To ensure the safety of workers during disasters is a common issue. In a construction site such as a tunnel, since it is a space where positioning by GPS (Global Positioning System) is difficult, it is realized to install a unique positioning system and instruct workers to move away. In order to divert it to an accelerator tunnel, the problem of radiation resistance has to be solved. We...
