors designed for high-power applications.
Unlike the FET, the BJT is a low–input-impedance device. Also, as the base–emitter voltage (Vbe) is
increased the base–emitter current and hence the collector–emitter current (Ice) increase
exponentially according to the Shockley diode model and the Ebers-Moll model. Because of this
exponential relationship, the BJT has a higher transconductance than the FET.
Bipolar transistors can be made to conduct by exposure to light, since absorption of photons in the
base region generates a photocurrent that acts as a base current; the collector current is
approximately β times the photocurrent. Devices designed for this purpose have a transparent
window in the package and are called phototransistors.

3.1.1.2 Field-effect transistor
The field-effect transistor (FET), sometimes called a unipolar transistor, uses either electrons (in N-
channel FET) or holes (in P-channel FET) for conduction. The four terminals of the FET are named
source, gate, drain, and body (substrate). On most FETs, the body is connected to the source inside
the package, and this will be assumed for the following description.
In a FET, the drain-to-source current flows via a conducting channel that connects the source region
to the drain region. The conductivity is varied by the electric field that is produced when a voltage
is applied between the gate and source terminals; hence the current flowing between the drain and
source is controlled by the voltage applied between the gate and source. As the gate–source voltage
(Vgs) is increased, the drain–source current (Ids) increases exponentially for Vgs below threshold, and
then at a roughly quadratic rate ( ) (where VT is the threshold voltage at which
drain current begins) in the "space-charge-limited" region above threshold. A quadratic behavior is
not observed in modern devices, for example, at the 65 nm technology node.
For low noise at narrow bandwidth the higher input resistance of the FET is advantageous.
FETs are divided into two families: junction FET (JFET) and insulated gate FET (IGFET). The
IGFET is more commonly known as a metal–oxide–semiconductor FET (MOSFET), reflecting its
20
original construction from layers of metal (the gate), oxide (the insulation), and semiconductor.
Unlike IGFETs, the JFET gate forms a p-n diode with the channel which lies between the source
and drain. Functionally, this makes the N-channel JFET the solid-state equivalent of the vacuum
tube triode which, similarly, forms a diode between its grid and cathode. Also, both devicesoperate
in thedepletion mode, they both have a high input impedance, and they both conduct current under
the control of an input voltage.
Metal–semiconductor FETs (MESFETs) are JFETs in which the reverse biased p-n junction is
replaced by a metal–semiconductor junction. These, and the HEMTs (high electron mobility
transistors, or HFETs), in which a two-dimensional electron gas with very high carrier mobility is
used for charge transport, are especially suitable for use at very high frequencies (microwave
frequencies; several GHz).
Unlike bipolar transistors, FETs do not inherently amplify a photocurrent. Nevertheless, there are
ways to use them, especially JFETs, as light-sensitive devices, by exploiting the photocurrents in
channel–gate or channel–body junctions.
FETs are further divided into depletion-mode and enhancement-mode types, depending on whether
the channel is turned on or off with zero gate-to-source voltage. For enhancement mode, the
channel is off at zero bias, and a gate potential can "enhance" the conduction. For depletion mode,
the channel is on at zero bias, and a gate potential (of the opposite polarity) can "deplete" the
channel, reducing conduction. For either mode, a more positive gate voltage corresponds to a higher
current for N-channel devices and a lower current for P-channel devices. Nearly all JFETs are
depletion-mode as the diode junctions would forward bias and conduct if they were enhancement
mode devices; most IGFETs are enhancement-mode types.

3.2.3 General Description
The 212 encoders are a series of CMOS LSIs for remote control system applications. They are
capable of encoding information which consists of N address bits and 12_N data bits. Each
address/data input can be set to one of the two logic states. The programmed addresses/data are
transmitted together with the header bits via an RF or an infrared transmission medium upon receipt
of a trigger signal. The capability to select a TE trigger on the HT12E or a DATA trigger on the
HT12A further enhances the application flexibility of the 212 series of encoders. The HT12A
additionally provides a 38kHz carrier for infrared systems.

