Abstract: | Indian Railways, the fourth-largest railway network in the world and newlineone of the oldest, serves the needs of numerous millions of people. People in newlineIndia believe that trains are the ideal form of transportation since they provide newlinefor all of our needs, are safe, and are the mainstay of both long - and newlineshort-distance travel in the country. In order to provide safety measurements, an newlineautomated unmanned level crossing system is proposed in this research work by newlineusing the piezoelectric accelerometer. A prototype model has been developed newlineand successfully verified the opening and closing of the gate during train arrival. newlineThe piezoelectric accelerometer is fixed between the rails to detect the arrival of newlinetrain and the train vibration is captured and amplified by using Instrumentation newlineAmplifier. The amplified signal is then transferred to the gate or receiver section newlinethrough RF Transmitter. RF receiver receives the encoded signal and processing newlineit for further. Based on the vibration sensor output signal, the gate at unmanned newlinelevel crossing is closed after verifying with intrusion detection using IR sensors newlineand automatically opens after 180 seconds. The system reduces the human newlineintervention during opening and closing the gate and mainly reduces the newlineaccidents occurred at the unmanned level crossing. The system is cost effective newlineand fixing of sensor in the rails is very simple. This system will be very helpful newlineto the people living near the unmanned railway gate and those who are crossing newlinethe unmanned railway gate. newlineIn second approach, a comprehensive instrumentation with Arduino newlineand Zigbee technology of automatic gate closing using a piezoelectric vibration newlinesensor has been developed. In this prototype model, the sensor has been fixed newlinebefore and after the level crossing at 5 feet distance to detect the arrival and newlinedeparture of a train. As soon as the train crosses the first sensor, the signal is newlinetransmitted to the gate controlling unit using the Zigbee technology. newline |
