Forest Fire Detection through Wireless Sensor Network using Type-2 Fuzzy System

Abstract

Fire detection is always been a crucial challenge for human, moreover detecting fire using automated sensors definitely requires efficient and accurate ways. Since fire depends on more than one physical/environmental condition simultaneously, so in this paper we have used fuzzy type-2 logic for fire detection. Fuzzy gives best results in such cases because there is an uncertainty about how much extent of a factor like temperature, humidity and light intensity should be involved to cause a fire. In addition to this interval type-2 fuzzy system is used to make the results accurate and error free so that there would be no uncertainty in decision making.