3.4 SENSORS
3.4.1 Water level sensor:
This sensor is based on the fact that water is not pure water which is non conductor, but it is impure
which is slightly conductor.
Water sensor is nothing but a series of very close PCB tracks. In normal mode these tracks are not
conducting, but when some water fall on these tracks these line slightly start conducting and some
positive voltage is available at the base of transistor So NPN transistor is on and NPN transistor
provide a negative voltage as a pulse to the microcontroller.
3.4.2 Piezo Electric sensor:
The Piezo electric vibration sensor is used to sense earth quake.We use IC LM358 as a main
component. Pin no 8 is connected to the positive supply. Pin no 4 is connected to the negative
voltage. One capacitor is grounded from the pin no 3 for noise cancellation. Output is available on
the pin no 1. Sensor is connected to the pin no 3.
Fig. 3.5 Piezo electric sensor
3.4.2.1 Principle of Operation
Depending on how a piezoelectric material is cut, three main modes of operation can be
distinguished: transverse, longitudinal, and shear.
27
(a) Transverse effect
A force is applied along a neutral axis (y) and the charges are generated along the (x) direction,
perpendicular to the line of force. The amount of charge depends on the geometrical dimensions of
the respective piezoelectric element. When dimensions apply,
,
Where the dimension in line with the neutral axis is, is in line with the charge generating axis
and is the corresponding piezoelectric coefficient.
(b) Longitudinal effect
The amount of charge produced is strictly proportional to the applied force and is independent of
size and shape of the piezoelectric element. Using several elements that are mechanically in series
and electrically in parallel is the only way to increase the charge output. The resulting charge is
,
where is the piezoelectric coefficient for a charge in x-direction released by forces applied
along x-direction (in pC/N). is the applied Force in x-direction [N] and corresponds to the
number of stacked elements .
3.4.2.2 Electrical Properties
Fig. 3.6 Schematic symbol and electronic model of a piezoelectric sensor
28
A piezoelectric transducer has very high DC output impedance and can be modeled as a
proportional voltage source and filter network. The voltage V at the source is directly proportional
to the applied force, pressure, or strain.[5] The output signal is then related to this mechanical force
as if it had passed through the equivalent circuit.
Fig. 3.7 Frequency response of a piezoelectric sensor; output voltage vs applied force
3.4.2.3 Sensor design
Fig. 3.8 Metal disks with piezo material, used in buzzers or as contact microphones
Based on piezoelectric technology various physical quantities can be measured; the most common
are pressure and acceleration. For pressure sensors, a thin membrane and a massive base is used,
ensuring that an applied pressure specifically loads the elements in one direction. For
accelerometers, a seismic mass is attached to the crystal elements. When the accelerometer
experiences a motion, the invariant seismic mass loads the elements according to Newton’s second
law of motion .
29
The main difference in the working principle between these two cases is the way forces are applied
to the sensing elements. In a pressure sensor a thin membrane is used to transfer the force to the
elements, while in accelerometers the forces are applied by an attached seismic mass.
Sensors often tend to be sensitive to more than one physical quantity. Pressure sensors show false
signal when they are exposed to vibrations. Sophisticated pressure sensors therefore use
acceleration compensation elements in addition to the pressure sensing elements. By carefully
matching those elements, the acceleration signal (released from the compensation element) is
subtracted from the combined signal of pressure and acceleration to derive the true pressure
information.
Vibration sensors can also be used to harvest otherwise wasted energy from mechanical vibrations.
This is accomplished by using piezoelectric materials to convert mechanical strain into usable
electrical energy.
3.4.2.4 Sensing materials
Two main groups of materials are used for piezoelectric sensors: piezoelectric ceramics and single
crystal materials. The ceramic materials (such asPZT ceramic) have a piezoelectric constant /
sensitivity that is roughly two orders of magnitude higher than those of the natural single crystal
materials and can be produced by inexpensive sintering processes. The piezoeffect in piezoceramics
is "trained", so unfortunately their high sensitivity degrades over time. The degradation is highly
correlated with temperature. The less sensitive 'natural' single crystal materials (gallium
phosphate, quartz,tourmaline) have a much higher – when carefully handled, almost infinite – long
term stability. There are also new single crystal materials commercially available such as Lead
Magnesium Niobate-Lead Titanate (PMN-PT). These materials offer greatly improved sensitivity
(compared with PZT) but suffer from a lower maximum operating temperature and are currently
much more expensive to manufacture.
3.5 Operational Amplifier3.5.1. Operation
30
An operational amplifier ("op-amp") is a DC-coupled high-gain electronic voltage amplifier with
a differential input and, usually, a single-ended output. An op-amp produces an output voltage that
is typically hundreds of thousands times larger than the voltage difference between its input
terminals.
Operational amplifiers had their origins in analog computers where they were used in many linear,
non-linear and frequency-dependent circuits. Characteristics of a circuit using an op-amp are set by
external components with little dependence on temperature changes or manufacturing variations in
the op-amp itself, which makes op-amps popular building blocks for circuit design.
Op-amps may be packaged as components, or used as elements of more complex integrated
circuits.
The op-amp is one type of differential amplifier. Other types of differential amplifier include
the fully differential amplifier (similar to the op-amp, but with two outputs), the instrumentation
amplifier (usually built from three op-amps), the isolation amplifier (similar to the instrumentation
amplifier, but with tolerance to common-mode voltages that would destroy an ordinary op-amp),
and negative feedback amplifier (usually built from one or more op-amps and a resistive feedback
network).
Circuit notation

