This paper briefly introduces the structure and network layout of Gansu Earthquake Early Warning Stations Network, and discusses the relationship of the effective early warning time and the radius of early warning blind zone with consumed time for early warning. Based on the layout of the current and future earthquake early warning stations network of Gansu, the consumed time for early warning under three stations triggered and six stations triggered is calculated and analyzed. In addition, the contour map of consumed time for early warning in Gansu is drawn. The results show that the effective early warning time is negatively correlated with consumed time for early warning, and the radius of the early warning blind zone is positively correlated with consumed time. And the consumed time for early warning of the future earthquake early warning stations network under three triggered stations and six triggered stations in Gansu is shortened by 29.24% and 37.13% compared with those of the current earthquake early warning stations network. After the completion of the Gansu Subproject, the effective early warning time will be increased and the radius of the early warning blind zone will be reduced, then the early warning capability in Gansu is to be greatly improved.
