Abstract

With the economic crisis going around the world, a new approach, “build back better”, has been adopted as a recovery package for various systems. The tsunami detection and warning system is one such system, crucial for saving human lives and infrastructure. While designing a tsunami detection system, the social, economic, and geographical circumstances are considered to be vital. This research is focused on designing a low-cost early warning system mainly for underdeveloped countries, which are more prone to tsunami damage due to a lack of any reliable early warning and detection systems. Such countries require proper cost-effective solutions to address these issues. Previous research has shown that the existing systems are either very costly or hard to implement and manage. In this study, we present a wireless sensor networking model, which is an optimized model in terms of cost, delay, and energy consumption. This research contemplates the techniques and advantages of the intelligence of marine animals. We propose a fuzzy logic-based approach for early tsunami detection, using electromagnetic and pressure sensors, based on the behavioral attributes of turtles and real-time values of earthquakes and water levels.
