Invisible Payment System for Metro Station using cellular technology.

The idea is about solving one of the greatest challenges in the Metro services, which is the Fare Collection System.
Currently around the globe, millions of Metro users everyday have to go through a hectic and slow fare collection
process which requires users to stand in queues and carry a token/card to authenticate themselves and pay the fare.
It is a huge waste of time and also a poor user experience.

This can be solved by using cellular technology and having some changes in the infrastructure of the fare collection
system, where a user can walk through the system, without the need of stopping anywhere and most importantly
without carrying any token or a card. A user can simply walk in and out of the metro station handsfree, thus making
the experience very efficient and convenient.

This is based on a cellular technology with some application written on the base-station and deploying Femtocells as
part of the infrastructure, without any changes at the UE side.
