Abstract:
 Soldier is always facing death. He never
shirks responsibility.
 He fights in most difficult terrains, on hills
and mountain, in plains and forest.
 The defense of the country is his primary
mission.
 The role of soldier in safeguarding the
frontiers of his modest land is unique. He
lives and dies for the NATION. It is our
responsibility to help our soldier.

Existing system:(ZigBee)
• A wireless technological device which is popular for
extremely low power, and low bit rate ireless PAN technology
called “zigBee”.
• Based on the IEEE 802.15.4 standard.
• It can provide the wireless personal area network.
• The number of routers ,coordinators and end devices depends
on the type of network such as Star ,Mesh Topology.
• ZigBee network can support a larger number of devices and a
longer range between devices than Bluetooth.

Cntd..,
It is low power and low data rate wireless
system.
Operates in three bands 2.4 GHz, 868 MHz
and 915 MHz
 Coverage: 10 meters.
 Data rates : 250 Kbps, 40 Kbps and 20 Kbps
as per bands

Drawbacks of existing system:
 It requires knowledge of the system for the owner to
operate zigBee compliant devices.
 It is not secure like wifi based secured system.
 Replacement cost will be high when any problem
occurs in zigBee compliant home appliances.
 The coverage is limited.

Proposed system:
 In our system we are
basically focusing on
Soldier’s health in terms of
his heartbeats and his body
temperature.
 If soldier gets injured and
becomes unconscious by
gunshot or due to any other
reason, then his heart beats
start increasing or
decreasing gradually.

Hardware requirements:
 ARDUINO UNO
 Heart Beat Sensor
 Temperature Sensor
 GSM Modem
 GPS Modem
 LCD Display
 Power Supply
 Miscellaneous Components

Arduino Controller:
 The Arduino Uno is a
microcontroller board
based on the ATmega328.
 It has 14 digital
input/output pins (of which
6 can be used as PWM
outputs), 6 analog inputs, a
16 MHz ceramic resonator,
a USB connection, a power
jack, an ICSP header, and a
reset button.

Specifications:
 DC Current per I/O Pin :40 mA
 DC Current for 3.3V Pin :50 mA
 Flash Memory 32 KB (ATmega328) of which 0.5 KB
used by bootloader
 SRAM 2 KB (ATmega328)
 EEPROM 1 KB (ATmega328)
 Clock Speed 16 MHz

Heart beat sensor:
 The Heart Rate Ear clip kit
contains a ear clip and a
receiver module.
 The heart rate measure kit
can be used to monitor
heart rate of patient and
athlete.
 The result can be
displayed on a screen via
the serial port and can be
saved for analysis.

Temperature sensor:
 The Temperature can be
detected with the help of a
temperature sensor LM35.
 The LM series are
precision integrated
circuit temperature
sensors, whose output
voltage is linearly
proportional to the
Celsius (Centigrade)
temperature.

GSM Module:
 It is a digital cellular technology
used for transmitting mobile
voice and data services.
 GSM is the most widely accepted
standard in telecommunications
and it is implemented globally.
 GSM operates on the mobile
communication bands 900 MHz
and 1800 MHz in most parts of
the world.

GPS Module:
 Global Positioning System (GPS)
is a satellite-based system that
uses satellites and ground
stations to measure and compute
its position on Earth.
 GPS is also known as Navigation
System with Time and Ranging
(NAVSTAR) GPS.
 GPS receiver needs to receive
data from at least 4 satellites for
accuracy purpose.

LCD:
 A liquid crystal display
(LCD) is a thin, flat
display device made up of
any number of color or
monochrome pixels
arrayed in front of a light
source or reflector.
 Output device to display
the output.
 It is a 16 pin IC.
 It display’s only 32-
characters.

Danger switch:
 It most commonly consists of
a number of switches or
sensors connected to a
control unit that determines if
and which button was pushed
or a preset time has lapsed.
 Usually illuminates a light on
the appropriate button or
control panel, and sounds a
warning in the form of a
continuous or intermittent
buzzing or beeping sound.

Power supply:

Software requirement:
 Keil compiler
 C language

Keil compiler:
 Keil MicroVision is an integrated development
environment used to create software to be run on
embedded systems (like a microcontroller).
 It allows for such software to be written either in
assembly or C programming
 languages and for that software to be simulated on a
computer before being loaded onto the
microcontroller.

C Language:
 C is a general-purpose, procedural, imperative
computer programming language
 Developed in 1972 by Dennis M. Ritchie at the Bell
Telephone Laboratories to develop the UNIX
operating system.
 Advantages:
1.Easy to learn
2.It produces efficient programs
3.It can be compiled on a variety of computer
platforms

Advantages:
 Sophisticated Security.
 No Need to go on field.
 Higher Reliability.
 Cost effective.
 Fast & efficient.
 Mobile number can be changed at any time.
 Alert message to mobile phone for remote
information.

Disadvantage:
• In some places where there is no provision of
GSM networks it is difficult for
communication.

Future scope:
• This can also be developed by inter connecting
a camera to the controller module that takes
the photograph of the accident spot that makes
the Tracking easier.

Conclusion:
Above system when completed would
help in determining health status of soldier with measures of
heart beats and body temperature. It would also help in tracking
his position by using GPS modem and with GSM modem it can
send all information to base station so that further necessary
action could be taken.