3.5.2 Ideal op-amps
Fig. 3.10 An equivalent circuit of an operational amplifier that models some resistive non-
ideal parameters.
An ideal op-amp is usually considered to have the following properties, and they are considered to
hold for all input voltages:
Infinite open-loop gain (when doing theoretical analysis, a limit may be taken as open loop
gain AOL goes to infinity).
Infinite voltage range available at the output ( ) (in practice the voltages available from the
output are limited by the supply voltages and ). The power supply sources are called rails.
Infinite bandwidth (i.e., the frequency magnitude response is considered to be flat everywhere with
zero phase shift).
Infinite input impedance (so, in the diagram, , and zero current flows from to ).
Zero input current (i.e., there is assumed to be no leakage or bias current into the device).
Zero input offset voltage (i.e., when the input terminals are shorted so that , the output is
a virtual ground or ).
Infinite slew rate (i.e., the rate of change of the output voltage is unbounded) and power bandwidth
(full output voltage and current available at all frequencies).
Zero output impedance (i.e., , so that output voltage does not vary with output current).
Zero noise.
Infinite Common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR).
Infinite Power supply rejection ratio for both power supply rails.

4. RECEIVER SECTION
4.1 Crystal Oscillator
A crystal oscillator is an electronic circuit that uses the mechanical resonance of a vibrating crystal
of piezoelectric material to create an electrical signal with a very precise frequency. This frequency
is commonly used to keep track of time, to provide a stable clock signal for digital integrated
circuits, and to stabilize frequencies for radio transmitters.
Piezoelectricity was discovered by Jacques and Pierre Curie in 1880. Paul Langevin first
investigated quartz resonators for use in sonar during World War I. The first crystal controlled
oscillator, using a crystal of Rochelle salt, was built in 1917 and patented in 1918 by Alexander M.
Nicholson at Bell Telephone Laboratories, although his priority was disputed by Walter Guyton
Cady. Cady built the first quartz crystal oscillator in 1921
Fig. 4.0 Crystal Oscillator
A crystal is a solid in which the constituent atoms, molecules, or ions are packed in a regularly
ordered, repeating pattern extending in all three spatial dimensions.
Almost any object made of an elastic material could be used like a crystal, with appropriate
transducers, since all objects have natural resonant frequencies of vibration. For example, steel is
very elastic and has a high speed of sound. It was often used in mechanical filters before quartz.
The resonant frequency depends on size, shape, elasticity, and the speed of sound in the material.
High-frequency crystals are typically cut in the shape of a simple, rectangular plate. Low-frequency
34
crystals, such as those used in digital watches, are typically cut in the shape of a tuning fork. For
applications not needing very precise timing, a low-cost ceramic resonator is often used in place of
a quartz crystal.
When a crystal of quartz is properly cut and mounted, it can be made to distort in an electric field
by applying a voltage to an electrode near or on the crystal. This property is known as
piezoelectricity. When the field is removed, the quartz will generate an electric field as it returns to
its previous shape, and this can generate a voltage. The result is that a quartz crystal behaves like a
circuit composed of an inductor, capacitor and resistor, with a precise resonant frequency.
Quartz has the further advantage that its elastic constants and its size change in such a way that the
frequency dependence on temperature can be very low. The specific characteristics will depend on
the mode of vibration and the angle at which the quartz is cut (relative to its crystallographic axes) .
Therefore, the resonant frequency of the plate, which depends on its size, will not change much,
either. This means that a quartz clock, filter or oscillator will remain accurate. For critical
applications the quartz oscillator is mounted in a temperature-controlled container, called a crystal
