Wireless Based Automated Railway Signaling And Gate Control

Abstract

This project is developed for the users to have automatic gate control, E-ticket and accident alert in modern railways. The main modules in gate control module is sensor, Microcontroller unit, Driver unit, Indicator and gate motor. The IR transmitter and receiver are connected near the gate so that one faces the other. The IR transmitter transmits IR rays when the power supply is switched on. The IR sensor is connected with the microcontroller. In normal positions, the rays transmitted from the transmitter falls on the IR sensor. If there is no train, the signals from the IR transmitter falls on the IR receiver directly. When the train crosses the particular area, the IR signals are cut and it automatically sends signal to the microcontroller. The microcontroller operates warning light and the relay section through driver section. Thus the gate opens. After certain period, the microcontroller operates another relay to close the door. Before closing the door, the microcontroller operates the warning light. If the train stops in that place, the microcontroller won’t allow the gate to open.
