Design and implementation of wireless security system for railway tracks

This paper describes a system, basically an electronic system that can help us to detect the exact location of the crack which has been formed accidently or due to the terrorist activities. In India railway transportation occupies a very important role for connecting the entire country via different routes in the hilly regions, deserts, plateaus and all other extreme climatic conditions found all across the country to meet the ever-burgeoning needs of the growing economy. India has the fourth rank in terms of railway network in the world but in terms of safety and other technical advancements we have not yet achieved the specific position in the world.in this paper we are implementing a system that can locate the exact location of the crack on the track which will help to reduce the rail accidents which often leads to heavy loss of life and property. Advanced Niyantran is a cost effective solution to the problem of railway track crack detection utilizing IR sensor which tracks the exact location of faulty track and ultrasonic sensor which detects the obstacles in track which then quickly notified to the control room. So that many lives will be saved and the railways will not face any loss due to accidents hence creating a safer mode of transportation.
