Description

本発明は、行動域調査等に使用されるテレメトリ発信器の電波を利用することで、野生動物による、人への危害、農作物への被害を無くするという目的と合わせ、野生動物の保護をも可能とする装置、およびその装置の発する警報の活用方法に関する。その活用対象は、ニホンザル、シカ、クマ、イノシシなど鳥獣被害と呼ばれる対象野生動物である。 The present invention uses a radio wave of a telemetry transmitter used in a survey of the area of activity, etc., in addition to the purpose of eliminating harm to humans and damage to crops by wild animals, and also protects wild animals. The present invention relates to a device that can be used and a method for utilizing an alarm that is issued by the device. The target of utilization is target wild animals such as Japanese monkeys, deer, bears, wild boars and so on.

テレメトリ発信器に注目し、この発信する電波を受信して、相手の位置等を知ろうという受信装置は従来からあるが、その受信装置の利用は、行動域調査が主たる目的で、受信操作に熟練した人が受信に集中し、自分の足で野生動物に近づき、その動向を知ろうとするものであり、専門知識を持たない住民が、日頃の営みの中で鳥獣被害対策を目的に使用できるようなものではない。
特開２００４−０７３１１１号公報 There has been a conventional receiver that focuses on the telemetry transmitter and receives this transmitted radio wave to know the position of the other party. Skilled people concentrate on reception, approach wild animals with their feet, try to know the trends, and residents who do not have specialized knowledge can use it for the purpose of countermeasures against birds and beasts in their daily activities Not like that.

従来の鳥獣被害対策は駆除中心に行われていたが、その被害は年々増加し、一方では自然保護、種の保存という観点で保護対象とされる鳥獣類も多く、決定的な被害対策が見いだせずにいた。一部に、テレメトリ発信器を使用して、その発信電波を利用することで、その接近を知ろうとする受信機の利用もあったが、その受信機の利用については、ある程度の熟練、すなわち運用技術を必要とし、また常に受信状態を気にしていないとテレメトリ信号の受信に気づかないと言う問題があり、誰でもが有効に発信電波が利用できる状況ではなかった。テレメトリ発信器の電波受信に際しては、雑音などの影響も大きく、また住民が日頃の生活空間のなかで、接近を予知して対応できるほどの受信感度（感知距離）が得られていなかった。そして、接近を知ったときの対応も、行政窓口への連絡で終わってしまう場合がほとんどで、その場での対応がとられていない、すなわち野生動物の接近に対して即効的な対処ができていなかった。 Conventional measures against damage to birds and beasts have been focused on extermination, but the damage has been increasing year by year. On the other hand, there are many birds and animals that are protected from the viewpoint of nature conservation and species conservation. I was not there. Some receivers tried to know the approach by using a telemetry transmitter and using the transmitted radio wave, but there was some skill in using the receiver, that is, operation There is a problem that it requires technology and does not always notice the reception of the telemetry signal unless the reception state is taken care of. When receiving a radio wave from a telemetry transmitter, the influence of noise and the like was large, and the reception sensitivity (sensing distance) was not enough to predict the approach in the daily living space. And, in most cases, the response to knowing the approach ends with the contact with the administrative window, and the response on the spot is not taken, that is, the immediate approach to the approach of wild animals is possible. It wasn't.

テレメトリ発信器の発信する電波を利用し、野生動物の行動を把握するための受信・警報発報・動作記録を行う装置を設置する。 A device will be installed that uses the radio waves transmitted by the telemetry transmitter to receive, alert, and record actions to understand the behavior of wild animals.

設置に際しては、ソーラーパネルを利用した独立電源の採用により、例え商用電源が無くても運用を可能とする。 When installing, an independent power supply using solar panels can be used to enable operation even without a commercial power supply.

野生動物が接近してきた場合、タイムリーかつ効果的な追い払い行為が行えるように警報を発報する。 When wild animals approach, alerts are issued so that timely and effective evacuation can be performed.

