Combined configuration of a free-field sensor, a structural sensor, a deep-well seismograph, and a remote signal source, and its earthquake detecting system
An earthquake detection system is disclosed. The earthquake detection system includes a main sensor, a first backup sensor, a second backup sensor and a third backup sensor. The main sensor is disposed on a free field. The first backup sensor is disposed on a structure. The second backup sensor is disposed below a ground surface at a depth of at least 20 meters. The third backup sensor is disposed at a remote end relative to the main sensor, and outputs a remote signal through a network so as to avoid misjudging the occurrence of earthquakes because of unnatural factors, and prevent the vibration caused by human activities from interfering with the detector. The earthquake detection system achieves the effect of verification through a plurality of sensors installed in different positions. Only when all the sensors confirm that there is an earthquake, an earthquake warning will be issued to the protected place.