oven, and can also be mounted on shock absorbers to prevent perturbation by external mechanical
vibrations.
Quartz timing crystals are manufactured for frequencies from a few tens of kilohertz to tens of
megahertz. More than two billion (2×109) crystals are manufactured annually. Most are small
devices for consumer devices such as wristwatches, clocks, radios, computers, and cellophanes.
Quartz crystals are also found inside test and measurement equipment, such as counters, signal
generators, and oscilloscopes.
4.2 Microcontroller
35
The 8051 family of microcontrollers is based on an architecture which is highly optimized for
embedded control systems. It is used in a wide variety of applications from military equipment to
automobiles to the keyboard. Second only to the Motorola 68HC11 in eight bit processors sales, the
8051 family of microcontrollers is available in a wide array of variations from manufacturers such
as Intel, Philips, and Siemens. These manufacturers have added numerous features and peripherals
to the 8051 such as I2C interfaces, analog to digital converters, watchdog timers, and pulse width
modulated outputs. Variations of the 8051 with clock speeds up to 40MHz and voltage
requirements down to 1.5 volts are available. This wide range of parts based on one core makes the
8051 family an excellent choice as the base architecture for a company's entire line of products
since it can perform many functions and developers will only have to learn this one platform. The
AT89S52 is a low-power, high-performance CMOS 8-bit microcontroller with 8K bytes of in-
system programmable Flash memory. The device is manufactured using Atmel’s high-density
nonvolatile memory technology and is compatible with the industrystandard
80C51 instruction set and pin out. The on-chip Flash allows the program memory to be
reprogrammed in-system or by a conventional nonvolatile memory programmer. By combining a
versatile 8-bit CPU with in-system programmable Flash on a monolithic chip, the Atmel AT89S52
is a powerful microcontroller which provides a highly-flexible and cost effective solution to many
embedded control applications. In addition, the AT89S52 is designed with static logic for operation
down to zero frequency and supports two software selectable power saving modes. The Idle Mode
stops the CPU while allowing the RAM, timer/counters, serial port, and interrupt system to
continue functioning. The Power-down mode saves the RAM con-tents but freezes the oscillator,
disabling all other chip functions until the next interrupt or hardware reset.
Fig. 4.1 Microcontroller
4.3 Display section
36
The display section consists of 16*2 LCD, which used to display Summary of IC being Inserted
and result of test being conducted.
LCDs can add a lot to your application in terms of providing an useful interface for the user,
debugging an application or just giving it a "professional" look. The most common type of LCD
controller is the Hitatchi 44780 which provides a relatively simple interface between a processor
and an LCD.
Fig. 4.2 LCD
The LCD interface is a parallel bus, allowing simple and fast reading/writing of data to and from
the LCD. This waveform will write an ASCII Byte out to the LCD's screen. The ASCII code to be
displayed is eight bits long and is sent to the LCD either four or eight bits at a time. If four bit mode
is used, two "nybbles" of data (Sent high four bits and then low four bits with an "E" Clock pulse
with each nybble) are sent to make up a full eight bit transfer. The "E" Clock is used to initiate the
data transfer within the LCD.
Sending parallel data as either four or eight bits are the two primary modes of operation. While
there are secondary considerations and modes, deciding how to send the data to the LCD is most
critical decision to be made for an LCD interface application. Eight bit mode is best used when
speed is required in an application and at least ten I/O pins are available. Four bit mode requires a
minimum of six bits. To wire a microcontroller to an LCD in four bit mode, just the top four bits
(DB4-7) are written to. The "R/S" bit is used to select whether data or an instruction is being
transferred between the microcontroller and the LCD. If the Bit is set, then the byte at the current
LCD "Cursor" Position can be read or written.

