The invention provides a subway
fire escape system and method based on a real-time sensor monitoring network. The subway
fire escape system comprises a monitoring device, a control center, a mobile terminal with an
inertial navigation system and a
wireless transmitting
system and an AP cluster, wherein the monitoring device, the control center and the mobile terminal can exchange data with each other through a
WIFI network composed of the AP cluster. The monitoring device further comprises a fire situation monitoring device and a
pedestrian counting device, wherein a monitoring range of the fire situation monitoring device can cover the whole
subway station, the fire situation monitoring device is mainly used for monitoring whether fire happens in the
subway station, a monitoring range of the
pedestrian counting device covers entrances, exits,
stairs and corners where passengers must pass by, and the
pedestrian counting device is used for counting pedestrians and judging the
route jam situation. The subway
fire escape system can provide a practical solution for passengers in the
subway station when fire happens, improves the
fire evacuation efficiency and further reduces casualties.
