Abstract

This paper describes the fall detection algorithm for wireless excavator control system. During the using the it, user’s unintentional fall cause the serious and sick problem such as overturned excavator and excavator failure. The distinguish of fall and fall-like activities is very difficult on practice environment. The adaptive band pass filter mechanism is very useful to determine the fall detection and to distinguish the state of excavator control system. Our algorithm reduce both false detection rate while improving fall detection accuracy. In addition, our solution features low computational cost and real time response. Thus most system will be equipped easy.