野生動物に取り付けたテレメトリ発信器の信号を５００ｍ〜１Km（見通し距離）離れていても安定に受信し、その接近を音や回転灯の光等で住民に知らせ、組織的な追い払いを促す。 Receives signals from telemetry transmitters attached to wild animals even if they are 500m to 1km away (line-of-sight distance), and informs the residents of the approach with sound or light from a rotating light, etc.

そこに住む誰でもができる自己防除の実施、すなわち予知による追い払い行為により、人と野生動物との生活圏の棲み分け（住み分け）を行う。
上記 The self-control that anyone who lives there can carry out the segregation (living) of the living sphere of humans and wild animals by carrying out self-control, that is, the eviction action by prediction.

で述べた装置と手法を使うことで、鳥獣被害を無くすることが可能である。殺生など必要としないため、野生動物の保護も同時に行うことができ、従来相反すると思われていた鳥獣被害対策と野生動物保護の両立を果たす。 It is possible to eliminate damage from birds and beasts by using the device and method described in. Because it does not require killing, wildlife can be protected at the same time, achieving both wildlife protection and wildlife protection, which were previously considered to be conflicting.

本発明を具体的に設置・運用をすることにおいて、鳥獣被害でもっとも対応が困難とされるニホンザルを対象とした。試験設置した６カ所では１カ所を除き、周辺の被害はほぼゼロとなった、残る１カ所も、山際の畑を除き、被害はほぼゼロとなった。このように予知することで行う追い払い行為の効果は絶大であることが確認できた。また、人が出ていくことで、群れも早い時点で移動するコースを変更するようになり、その地域に近づくことそのものが無くなった地域もあった。 In the installation and operation of the present invention, the Japanese monkeys which are most difficult to deal with due to damage from birds and beasts were targeted. The six sites where the test was set up, except for one, had almost no damage in the surrounding area, and the remaining one, except for the fields on the mountainside, had almost no damage. It was confirmed that the effect of the evacuation action performed by predicting in this way was enormous. In addition, some people came to change the course that the group moved at an early point because people went out, and there was no area approaching the area itself.

地域力が、成果の鍵を握る。地域住民の連携、すなわち組織的な追い払い行為が効果を高める一番の方策であり、本発明品を設置することで、地域の連携・コミュニケーションが良くなったという地域も生まれる。ほ場の近くに設置し、住民の日頃の生活空間から離れるような形態は、素早い対応（予知による予防）の観点から望ましくなく、また、携帯電話などを使った通報方式では、特定の人に負担が集中し、対応が遅れがちとなり予知による予防効果が発揮しづらい。本発明では、離れた場所からでも接近を感知できる安定な感度を提供しているため、人の日頃の生活空間に設置しても、野生動物の接近を知ることができる。そこで生活を営む多くの人に、同時に「接近」という情報を提供できるため、素早く組織的な追い払い行為が可能となり、予知による予防を行うことができる。 Regional power is the key to results. The cooperation between local residents, that is, the systematic evacuation action is the most effective way to increase the effect, and the installation of the present invention also creates a region where the cooperation and communication in the region has improved. It is not desirable to set up near the field and leave the daily living space of the residents from the viewpoint of quick response (prevention by prediction). Concentration, response tends to be delayed, and preventive effect due to prediction is difficult. Since the present invention provides stable sensitivity capable of sensing the approach even from a distant place, it is possible to know the approach of wild animals even if it is installed in a person's daily living space. Therefore, since it is possible to provide information on “approach” to many people who live at the same time, it is possible to quickly and systematically drive out and prevent by prediction.

