Abstract— This paper introduces a design which deals with an
innovative handheld device which would transform the
fisherman community as the eyes and ears of the Indian
Coastguard. Upon sighting an intruder or poacher, the device
allows fisherman to calculate its exact location using the
integrated GPS receiver, and radiates the information to the
nearest coastguard station via GSM communication. The
coastguard is then able to dispatch a patrol boat to intercept the
intruder. The device would also warns the fisherman (beep and
vibrate) when they approach near the national sea border and
controls them to trawl (go fishing) within the correct region
safely. Community surveillance allows the coastguard to patrol
efficiently because they could go only on an alert call and not to
patrol at random.

I.INTRODUCTION
The Indian Coastguard was formally inaugurated on 18
august 1978. It is set as an independent armed force of the Indian
Union, through an act of parliament. It is the fourth armed force
under the Ministry of Defence- the first three being the Army, the
Navy and the Air Force. It has a specific character for non-
military security but addresses to National Defence. It normally
deal with marine safety, maritime security, lifesaving, law
enforcement, maritime environmental security and fisheries.
These call for monitoring, control, surveillance and response. The
Coastguard has multiple responsibilities and strengthening the
safety of fishers. Fishers are vulnerable to disasters of several
kind-accidents, casualties, abduction, and alien interventions. The
Indian coastguard cannot assist fishers exclusively but concern for
fishers is central to its aims.
The strategic role of the Coastguard is to protect the
maritime zones from illegal activities including infiltration
through maritime routes and environmental damage and provide
humanitarian and scientific assistance within the maritime
domain.
The Indian Coastguard too has its exclusive duties and
functions as spelled out in the Coastguard Act 1978, include
 Safety and protection of islands and offshore structure
 Protection and preservation of maritime environment and
endangered species
 Prevention and control of pollution in maritime zone
 Assistance to the customs in anti-smuggling operations
 Assistance to fisherman in distress at sea
 Safeguarding life and property at sea
 Preventing poaching in Indian water
 Assisting in ocean research
 Enforcing maritime law
Even though we have this much of coastguard security, all
things happening opposite to our thinking. Indian Coastguard has
openly admitted its failure in failure in preventing Mumbai attack
even after getting a warning from intelligence sources prior to the
attack. This clearly shows that our sea defence is weaker than we
believe. The foreign trawler easily overcoming our coastguard
security force.
Every day we hearing news about fishermen killed or
imprisoned when they cross the national sea border inadvertently.
The most outstanding problem is being going on for transborder
fishing i.e., on the Indo-Srilankan border. Here two distinct issues
are arising. First is the movement of Indian boats into Srilankan
water without any intimation or prior information that they
crossed the border area. Historically there is no border problem
which is being raised and fixed in 1974 and having no conflicts
till civil war in 1983. After this both country authorities restricted
due to security concern. After that restriction also, smaller scale
fisherman undergo for fishing and get attacked. In India, they
have always been at loggerheads with the trawls fleet. So going

beyond that limit to catch fish is being done by our fisher and got
the punishment either death or severe injuries.
Also when fishermen sight a foreign trawler poaching in their
fishing grounds, they watch helplessly, sometimes trying to fight
resulting in injuries and death. The trawler would often leave
without fear of penalty. Poaching is getting a serious problem
since this would cause environmental crisis in coastal zones.
This all happening in governance of our coastguard force only.
Daily we get news about the happenings being going on in coastal
areas. Many fishermen get injuries and even to death only
because of the insecurity. Proper steps should be taken out in
favour of our fishermen to have independent freedom with prior
security to protect them.
Here many effective measures can be taken out to reduce
these accidents. Most effective solution would be to reduce the
trawler fleet on the Indian Side. This can be done easily now. We
are going to design a new device that would help to remove all
these problems.
We expect our device with GPS tracking and our concept of
GSM-assisted community patrols will prove successful in India
and elsewhere in the world. We are sure that this technology will
benefit the poor fishermen and protect the coastal environment.
The safety being carried out by this device will take out a
good name for the Indian Coastguard. They can easily overcome
the problems that they are facing now-a-days. Everyone fingering
Indian Coastguard force whenever some problems happen. So to
overcome and protect everyone without any harm, this device is
very helpful.
II. EXISTING SYSTEM
Initially the utility of wireless networks for any applications
is increased if the locations of the nodes in the networks can be
tracked based on the measurements between communicating
nodes. Thus for many applications, such as tracking fire fighters
in large buildings, require the deployment of mobile ad-hoc
networks.
Wireless networks are ubiquitous and utilized for a wide
range of applications, and for many applications, it is valuable to
know the locations of nodes. In sensor network deployments,
sensor data needs to be tagged with sensor location. “Cost and
power restrictions, however, often prevent the use of satellite
based systems such as the Global Position System (GPS) to locate
the nodes”. Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETS) can be
deployed for providing communication to fire fighters in building
or to miners in underground mines. “Cooperative Localization” is
a relatively recent concept that attempts to measure the range
between mobile nodes in addition to the measurements between
mobile and anchor nodes. The challenge in cooperative
localization is that a mobile node can be multiple hops away from
most or all of the anchor nodes and hence, they cannot be
localized using single hop localization algorithms.
Figure 1 shows a sample diagram indicating the mechanism
occurring for cooperative tracking held with the help of anchor
nodes indicated by Star “*”, and mobile nodes indicated by “o”.
The mobile nodes are communicated with the satellite
through the connection held between mobile nodes and anchor
nodes. With the communication between these two nodes, the
position is being tracked and localized.
Fig.1. A motivating scenario for cooperative tracking (
Denotes Anchor node and o denotes mobile nodes)
So the use of GPS is not possible, since it is not available in
these environments. So the tracking gets lack without the
presence of GPS. Cooperative Localization gets failure in
communicating the anchor and mobile nodes in order of time
domain. Satellite view is the only option for the coastguard
station. They view overall through the information send by the
satellite.
No preliminary alert is there to avoid the problem. Only after
the occurrence, the recovery force is being sended off. Many
live’s has been ended up by this way.

