Abstract: For poor real-time communication, stability and anti electromagnetic interference performance of existing coal mine safety monitoring and control system, a digital coal mine safety monitoring and control system was proposed, and hardware scheme, software scheme and key technologies of the system were introduced. The system adopts dual redundancy structure of CAN bus and industrial Ethernet ring network, and takes LPC2294 ARM processor and μC/OS-Ⅱembedded operation system as cores. The test results show that communication success rate of CAN bus is 99.97% as well as utilization ratio is 40%-60% of the system with 10 km CAN bus, 32 digital substations and 200 sensors and actuators. The system can run 40 days continuously with stable data communication and without interrupted and abnormal data, and technique indexes of the system meet requirements of AQ 6201-2006 General technical requirements of coal mine safety monitoring and control system.