4.6 INTEGRATED CIRCUIT
Integrated circuits were made possible by experimental discoveries which showed that
semiconductor devices could perform the functions of vacuum tubes, and by mid-20th-century
40
technology advancements in semiconductor device fabrication. The integration of large numbers of
tiny transistors into a small chip was an enormous improvement over the manual assembly of
circuits using discrete electronic components. The integrated circuit's mass production capability,
reliability, and building-block approach to circuit design ensured the rapid adoption of
standardized ICs in place of designs using discrete transistors.
Fig.4.4 ICs
There are two main advantages of ICs over discrete circuits: cost and performance. Cost is low
because the chips, with all their components, are printed as a unit by photolithography and not
constructed a transistor at a time. Performance is high since the components switch quickly and
consume little power, because the components are small and close together. As of 2006, chip areas
range from a few square mm to around 350 mm2, with up to 1 million transistors per mm2.

DEVELOPMENT AND ANALYSIS OF THE PROJECT
5.1 Functional Description
5.1.1 Tsunami generated by seismicity
Tsunami can be generated when the sea floor abruptly deforms and vertically displaces the
overlying water. Tectonic earthquakes are a particular kind of earthquake that are associated with
the Earth's crustal deformation; when these earthquakes occur beneath the sea, the water above the
deformed area is displaced from its equilibrium position.[19] More specifically, a tsunami can be
generated when thrust faults associated with convergent or destructive plate boundaries move
abruptly, resulting in water displacement, owing to the vertical component of movement involved.
Movement on normal faults will also cause displacement of the seabed, but the size of the largest of
such events is normally too small to give rise to a significant tsunami.

5.2 SOLDER
5.2.1 Procedure of Making ProjectBuilding project in the proper manner is really an art, something which must be practiced and learned through trial and error, it is not all that difficult. The main thing is to remember to take each step slowly and carefully according to the instructions giving making since that everything at it should be before proceeding further.
5.2.2 Tools: The electronics workbench is an actual place of work with comfortably & conveniently & should be supplied with compliment of those tools must often use in project building. Probably the most important device is a soldering tool. Other tool which should be at the electronic work bench includes a pair of needle nose pliers, diagonal wire cutter, a small knife, an assortment of screw driver, nut driver, few nuts & bolts, electrical tape, plucker etc. Diagonal wire cutter will be used to cut away any excess lead length from copper side of P.C.B. 7 to cut section of the board after the circuit is complete. The needle nose pliers are most often using to bend wire leads & wrap them in order to form a strong mechanical connection.

5.2.3 Mounting & Soldering: Soldering is process of joining together two metallic parts. It is actually a process of function in which an alloy, the solder, with a comparatively low melting point penetrates the surface of the metal being joined & makes a firm joint between them on cooling & solidifying.
Fig 5.2 Solder Mounting
5.2.4 The Soldering Kit5.2.4.1 Soldering Iron:As soldering is a process of joining together two metallic parts, the instrument, which is used, for doing this job is known as soldering Iron. Thus it is meant for melting the solder and to setup the metal parts being joined. Soldering Iron is rated according to their wattage, which varies from 10- 200 watts.5.2.4.2 Solder:The raw material used for soldering is solder. It is composition of lead & tin. The good quality solder (a type of flexible naked wire) is 60% Tin +40% Lead which will melt between 180 degree to 200 degree C temperature.5.2.4.3 Fluxes or soldering paste:When the points to solder are heated an oxide film forms. This must be removed at once so that solder may get to the surface of the metal parts. This is done by applying chemical substance called Flux, which boils under the heat of the iron remove the oxide formation and enable the metal to receive the solder.5.2.4.4 Blades or knife:To clean the surface & leads of components to be soldered is done by this common instrument.

