  1. 1. Bluetooth Based Bird Detection System

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola

    Author : Muppireddy Sai Charan Reddy; Veera Venkata Satyanarayana Murthy Namuduri; [2023]
    Keywords : Bluetooth; Avifauna; Signal strength; Distance estimation; Bird Detection;

    Abstract : Context: Windmills became one of main sources of energy. Sincethey are placed in open areas, there are many chances that birds mayenter the wind farms and get killed or damaged. Some wind farms usepulse radar systems for saving the birds from windmills. In this pulseradar technology, the turbines are turned off automatically when a birdis detected. READ MORE

    Author : Arvid Sandström; [2021]
    Keywords : biodiversity; deciduous forest; avifauna;

    Abstract : Voluntary set-asides are an important part of the conservation of forest species in Sweden. Set aside stands are either treated passively by leaving them untouched (in Swedish abbreviated as NO) or with active, often invasive maintenance (NS). READ MORE

  5. 4. STUDY OF REQUIREMENTS FOR POST-CONSTRUCTION AUTOMATED BIRD MITIGATION SYSTEMS FROM STAKEHOLDER’S PERSPECTIVE

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Veaceslav Crasilşcic; [2016]
    Keywords : wind power; avifauna; collision risk; birds; raptors; golden eagles; white- tailed eagles; bird mitigation systems;

    Abstract : The expansion of wind power comes with additional risks for bird populations, one of which is the collision with wind turbine components, mainly the rotating blades. In order to mitigate this risk, few systems on the market propose solutions with modules that deter the birds from the wind turbine or trigger the temporary shutdown of the turbines. READ MORE

  6. 5. MOVING TOWARDS BEST PRACTICE FOR BIRD MORTALITY MITIGATION IN WIND POWER PLANNING, SWEDEN

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Ross McNally; [2015]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates the potential for moving towards a best practice for bird mortality mitigation within wind power planning in Sweden. Best practice in this sense involves stakeholder collaboration and consensus on methods for reducing the risk of bird mortality at wind farms in Sweden in line with current legislation. READ MORE
