1. INTRODUCTION
Railways were introduced in India in 1853 and it developed eventually through the twentieth
century and during this duration large number of companies managed to grow successfully.
The Indian Railway Conference Association (IRCA) was set up in the 1903 for
standardization and coordination among different railway systems. This organization was
followed by the Central Standards Office (CSO) in 1930 in order for the preparation of
designs, specifications and standards. Alas, until independence most of these designs and
manufacture of railway equipments was under the control the foreign consultants. After
Independence and with the gradual increase in population the demands of rail transportation
increased in bounds due to which a new organization called Railway Testing and ResearchCentre (RTRC) was setup in the 1952 at Lucknow for testing and conducting applied research
for development of the railways. Soon the CSO and RTRC were integrated or combined
together to form a single unit called as the RDSO- RESEARCH DESIGNS AND
STANDARDS ORGANISATION in 1957, under Ministry of railways at Lucknow.

2. SIMRAN SIMRAN stands for Satellite Imaging for Rail Navigation.
It is basically a Real Time Train Tracking System which is based on Global Positioning
System (GPS) and Global System for Mobile (GSM) technologies.
This pilot project is jointly developed by RDSO/Lucknow and IIT/Kanpur. It is fitted in
the locomotive.
Apart from Real time live train tracking it is also used as Unmanned Level Crossing Gate
Warning System which provides Audio Visual warning to the nearby pedestrians,
whenever a train fitted with SIMRAN locomotive equipment approaches the level
crossing gate and has reaches a predetermined distance from the level crossing gate.
LC Gate warning system uses Solar Power as primary source of Power Supply. RF
Message continuously being generated by SIMRAN Locomotive Equipment (which
contains information like its Location Co-ordinates, Time & Speed) will be received by
LC Gate Equipment and decoded so that the location of train from the LC Gate to
generate Audio-Visual Warning to Road Users.
RF Message generated by SIMRAN Locomotive Equipment shall be received by
Unmanned LC Gate atleast from a distance of 2 Km. Main Processing Unit(MPU) to be
installed at Unmanned Level Crossing Gate shall comprise of RF Transceivers, Central
Processing Unit, Memory, I/O Interfaces, etc.
The GSM network used here is of BSNL and Airtel because of its widespread
connectivity. Both the network SIM are present in this equipment and uses the master-
slave relationship so that if one networks goes out of range the other one takes over.
Each equipment box is assigned with a particular code along with each stations or LC
gate crossing. Whenever the locomotive approaches the station or LC gate SIMRAN
sends the location i.e basically the Latitude & Longitude to the central Server in the
encoded form and then it is made available to the public for real time train update.
The data which SIMRAN provide includes Train Speed, Closest Station, Next Stop and
Train Status.

10. WORKING OF SIGNALING AT RAILWAYS
10.1 Signals:
These have aspects and indications where aspect is the visual appearance of the signal and
the indication is the meaning. Different railroads historically assigned different meanings to
the same aspect, so it is common as a result of mergers to find that different divisions of a
modern railroad may have different rules governing the interpretation of signal aspects.
Types of signals
Color signals
The color of each individual light is subsumed in the overall pattern. For example, it is
common to see a "Clear" aspect consisting of a green light above a red light. The red light
in this instance does not indicate "Stop"; it is simply a component of a larger aspect.
Operating rules specify that when there is some error in the display of an aspect the
indication should be read as the most restrictive indication consistent with what is
displayed.
Page22
7/27/2019 Ankur Prasad_Industrial Training Report
23/36
They convey information about the state of the next signal to be encountered. When a
train is waiting at a signal it is "in rear of" that signal and the danger being protected by
the signal is "in advance of" the train and signal.
10.1 Color light signal
Position Light Signal
It is one where the position of the lights, rather than their color, determines the meaning.
The aspect consists solely of a pattern of illuminated lights, which are all of the same
color In many countries, small position light signals are used as shunting signals, while
the main signals are of color light form.
Page23
7/27/2019 Ankur Prasad_Industrial Training Report
24/36
10.2 Position light signal
Searchlight signals
These are most often used signal type, although these have become less popular due to
vandalism.
In these, a single incandescent light bulbis used in each head, and either
an A.C. orD.C.relay mechanism is used to move a colored spectacle (or "roundel") in
front of the lamp. In this manner, gravity returns the red roundel into the lamp's optical
path.
10.3 Search light signal
10.2 Switching:
Switch consists of a pair of linked tapering rails, known as points lying between the
diverging outer rails. These points can be moved laterally into one of two positions to
make a train coming from the narrow end towards the straight path or the diverging path.
A train moving from the narrow end toward the point blades is said to be executing
a facing-point movement.
Before the switch is locked, a train coming from either of the converging directs will pass

