TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION

ARM36

Abstract:
Due to the drastic changes in technology in the last decade, so many advancements were
introduced in transport departments. The reservation can be done now through E-Seva centers,
internet and even through mobile phones. This GSM based train reservation system is a unique
and advanced concept through which we can book the railway tickets through your mobile phone
by a simple SMS.
The project is implemented by using advanced processor ARM7TDMI which is a 32 bit
SMSs and is the link between ARM processor and centralized unit.
ARM7TDMI is an advanced version of microprocessors and forms the heart of the
system. Our project aims to implement the train reservation system through mobile phones. GSM
modem can be controlled by standard set of AT (Attention) commands. These commands can be
used to control majority of the functions of GSM modem.
In this project we are using LPC2148. The LPC2148 are based on a 16/32 bit
ARM7TDMI-S CPU with real-time emulation and embedded trace support, together with
128/512 kilobytes of embedded high speed flash memory. With a wide range of serial
communications interfaces, they are also very well suited for communication gateways, protocol
converters and embedded soft modems as well as many other general-purpose applications.
In this project by sending a simple SMS we can get the status of vacant seats (A/c or
non A/c). From the central system we get a reply status of vacant seats on a particular day. After
conforming, we can book the ticket by sending a 16 pin credit card number to the reservation
system. As a conformation, we can get the M-Ticket (Mobile Ticket) to your mobile phone; just
we have to carry the ticket with us for travelling.
This project uses two power supplies, one is regulated 5V for modules and other one is
3.3V for LPC2148. 7805 three terminal voltage regulator is used for voltage regulation. Bridge
