TSUNAMI WARNING SYSTEM TO MOBILE PHONES
ABSTRACT The term tsunami originates from Japanese and means “harbour wave” .It is a series of waves when a body of water, such as an ocean is rapidly displaced on a massive scale. Tsunamis cannot be prevented or precisely predicted, but there are many systems being developed to warn and save the people of regions with a high risk of tsunamis before the wave reaches land.
Our paper focusses on the TSUNAMI WARNING SYSTEM TO MOBILE.

This system warns subscribers of an impending tsunami, wherever they are, via a mobile text message. The tsunami alarm system picks up seismic signals from global stations and consolidates the information. If there is a danger of a tsunami, an alarm is sent out to subscribers via an SMS. The Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) is the most popular standard used here for making calls such as text messaging. The ubiquity of the GSM standard makes international roaming very common between mobile phone operators, enabling subscribers to use their phones in many parts of the world. The paper discusses about the reception and consolidation of the relevant information of tsunami by the satellite and the way in which this information is transmitted by the satellite and received by the mobile .This system is an efficient and a promising attempt to minimize destructions and save the lives of millions of people around the world .
WHAT IS A TSUNAMI ? The term tsunami comes from the Japanese language Destructive Tsunami meaning harbour ("tsu") and wave ("nami"). The term was created by fishermen who returned to port to find the area surrounding their harbour devastated, although