本発明は、屋外アンテナ、受信部、雑音対策部、信号制御部、警報発信・表示部、動作記録部、電源部から構成される。商用電源が利用できない場合、あるいは可搬型として設置する場合は、ソーラーパネルによる独立電源を組み合わすことで対応する。安定な受信をめざすため、感度の向上、雑音対策、信号処理に工夫がある。０ｄｂ以上の受信信号で警報発報が可能で、−６ｄｂまでその警報発報を維持できる。目的（テレメトリ発信器）の電波以外の雑音などによる誤動作軽減のために、受信機にはリミッタ（ノイズリダクション回路）を内蔵し、アンテナ及び電源にはアレスターを組み入れることで対策を行い、無指向性屋外アンテナ（利得４.５ｄｂｉ）の採用で、５００ｍ〜１Km離れた距離で動物に取り付けられたテレメトリ発信器の発信電波を安定に受信し、警報が発せられるようにする。テレメトリ発信器の信号を受信すると、音で知らせ、合わせて回転灯の光で住民に野生動物の接近を知らせる。警報音は、受信当初のみとし、その受信中は常に回転灯は点灯し続ける。また、受信可能範囲をあらかじめ点検・調査しておくことで、どの範囲に野生動物が近づいてきたかを知ることができる。設置場所の条件等により、検知感度（距離）の設定、警報音の種類や音量、警報発光の種類や作動時間を含め、警報の種類は任意に変更できるものとする。住民は、この警報により、自分のほ場に追い払い用の花火を持って出かけ、そこに野生動物の姿が見えると、花火を打って追い払いを行う（積極策）。打たれた花火で、どこに野生動物が姿を出したかを地域の住民は知ることができ、応援などによる組織的な追い払いが可能となる。野生動物の姿は見えなくても、動物の側からはそこに人がいることが見えていて、そのことでその場は人の生活圏だと判断し姿を見せなくなり、最終的には、その近くに近づかなくなり、鳥獣被害は無くなる（予知による予防策）。
本装置の中に、受信動作の記録機能を組み入れ、テレメトリ発信器の受信周波数・作動（入り切り）日時を記録・保存することで、いつどの野生動物がその検知範囲に現れたかの履歴を残すことが可能となり、野生動物の行動域調査が正確にできることとなり、鳥獣被害対策をより確実に実施することが可能となる。動作記録部と外部コンピュータとの接続は一般的なＲＳ２３２ｃで、テキスト形式で保存した履歴データを外部に取り出すことができる。 The present invention includes an outdoor antenna, a reception unit, a noise countermeasure unit, a signal control unit, an alarm transmission / display unit, an operation recording unit, and a power supply unit. When commercial power is not available, or when it is installed as a portable type, it can be handled by combining independent power sources with solar panels. In order to achieve stable reception, improvements are made in sensitivity, noise countermeasures, and signal processing. An alarm can be issued with a received signal of 0 db or more, and the alarm can be maintained up to -6 db. In order to reduce malfunction due to noise other than radio waves of the purpose (telemetry transmitter), the receiver has a built-in limiter (noise reduction circuit), and the antenna and power supply incorporate an arrester to take countermeasures, making it non-directional By adopting an outdoor antenna (gain 4.5dbi), it is possible to stably receive a radio wave transmitted from a telemetry transmitter attached to an animal at a distance of 500m to 1km and to generate an alarm. When the telemetry transmitter signal is received, it is notified by sound, and the light of the rotating lamp is used to inform the residents of the approaching wild animals. The alarm sound is only received at the beginning of reception, and the revolving light always lights up during reception. Also, by checking and investigating the receivable range in advance, it is possible to know which range the wild animal has approached. The type of alarm can be arbitrarily changed depending on the conditions of the installation location, including the setting of detection sensitivity (distance), the type and volume of alarm sound, the type of alarm light emission and the operating time. With this warning, residents go out with fireworks for driving away from their fields, and when wild animals are seen there, fireworks are fired away (active measures). Local residents can know where wild animals have appeared with the fireworks that have been struck, making it possible to systematically drive them away through support. Even if you can't see the wildlife, you can see that there is a person on the animal side. You will not get close to it, and there will be no damage to birds and beasts (predictive preventive measures).
Incorporating a recording function of reception operation into this device, and recording and storing the reception frequency, operation (on / off) date and time of the telemetry transmitter, it is possible to keep a history of when and what wild animals appeared in the detection range. This makes it possible to conduct an accurate survey of the wild animal's range of action, and to more reliably implement measures against damage to birds and beasts. The connection between the operation recording unit and the external computer is general RS232c, and the history data stored in the text format can be taken out to the outside.
