Seminar Report: Self-powered Railway Condition Monitoring System


The seminar report is primarily based on a studies article posted in the IEEE journal, titled “Self-Powered ZigBee Wireless Sensor Nodes for Railway Condition Monitoring” authored by Mingyuan Gao, Ping Wang, Yifeng Wang of School of Civil Engineering, Southwest Jiaotong University, Sichuan, China. The objective of the seminar report become to expand and analyze self-powered railway circumstance monitoring gadgets. a magnetic levitation-based totally power harvester is used for the mentioned motive. the need for railway condition tracking is critical.

In this seminar report, we use a series of wireless sensors like an accelerometer, temperature sensor, humidity sensor, and infrared detector for monitoring specific parameters of the railway and the gathered statistics are transmitted through the use of a ZigBee network. and those modules are powered using a magnetic levitation electricity harvester. So the vibrational energy produced by way of music can be applied to supply power, which in flip can electricity the modules. This seminar report investigated the possibility of establishing a self-powered wireless sensor network by integrating the techniques of ZigBee stack protocol and energy harvesting.
