This research focuses on the development of Smart Level Crossing for preventing the accidents in the level crossing by detecting train at a certain distance before reaching the train gate inside the level crossing area. In order to detect the train in the level crossing, sensors for detecting train and communication systems that sends data to the train gate must be determined. This research tries to utilize a radar-based sensor as main part for train detection. This system would communicate with the micro-controller to accordingly carry out the gate closing and opening operations. Warning lamp and warning light would be present to warn off pedestrians that use level area crossing. Manual back up system will replace the automatic system in the case of smart level crossing system sensor fail to trigger.
This research addresses the problem of vandalism incident related to thesmart level crossing technology. Smart level crossing system is essentialas a safety system inside the level area, because of that any failurerelated to the System will endanger the railway and road user. Anothersubsystem that protects smart level crossing property is critical. Thisresearch will show the plan for applying anti-vandalism technology andanalysis another possibility of technology related to the System.
