Wireless Sensor Network-based Monitoring System for Health Structure of Rail-tracks: An Efficient Design for Communication

The paper introduces a monitoring system for the health structure of rail-tracks. The slab track system is highly demanded due to its quality for safety measures and highly sustainable quality for high-speed railway infrastructure, particularly in India for the Bullet-train project. Previously, the system used to monitor the health of slab-tracks was costly and not done regularly, but the evolution of digitalization and wireless sensor networks is doing tremendous work for monitoring the health of infrastructure and other activities. In rail-track systems, wireless sensors can provide us with information, detection, and prediction of the health-infrastructure of rail-tracks. An efficient design for communication systems is needed for such safety-critical railway tracks. The paper proposes an accurate and efficient design for communication.
