DESIGN OF AUTOMETRO TRAIN SYSTEM BASED ON RFID

AIM:
The main aim of this project is to design metro train with automation.

PURPOSE:

The purpose of this project is to design a prototype to implement in metro trains

which help in providing automation like door open/close and also updation of station info.

DESCRIPTION:

Presently metro trains are like revolutions in transport. How will be if it is automated
and secured? Our project is such a type which provides both security and automation and
updation of information about stations.

Our Project consists of two sections one is RFID TAG section another one is RFID
reader section. There are tags placed at each station which consists of Station name details.
Whenever the train enters into the particular station the RFID reader reads information from
the tag and displays the station name in the LCD provided in the compartments so that the
passengers can know the location of the train. When the train halts in a particular station the
door will be opened automatically so, the passengers can get down. After a few seconds door
will be closed.

Along with these every passenger will be provided with Tokens instead of tickets at
stations. These tokens consist of travelling details of the passenger. Means from and
destination stations. At each entrance of metro compartments there will be RFID reader, the
passenger should show tag at reader. If the tag shown by passenger is valid then only the door
of the train will be opened. If the card is invalid then the door will not be opened. So that
passengers with valid ticket can only board the train. Whenever the train reaches the
particular destination station then the train will stop and the passengers can get down.
Because of tokens which contains starting and destination stations of that particular
passenger.
TECHNOLOGY:

RFID:

RFID is an acronym for Radio Frequency Identification. In general terms, RFID is a

means of identifying a person or object using a radio frequency transmission. In other words
RFID is an electronic method of exchanging data over radio frequency waves. The
technology can be used to identify, track, sort or detect a wide variety of objects.
There are three major components of an RFID system: the reader, the antenna, and the tags.
Each tag is associated with a unique number. When a tag is in the detection range of the
reader, the number is read. Two types of tags can be found: active tags with a longer detection
range and passive tags with a shorter detection range. An RFID tag is usually attached to an
object and the information of the object along with the RFID number are recorded in the
database. Whenever the RFID tag is sensed, the object can thus be identified.
