Abstract

Ticket checking process in ships has become very difficult. Ships are one of the areas which have a strong potential to benefit from Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) and Zigbee. The most common loopholes experienced in ships are tracking the passengers in ships and getting information. Sometimes passengers do not buy tickets but travels and some passengers gets ticket for short distances and travel for the long distances. So for providing a better and secure system to the passengers, we have proposed a design of passenger tracing and handling system using smart RFID tags and zigbee. The proposed designed system has a prototype at two locations having both check-in and check-out processes. A more secured algorithm is used for generating tags that are given to the passengers as a ticket with the details of passenger which is also stored in a computer as well. Here, GPS is to continuously track the passenger. RFID readers in the check-out areas facilitate to track the passenger with the help of GPS. . The passenger’s real time position is tracked and information is stored using Zigbee. The same ID can be used while departing at check-out gate. The system provided ensures less consumption of time, security.
