Abstract


Rail transport is facing major challenges today. On one hand, it must meet the needs of citizens for greater mobility while, on the other, it must provide a valid alternative to other modes of transport against a backdrop of rising fuel prices and the increasing importance of the impact of transport on the environment. In this context, rail transport must be ever more efficient. In this project we are going to prevent the train collision using MIWI communication. Transmitter will send a data (track1) from transmitter side and receiver receives the same data at receiver side. If the receiver is in another track the engine driver will send a data (track2) through transmitter and received by the receiver. If both the trains in the same track means, both the transmitters and receivers will send the same track no and immediately buzzer will give alert on both the sides. Thus the train collision is prevented. There is also a PIR sensor which is fixed in the train, to give electric supply when there is a human being is sitting inside the train. There is also an ultrasonic sensor which is attached to the train which intimates the distance of the obstacle