Community surveillance allows the coastguard to patrol at any
call or problem occurrence only. Only the position data can be
provided by the module.
There is no accurate direction sensing. It senses through earth
magnetic field which indicates the directions in only one
direction.
III. PROPOSED SYSTEM
The proposed method has the following steps to be followed
as in the block diagram as shown in fig.2
Fig.2. Block diagram
GPS Coastguard is used to alert the coastguard when an
intruder or poacher is found within the protected sea water using
an innovative technology. It also warns and prevents the
fishermen in not crossing the national sea border.
Here according to the diagram above, the operation is being done
with the help of two satellites region:-
(i) Communication Satellite
(ii) Global Positioning Satellite
Through these two satellites, the operation of the system is
done. Here we are taking an innovative handheld device which
would transform the fisherman community as the eyes and ears of
Indian Coastguard. Upon sighting an intruder or poacher,
 The device allows fishermen to calculate its exact
location using location using the integrated “GPS
receiver”, and
 Radio the information to the nearest coastguard station
via “GSM communication”.
The coastguard is then able to dispatch a patrol boat to
intercept the intruder. The device would also warn the fishermen
(beep and vibrate) when they approach near the National sea
border and controls them to trawl (go fishing) within the correct
region safely.
Community surveillance allows the coastguard to patrol
efficiently because they could go only on an alert call and not to
patrol at random.
Working:-
 Upon sighting an intruder or poacher, the fisherman
enters the distance and direction of intrusion using the
GUI interface displayed on the TFT Touchscreen
Display.
 The intruder position is calculated by combining this
data with the known position of the fishermen device
using the integrated GPS receiver.
 The resulting intrusion location (approximate) will be
sent to the nearest coastguard station via GSM
communication. The coastguard could then be able to
dispatch a patrol boat to intercept the intruder.
 The device warns the fishermen (beep and vibrate) when
they approach near the National sea border and controls
them to trawl (go fishing) within the correct region
safely.

 This involves monitoring boat location using GPS and
the boat direction using a Digital MEMS Compass
Module. If they cross the sea border, it will send a
notification SMS using GSM to the coastguard and
fishermen authority.
Peripheral description:-
 LPC1114 is a 32-bit ARM Cortex-MO microcontroller
from NxP semiconductors.
 Touchscreen TFT Display with 320*240 resolution and
65k colors acts as the GUI interface.
 GPS module for location tracking and GSM module for
sending intruder alert SMS.
 A 6-DOF MEMS Compass that is a combination of 3-
axis MEMS accelerometer and a 3-axis MEMS
magnetometer is used to find the direction of travel of
the fisherman boat/ship.
 A Piezo-buzzer and Vibrating motor to warn the
fishermen while approaching borders.
IV.CONCLUSION
GPS Coastguard is used to alert the coastguard when an
intruder or poacher is found within the protected sea water area
using an innovative technology. It also warns and prevents the
fishermen in not crossing the National sea border.
This approach describes the intruder positioning is being
implemented with the help of GPS by integrating the code given
by it and the code generated in ARM microcontroller through
timer.

Working:-  Upon sighting an intruder or poacher, the fisherman enters the distance and direction of intrusion using the GUI interface displayed on the TFT Touchscreen Display.  The intruder position is calculated by combining this data with the known position of the fishermen device using the integrated GPS receiver.  The resulting intrusion location (approximate) will be sent to the nearest coastguard station via GSM communication. The coastguard could then be able to dispatch a patrol boat to intercept the intruder.  The device warns the fishermen (beep and vibrate) when they approach near the National sea border and controls them to trawl (go fishing) within the correct region safely.

If they cross the sea border, it will send a notification SMS using GSM to the coastguard and fishermen authority. Peripheral description:-  LPC1114 is a 32-bit ARM Cortex-MO microcontroller from NxP semiconductors.  Touchscreen TFT Display with 320*240 resolution and 65k colors acts as the GUI interface.  GPS module for location tracking and GSM module for sending intruder alert SMS.  A 6-DOF MEMS Compass that is a combination of 3- axis MEMS accelerometer and a 3-axis MEMS magnetometer is used to find the direction of travel of the fisherman boat/ship.  A Piezo-buzzer and Vibrating motor to warn the fishermen while approaching borders. IV.CONCLUSION GPS Coastguard is used to alert the coastguard when an intruder or poacher is found within the protected sea water area using an innovative technology. It also warns and prevents the fishermen in not crossing the National sea border. This approach describes the intruder positioning is being implemented with the help of GPS by integrating the code given by it and the code generated in ARM microcontroller through timer. V.
