Development of Background Radiation Monitoring System Based on Arduino Platform

In the paper, the background radiation monitoring system has been developed. It has been built on the Arduino Uno microcontroller board, Geiger-Mueller counters, alphanumeric LCD module and high-voltage power supply module for counters. The system measures power of the equivalent radiation dose and accumulated dose and outputs the information via the serial port to PC, and also sends warning signals when the equivalent dose rate is exceeded.
