BUS TRACKING SYSTEM USING RF COMMUNICATION FOR

PASSENGER INFORMATION OVER IOT

Abstract:

Now-a-days in railway stations, bus station, airports different voice based announcements
are given by the authorized people in different languages to help public. The announcement
consists of any delays, occurrence of train at particular station/bus stop and platform. The project
aims in designing a system which is capable updating the information about the bus location.

This device is designed to provide with a greater advantage producing updated

information which is available through internet using IoT module used in this project. This is
possible with the help of RF communication. RF transmitter is given with four switches which
represents four locations when particular switch is pressed i.e. RF receiver gets particular
frequency then the controller will understand the location and updates the same thing about bus
location using IoT module connected to the controller.

This project uses regulated 5V, 500mA power supply. 7805 three terminal voltage regulator
is used for voltage regulation. Bridge type full wave rectifier is used to rectify the ac out put of
secondary of 230/12V step down transformer.
