Abstract: False alarm often arises from the current debris flow infrasound alarms under the environmental noise interference; therefore, it cannot be put into practical application. To improve the accuracy of debris flow infrasound monitoring and warning, based on the principle of characteristics difference of infrasound signals generated from debris flow and environmental interference, combining microcontroller with upper computer, an efficient and reliable real-time debris flow early-warning system based on infrasonic monitoring is designed and realized by means of hybrid programming, database and secondary development of GIS, etc. The recognition performance of the system has been verified by long-term in-situ monitoring of debris flows in Jiangjia Gully, Dongchuan, China. The verified results show that the system not only has the characteristics of stable operation, timely response and real-time recognition, but also has high warning accuracy and low false alarm rate, during two years of field monitoring, there were only 18 false positives and none was missed.

Key words: debris flow, infrasound, interference noise, monitoring and warning, signal recognition
