In order to ensure life safety of fire rescue personnel and improve the rescue efficiency

a wireless transmission system which is integrated in the measurement and control system and based on field programmable gate array（FPGA） and global system for mobile communication（GSM） is proposed.This design uses FPGA as the main control chip to control the interactive communication between other modules in the system

GSM communication module and ground receiving terminal

which meets the hardware requirements of low power consumption and high integration.The experiment proves that the design can transmit the fireman’s position information

motion state and vital signs to the receiving terminal in the complex environment without network and other transmission tools so that the scene commander can give the correct command and protect the life safety of rescue personnel

which has certain reliability and feasibility.
