Abstract: The proposed Railway Management System integrates automation technologies to enhance railway safety, efficiency, and management through the use of Arduino microcontrollers ,H-Bridge, DC motors, IR sensors and Zigbee.This system comprises two main modules:-The Station Module and the Train Module, each fulfilling distinct roles in managing train operations and station activities.The Station Module utilizes IR sensors to monitor platform availability,that will displayed in the LCD,ensuring optimal train scheduling and management. The Train Module controls train movement and speed via DC motors managed by H-Bridge drivers. Wireless communication between the Station and Train Modules is facilitated by Zigbee technology, allowing for seamless data transmission of platform status, train positions, crack alerts and Fire detection.Furthermore, the system incorporates an automatic gate control mechanism powered by DC motors, which operate based on inputs from IR sensors detecting the train’s proximity to level crossings.
Keywords: Arduino UNO, IR Sensor, LCD Display, Zigbee, DC Motor, H-bridge.
