Abstract

In recent times, derailments due to uprooting rails on a railway track has become a banal and noteworthy occurrence in Bangladesh due to different reasons such as political unrest, mass protest, etc. However, the railway tracks in Bangladesh are yet to deploy an automated system that can prevent the losses due to derailments through early detection of missing rails on a railway track. As a remedy to this situation, in this project, we propose to develop a WSN based automated system, which can sense the discontinuity of rail blocks and thus prevent from derailment of trains.
