A comprehensive survey on several fire management approaches in wireless sensor networks

Abstract

The majority of the fires are activated through environmental reasons although a minority of them are self-activated. To detect fires several safety systems were introduced. There are wired systems, cameras, satellite systems, and bluetooth feasible to provide a complete image of the world but after a long search period. These systems are not perfect since it prevents fire from finding just at the time, the fire initiates. But, recent technological development in wireless sensor networks (WSN) has spread out its fire detection application. A comprehensive survey on several fire management approaches in WSN propose to discuss various fire detection approaches like early fire detection, energy efficient fire detection, mobile agent-based fire detection, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-based fire detection, threshold-based fire detection, machine learning based fire detection and secure fire detection approaches. Moreover, the comprehensive tabular study of the fire management technique is given that will assist in the suitable selection of approaches to be applied for the detection of fire. Furthermore, WSN uses the clustering method to minimize redundant dataandsecure fire detection approaches collect authenticated data related to fire detection. Early fire detection approaches detects the fire early. Machine learning algorithm detects the fire efficiently.
