1. Overview of GNSS-based Railway Monitoring System

1.1 Introduction

A GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System)-based railway monitoring and tracking system utilizes
satellite navigation technology to provide precise location data for trains. This system improves the
safety, efficiency, and reliability of railway operations.

1.2 Components of GNSS-based Railway Monitoring System

• GNSS Receivers: Installed on trains to receive satellite signals.


• Satellite Constellations: Such as GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, and Bei Dou.
• Control Centers: Centralized hubs that process and analyze the data received from GNSS
receivers.
• Communication Networks: Enable real-time data transmission between trains and control
centers.
• User Interfaces: For operators and stakeholders to access monitoring data.

1.3 Benefits

• Real-time Tracking: Provides accurate and timely information about train locations.
• Safety Enhancements: Enables the detection of potential hazards and accidents.
• Operational Efficiency: Optimizes train scheduling and reduces delays.
• Maintenance Monitoring: Assists in predictive maintenance by tracking train health.

2. Literature Review

2.1 Real-time GPS vehicle tracking system

In this paper implementation and designing of a real-time GPS tracker system via Arduino was applied.
This method was applicable for salesman tracking, private driver and for vehicle safety. The author of
the paper also tried to solve the problem of owners who have expensive cars to observe and track the
vehicle and find out vehicle movement and its past activities of vehicle. The system has GPS/GSM
modules controlled by Arduino MEGA placed inside the vehicle. The vehicle position will be updated
every time as the vehicle moves. Then User will send SMS on registered number and they will receive
the coordinate location. At the same time the data will get stored on SD card continuously. The location
will be accessible to users by system via website over the internet. [1]

2.2 Android app-based vehicle tracking using GPS and GSM

The author of this paper has explained an embedded system, used to know the location of the vehicle
using technologies like GSM and GPS. System needs closely linked GPS and GSM module with a
microcontroller. Initially, the GPS installed in the device will receive the vehicle location from satellite
and store it in a microcontroller ‘s buffer. In order to track location, the registered mobile number has
to send request, once authentication of number get completed, the location will be sent to mobile number
in the form of SMS. Then GSM get deactivated and GPS get activated again. The SMS consist of

latitude and longitude value of vehicle. This value received in the SMS can be viewed via android app
and this coordinate will be plotted in the app automatically. [2]
