An appearance of radiometers and dosimeters on free sale made it possible to provide better radiation safety for citizens. The effects of radiation may not appear all at once. They can manifest themselves in decades to come in future generations, in the form of cancer, genetic mutations, etc. For this reason, we have developed in this paper a microcontroller-based radiation monitoring system. The system determines an accumulated radiation dose for a certain period, as well as gives alarm signals when the rate of the equivalent dose exceeds. The high reliability of this system is ensured by a rapid response to emergency situations: excess of the allowable power of the equivalent radiation dose and the accumulator charge control. Further, we have composed a microcontroller electronic circuit for the monitoring radiation system. Additionally, an operation algorithm, as well as software for the ATmega328P microcontroller of the Arduino Uno board, have been developed.
辐射计和剂量计的出现使得为公民提供更好的辐射安全成为可能。辐射的影响可能不会立即显现。它们可能会在未来几代人在几十年后以癌症、基因突变等形式表现出来。出于这个原因，我们在本文中开发了一种基于微控制器的辐射监测系统。该系统确定了一定时间内的累积辐射剂量，并在等效剂量率超过时发出报警信号。该系统的高可靠性通过快速应对紧急情况来保证：超过允许的等效辐射剂量和蓄电池充电控制的功率。此外，我们还为监测辐射系统组成了一个微控制器电子电路。此外，还开发了一个操作算法以及用于 Arduino Uno 板的 ATmega328P 微控制器的软件。
