2. PROFILE OF THE PROBLEM
2.1 AIM: Now a days people prefer to travel in Train instead of Bus, according a lot of changes the way of using our transport systems. More and more trains are aiding for the transportation systems. At the same time the probable of Train to train collision, Train to other vehicles at unmanned level crossing are increasing day by day.
2.2 ABSTRACT: This work is concentrated on predicting the major cause of railway accidents that is collision on the same track. For this purpose some advanced technology to identify train positions, collision detection as well as the points at where collisions may occur have been used. The primary goal of our anti-collision system is to identify such collision points and to report these error cases to main control room, nearby station as well as grid control stations. So that if any collision likely to occurs then our system will help to avoid such conditions by giving an alarm to concern units. To build this system, long distance communication system , microcontroller and wireless Communication protocol has been used.
2.3Indian Railways & Safety: present Perspective Indian:
Railways are the world's second-largest railway, with 6,853 stations, 63,028 kilometers of track, 37,840 passenger coaches and 222,147 freight cars. Annually it carries some 4.83 billion passengers and 492 million tons of freight. Of the 11 million passengers who climb aboard one of 8,520 trains each day, about 550,000 have reserved accommodations.
Safe transportation of passengers is the key business objective of any transportation system. Railways are recognized as the safest mode of mass transportation and Safety has been recognized as the key issue for the railways and one of its special attributes. All business strategies emanate from this theme and strive to achieve Accident Free System. Safety is, therefore, the key performance index which the top managements need to monitor
and take preventive steps based on trends of accidents which are the manifestations of some of the unsafe practices on the system.
