AN INTELLIGENT EXPLOSIVE TRACE REVELATION SYSTEM TO COMBAT TERRORISM

摘要

Terrorism has become a big national and international problem all over the world. It is a global issue which has affected almost all the nations throughout the world directly or indirectly. The tactics of terrorism are diverse - bombing being the most sought after one. Globalization has led to the relatively easy access to the chemicals used to make explosives used for bombs, the firepower of terrorists. These bombs may be implanted in automobiles to make a car bomb, planted on the roadside to detonate near target vehicles, or even strapped to the bodies of individuals for suicide attacks. This invention aims at creation of a novel mechanism for explosive trace revelation in any inhabited area by integrating a sensor based intelligent system known as Explosive Trace Revelation System (ETRS) with the mobile phones to detect explosives and communicate the alert information to the respective service provider in a secured manner by using either overlay or underlay mode of cognitive radio sensor node (CSRN) that acts as secondary user (SU) by utilizing the licensed cellular mobile radio signal spectrum without disturbing the normal communication of the cellular mobile user (primary user) and without the knowledge of the user to avoid human chaos. On receiving the emergency information, the service provider stores the location of the user and in turn alerts the law and enforcement agency or Police to combat terrorism. This system promises to guarantee common men, local population and above all the nation a safe surrounding, without distressing their freedom of movement. A standard called Explosive Tracing Mobile Technology Directive (ETMTD) along with the mentioned system enforces the communication without intervention of the user as well as the service provider.
