摘要:Railways are the biggest transport system all over the world and also for any country too. It is the mainbackbone for transport system and hence railway safety is a crucial part of railway management system. Rail/roadintersections are potentially dangerous and yet unavoidable in the World. The major safety aspect is the safe levelcrossings. Level crossing is a point at which railway track and road interact on same level and are characterized asmanned (where man power is available) level crossings and unmanned (no man power in any from available) levelcrossings. Unmanned level crossings are more prone to level cross accidents. The railway safety is ensured byimproving the passing efficiency in railway crossing, a new railway crossing warning system based on GlobalPositioning System (GPS) and General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) using Field Programmable Gated Arrays (FPGA)is proposed. This system is compress of high-precision positioning feature of GPS and efficient transmission ratefeature of GPRS, combining with the computer control technologies are used to provide a safeguard for the railwaysystem.