through the points onto the narrow end, regardless of the position of the points, as the
vehicle's wheels will force the points to move.

11. Controlling of Telephone Exchange at R.D.S.O
For controlling and switching R.D.S.O is using CoralFLEXICOM 6000 manufactured
by Tadiram Telecom, Israel.Coral Flexicom 6000 is capable of handling 4000subscribers at a time.
It is a digital, hot standby, redundant, communications switching system.
It is based on Pulse Coded Modulation (PCM) switching technology. The active circuitry
of the system is contained on removable printed circuit assemblies, or cards, nearly all of
which may be used in any system in the series.
The active circuitry of the Coral system is divided into two major functions: Common
Control and Peripheral.
The Common Control circuitry directs call traffic through the system, establishing audio
connections between Peripheral ports.
The Peripheral circuitry provides the hardware necessary to establish those connections.
It uses IDF technology i.e Integrated Distribution Frame technology.
Flexicom 6000 contains various cards which performs specific set of functions depending
on the type and use, some of them are as follows:
11.1 32GC Group Controller Card:
The 32GC card contains the High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC) bus interface
circuitry, Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) bus interface circuitry, clock circuitry to
synchronize the peripheral section of the system, and digital tone generators (dial, busy,
ringing, ringback, DTMF, MFC, and test).
Additionally, the 32GC card contains circuitry to synchronize the Coral peripheral clock
to an external clock derived from a digital trunk interface.
Page26
7/27/2019 Ankur Prasad_Industrial Training Report
27/36
It is capable of establishing a maximum of 2000 calls between ports on its maximum
peripheral shelf capacity. This matrix allows for a constant frame delay operation mode.
The 32GC card also houses the proprietary Mirrored Memory and Switching Matrix
essential for the Hot Standby control system. With this technology, the Standby control
system set snoops relevant information from the Active control system set. With this
information it readies its control card set for takeover of the control functions at any time
it may become necessary.
The voice port for peripheral cards is supported only from the Active32GC card.
The base memory of the 32GC card contains a 2Mbyte memory in which the system
database is housed. The memory is SRAM and is protected by 3V battery backup, so that
data is saved and maintained during power loss.
11.2 32GC Front Panel:
The 32GC front panel includes diagnostic indicators, an SAU(Software Authorization Unit)
interface and a CLA Reset button as shown in Figure 8-13. The items are described below.
Main- Red - lights during card initialization, is not lit when card is functioning properly.
If this indicator is lit, the 32GC is faulty.
A- Flashing Green - lights when this system side is in Active mode, the flashing is slower
when the system is most active.
S- Green - lights when this system side in Standby mode
M- Red - lights when this system side is in Maintenance mode