6.1 Warnings and Predictions
Drawbacks can serve as a brief warning. People who observe drawback (many survivors report an
accompanying sucking sound), can survive only if they immediately run for high ground or seek the
upper floors of nearby buildings. In 2004, ten-year old Tilly Smith of Surrey, England, was
on Maikhao beach in Phuket, Thailand with her parents and sister, and having learned about
tsunamis recently in school, told her family that a tsunami might be imminent. Her parents warned
others minutes before the wave arrived, saving dozens of lives. She credited her geography teacher,
Andrew Kearney.
In the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami drawback was not reported on the African coast or any other
east-facing coasts that it reached. This was because the wave moved downwards on the eastern side
of the fault line and upwards on the western side. The western pulse hit coastal Africa and other
western areas.
A tsunami cannot be precisely predicted, even if the magnitude and location of an earthquake is
known. Geologists, oceanographers, and seismologists analyse each earthquake and based on many
factors may or may not issue a tsunami warning. However, there are some warning signs of an
impending tsunami, and automated systems can provide warnings immediately after an earthquake
in time to save lives. One of the most successful systems uses bottom pressure sensors, attached to
buoys, which constantly monitor the pressure of the overlying water column.
Regions with a high tsunami risk typically use tsunami warning systems to warn the population
before the wave reaches land. On the west coast of the United States, which is prone to Pacific
Ocean tsunami, warning signs indicate evacuation routes. In Japan, the community is well-educated
about earthquakes and tsunamis, and along the Japanese shorelines the tsunami warning signs are 51
reminders of the natural hazards together with a network of warning sirens, typically at the top of
the cliff of surroundings hills.[28]
The Pacific Tsunami Warning System is based in Honolulu, Hawaiʻi. It monitors Pacific Ocean
seismic activity. A sufficiently large earthquake magnitude and other information triggers a tsunami
warning. While the subduction zones around the Pacific are seismically active, not all earthquakes
generate tsunami. Computers assist in analyzing the tsunami risk of every earthquake that occurs in
the Pacific Ocean and the adjoining land masses.

6.2 Advantages & Future Scope The instrument is used basically to predict the strength of the earthquake so that the people can
make aware of the danger prior the happening. These small units are placed at various earthquake
epicenters and coastal areas and can be monitored by using a central monopolized system. It can
also detect the areas which are more prone to volcanoes. It can also guide the ships by detecting in
which direction or areas of the ocean larger waves are created. Using central monitories system we
can keep eye on various other branches where the instrument is placed. It can further processed to
alarming circuits such as siren, indicators etc. For further processing the output data can be
transmitted to the satellite for transmission of data over a long distance It is somewhat affordable by
states and nation and can be implemented easily as it is less complex as compared to other large
instruments Tsunami / earthquake detector used to improve tsunami detection, forecasting, warning,
notification, preparedness and mitigation to protect life and property in the region. The project is
low cost and simple for the advanced high quality system one need to improve the sensor quality
while the cost is also
proportionally increases. This instrument is unable to place under see water while the data collected
from the see water can be connected to the system for further processing.

6.3 Conclusion & Future Enhancements
Overall, the result indicates the ability for an evolution of a system which can detect Tsunami in
advance based on the pressure changes under the sea. If, it is being practically implemented with
the future enhancement any natural disaster can be detected in advance without producing false
alarms. Existing system has all the facilities to detect Tsunami. Obviously it will detect Tsunami
before many hours which are going to occur by raising an alarm. But, the problem with the existing
system is, there is a chance to produce false alarms often which threatens our government and
public. So, in future Tsunami occurrence can be decided and alarm can be raised only after
checking many criteria. Four criteria to be checked out are as follows:
• Pressure inside the sea bed.
• Tide level.
• Biological changes in the marine living organisms.
• Sea shore level.
If all these four criteria get detected then it can be concluded that there is some occurrence of
natural disaster (Tsunami).
Independently it is concluded that the magnitude of the printer vibration is more as
compare to the mobile phone and landline phone. This system can further improved by adding
better quality of the sensor. Also by making the system wireless we can able to use the system at
remote location. The maximum advantages given in previous subtopics are based on the wireless
system. With the Tsunami Alarm System we will be able to live at the
Sea or visit our favorite coastal destinations, without worrying about our safety. We need to
subscribe to the Tsunami-AS and we will receive these life-saving alarms reliably and timorously
on our mobile. Telephone wherever we have GSM coverage in the world.
This tsunami alarm system to mobile is an effective means to protect the health and lives of families
and children .This is a promising attempt for the world to move ahead with new and bright hopes
into the future.
