Android & WSN Based Train Tracking and Collision Avoidance for Railway Sector

In recent years, there is a lot of challenges for railway sector to provide a better transport. Now a days a signaling and tracking of trains are more depend on tracking devices like axle counter & track circuit. These devices will tell whether the train crossing the particular point or not and based on that signaling for trains is issued. Due to the short come of these sensors and carelessness of human will end up with huge train accidents and taking massive people's life. The proposed system comes with a solution for the problems by using wireless sensor networks. Each trains will be act as a WSN node and update their position information through connected GPS and provide the same information back to server and update the database through WSN node. The proposed system comes with mobile control room in a android Platform. So through internet or wireless communication complete information about the nearby trains can be visualized in the android devices. The proposed system can be more benefit able for workers whom working in the rails, for identifying the trains nearby them, so they can be more comfortable on their work.
