Indian Railway network is
one of the biggest rail networks in the world. Handling and managing
such a vast network is not an easy task. The rail network consists of a
lot of junctions and vast amount of signals on set distances to manage
the train flow. Well the train driver needs to constantly check for any
red signals on every post and decide whether to stop or move forward. It
is very difficult to constantly keep track of every visual signal for
the driver. So here we propose an automatic alerting system that alerts
the driver of any red signal ahead. Our system works on the basis of Rf
technology. Whenever a signal turns red, it sets on an rf transmitter
fitted in it. The transmitter constantly transmits rf signals informing
about a red signal. Now every train needs an receiver circuit on it. The
receiver circuit when comes within certain range of the rf transmitter,
it receives the input and sends it to the microcontroller. The
microcontroller then processes this data in order to alert the driver
about the signal ahead.
