ABSTRACT: -
damage can be minimized and lives can be saved if the people living in the earth quake-
prone area are already prepared to survive the strike. This requires a warning before the
strong ground motion from the earthquake arrives. Such a warning system is possible
because the energy wave released at the epicenter travels slower (at 3.5 to 8km/s) than
network, pager service, cellphone service or a combination of these. The satellite based
wireless network such as ISS is idle if system has to cover a large continent like ASIA.
The credential part of the paper lies in the applications
part where the applications of ISS as an alert system for “EARTHQUAKE and
TSUNAMI” like natural disasters with which the casualties can be reduced drastically.
system using the ISS network spread throughout the earth is proposed here.
This paper unleashes the system facts such as the network architecture and
coverage, satellite constellation, Frequency plan and modulation of ISS system and its
operation along with its advantages and applications. Last but not least, the innovative
this system caller can call to any person, anywhere at any time in the world.
switched telephone network and global roaming feature is designed in to the system.
Operation: The 66-vehicle LEO inter-linked satellite constellation can track the
location of a subscriber’s telephone handset, determine the best routing through a network
of ground-based gateways and inter-satellite links, establish the best path for the
telephone call, Initiate all the necessary connections, and terminate the call upon
Its main intention is to provide the best service in the telephone world,
allowing telecommunication anywhere, any time, and any place Each satellite is cross-linked
to four other satellites; two satellites in the same orbital plane and two in an adjacent plane
To relay digital information around the globe. Feeder link antennas relay information to the
terrestrial gateways and the system control segment located at earth stations
spares orbiting in a constellation of six polar planes. Each plane has 11 mission satellites
performing as nodes in the telephony network. The 14 additional satellites orbit as spares
ready to replace any unserviceable satellite. This constellation ensures that every region
420 miles above earth in six nearly polar orbital times of 100 min 28 sec. The first and
last planes rotate in opposite directions, creating a virtual beam. The co-rotating planes
are separated by 31.6 degrees and the beam planes are 22 degrees apart.
Each satellite is equipped with 3 L-band antennas forming a honeycomb pattern
that consists of 48 individual spot beams with a total of 1628 cells aimed directly below
the satellite. As the satellite moves in its orbit, the footprints move across earth’s surface
and subscriber signals are switched from one beam to the next or from one satellite to the
next in a handoff process. Each cell has 174 full duplex voice channels for a total of
that consists of 48 individual spot beams, with a total of 1628 cells aimed directly below
the satellite as shown in above figure each of the spot beam approximately measuring
quadrature phase shift keying and FEC1/2 rate convolutional coding with viterbi
decoding.
Using satellite cross links is the unique key to the iridium system and the
primary differentiation between iridium and the traditional satellite bent pipe system
With this system the subscriber will never listen a message called ”OUT

The block diagram shown here describes how the signal from
epicenter is detected and transduced by sensors and then transmitted to network or
SMS server through which the messege is transmitted to those areas where
earthquake is expected and again from mobile phones the signal is transmitted to
alarm units where the alarm rings indicating the problem that is going to occur.
