Abstract: The Tamil Nadu factor in India-Sri Lanka relations that had been quiet for long has come to the fore in the form of the fishermen issue. Frequent incidents of fishermen from Tamil Nadu getting shot in the Sri Lankans maritime boundar ha!e enraged all citi"en of the state. From Tamil Nadu about #$%&&& boats of different kinds conduct fishing along the India - Sri Lanka maritime border. '!er since !iolence broke out in Sri Lanka t(o decades ago% fishing acti!it has not been )eaceful. Tamil Nadu fishermen are arrested% or shot% b the Sri Lankan Na! . In this )roblem (ill be sol!ed b using An Intelligent *oundar Alert S stem +I*AS,.An I*AS s stem induces the ne( methodolog for sa!ing the fishermen !aluable life and their )ro)erties from the Sri Lankans na! . The main ob-ecti!e of this s stem is used to hel) the fishermen to na!igate inside our maritime countr border.

"he "amil !adu #a$tor in India-Sri %an&a relations that had been 'uiet #or long has $ome to the #ore in the #orm o# the #ishermen issue. (re'uent in$idents o# #ishermen #rom "amil !adu getting shot in the Sri %an&an)s maritime boundary ha*e enraged all $iti+en o# the state. (rom "amil !adu about ,-,... boats o# di##erent &inds $ondu$t #ishing along the India-Sri %an&a maritime border. /*er sin$e *iolen$e bro&e out in Sri %an&a t0o de$ades ago, #ishing a$ti*ity has not been 1ea$e#ul. "amil !adu #ishermen are arrested, or shot, by the Sri %an&an !a*y. (rom the #ishermen2s 1oint o# *ie0, straying ta&es 1la$e inad*ertently, due to sheer ignoran$e about maritime boundaries. At times, the dri#t is be$ause o# engine #ailure or strong $urrents. At the same time ho0e*er, 'uite a #e0 Indian #ishermen engage in #ree #loating to e31loit marine resour$es in Sri %an&an 0aters, &no0ing #ull 0ell, the ris&s in*ol*ed in $rossing the International Maritime Boundary %ine 4IMB%5. Gro0ing mar&ets #or marine resour$es has #or$ed "amil !adu #ishermen to ta&e ris&s. GPS 4Global Positioning System5 is in$reasingly being used #or a 0ide range o# a11li$ations. It 1ro*ides reliable 1ositioning, na*igation, and timing ser*i$es to 0orld0ide users on a $ontinuous basis in all 0eather, day and night, any0here on or near the /arth. GPS is made u1 o# three segments6 S1a$e, Control and User. GPS has be$ome a 0idely used aid to na*igation 0orld0ide, and a use#ul tool #or ma1ma&ing, land sur*eying, $ommer$e, s$ienti#i$ uses, tra$&ing and relian$e, and hobbies su$h as geo $a$hing and 0ay mar&ing. !one o# the 1resent GPS systems satis#y the re'uirements #or the sa#ety o# $i*ilian na*igation in the sea as the maritime boundary o# a $ountry $annot be mar&ed. It adds on the *ersatility and the use#ulness o# a GPS de*i$e in the sea. "he main ob7e$ti*e o# the 1a1er is to hel1 the #ishermen not to na*igate beyond other $ountry)s border. I# a #isherman na*igates beyond the $ountry)s border, an alarm is generated indi$ating that the #isherman has nearing the border. ith this alarm, the #isherman $an be $aution and $ome ba$& inside the $ountry)s border. Additionally, a message transmitter is inter#a$ed 0ith the de*i$e to send a message to base station lo$ated on the shore indi$ating that a *essel has $rossed the border. "hus guards in the shore $an assist and 1ro*ide additional hel1 to those #ishermen i# needed. II. EXISTING SYSTEM At 1resent, there are #e0 e3isting systems 0hi$h hel1 to identi#y the $urrent 1osition o# the boats8shi1s using GPS system and *ie0 them in an ele$troni$ ma1. GPS 1ro*ides the #astest and most a$$urate method #or mariners to na*igate, measure s1eed, and determine lo$ation. "his enables in$reased le*els o# sa#ety and e##i$ien$y #or mariners 0orld0ide and a$$urate 1osition, s1eed and heading are needed to ensure the *essel rea$h its destination sa#ely. "he a$$urate 1osition in#ormation be$omes e*en more $riti$al as the *essel de1arts #rom or arri*es in 1ort. III. PROPOSED SYSTEM "he 1ro1osed system is used to dete$t the maritime boundary o# the $ountry 0here the long time dis1ute bet0een Sri %an&a and India still e3ists. "his mainly ha11ens 0hen #isherman $rosses maritime border o# neighboring $ountry as he is not a0are o# the limits in sea. "he 1ro1osed system uses a GPS 0hi$h re$ei*es signals #rom the satellite and gi*es the $urrent 1osition o# the boat. ith already &no0n details o# the latitude and longitude o# the maritime boundary stored in the ARM 1ro$essor .It $om1ares the $urrent 1osition and stored boundary 1osition i# the *essel near to the boundary means

it generate an alarm. It also uses a S! to send message to the base station 0hi$h monitors the boats in the sea. 9ur system 1ro*ides an indi$ation to both #isherman and to $oastal guard. "hus the system sa*es the li*es o# the #isherman or redu$es the damages $aused to them by %an&an $oast guard. BLOCK DIAGRAM