12. KVM SWITCH
It is an abbreviation for keyboard, video, mouse switch, a hardware device that enables a
single keyboard, video monitor and mouse used for controlling more than one computer at
one time.
These are popular among users who have their home PC systems upgraded and want to still
use their old computers but do not want to invest in a second keyboard, monitor and mouse.
Also used by business to save money when one person uses more than one computer and in
server farms where it is only necessary to periodically access each separate server in the farm
one at a time, they are quite useful.
Page29
7/27/2019 Ankur Prasad_Industrial Training Report
30/36
It is a hardware device which allows a user to control multiple computers from one or more
keyboard, mouse and video monitor. Although there are multiple computers connected to the
KVM but typically a smaller number of computers can be controlled at any given time.
12.1(a. and b.): KVM Switches
Types Of KVM
These are based on different types of core technologies in terms of how the KVM switchhandles USB I/O devices--including keyboards, mouses, touchscreen displays, etc.
12.2: USB based KVM Switch
USB Hub Based KVM: Also called an Enumerated KVM switch, which requires a
connected/shared USB device to go through the full initiation process every time the
KVM is switched to another target system/port. This switching to different ports is just as
if someone were to physically plug and unplug a USB device into their targeted system.
Page30
7/27/2019 Ankur Prasad_Industrial Training Report
31/36
Emulated USB KVM: Here, to emulate special sets of USB keyboard or mouse
switching control information to each connected/targeted system, dedicated USB console
port(s) are assigned. Emulated USB provides an instantaneous and reliable switching
action that makes mouse switching and keyboard hotkeys possible.
Use
The KVM switches are useful where there are multiple computers, but there is no need
for a dedicated monitor, keyboard and mouse for each one.
These are frequently used in the data-centers where multiple servers are placed into a
single rack with a single monitor, keyboard and mouse.
These then allows data center personnel to connect to any of the servers in the rack. An
example of home use is to enable the use of the full-size keyboard, monitor and mouse of
the home PC with a portable device such as a tablet PC, laptop or PDA, or a computer
using a different operating system is common.
14. LAN EXTENDER
The LAN extender (also network Ethernet extender) is any device that is used to extend a
network segment beyond the inherent distance limitation specified for it which is
approximately 100 Mtr. (330 ft) for most of the common forms of twisted pair Ethernet.
A LAN (Local Area Network) extender is such a device which is used to forward traffic
between LANs that are transparent to the higher network-layer protocols over the extensive
distances, which do go beyond the limits of standard Ethernet. Some other devices used in
LANs excluding the LAN extenders include bridges, repeaters, hubs, switches and routers.
These devices do employ a huge variety of transmission technologies and also physical media
(wireless, fiber-optic cable, coaxial cable, copper wire,).

15. CORE SWITCH
It is also known as a tandem or a backbone switch.
In a public WAN, a core switch is the one that interconnects the edge switches that are
positioned on the edges of the related networks. In a local area network (LAN), this switch
does the work of interconnecting work group switches, which are relatively the low-capacity
switches that are usually positioned into geographic clusters.
As the name suggests, core switch is central to the network and also needs to have a
significant capacity to handle the load that is sent to it. There is not a precise definition

explaining as to how powerful is this, but it is clear that it is much bigger than the average
desktop switch.

16. SWITCHES
Managed switches are the ones that use Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) to
supply the owner with a good variety of intelligence regarding the operating speeds traffic
flow and bandwidth potentials. Individuals who use these networks often share and also edit
expansive files that need maximum bandwidth for the data transfers. With the help of these
switches the user can customize each of the connections, adding and reducing the speeds
necessary to provide an efficient system performance.
This very unique design gives you a control over each of the switch ports, providing the
information about who can access the shared LAN also communication and connectionspeeds. One can activate certain ports when they are needed and then turn them off to prevent

the outside users from connecting to your network. These are specifically designed switches
to optimize performance and security in an Ethernet based system.

Layer 1
A network hub, or a repeater, is a simple network device. The Repeater hubs do not manage
the traffic that comes through them. Any packet that enters a port is flooded out or "repeated"
on every of the other port, except for just the port of entry. Since, every packet is repeated on
the every other port, packet collisions do affect the entire network, thereby limiting its
capacity. There are also specialized applications where a hub can be useful, eg: copying the
traffic to multiple network sensors. High end switches do have a feature which enables the
same thing called port mirroring.
Layer 2

A network bridge that operates at data link layer, may interconnect some small number of
devices in home or office. This is known as a trivial case of bridging, where the bridge learns
the MAC address of each of the connected devices.
Single bridges can also provide extremely high performance in some specialized applications
such as of storage area networks.
Managed switches- These have one or more ways or interfaces, for modifying the operation
of the switch. Common methods include:
- a serial console or Command Line Interface accessed via telnet or a Secure Shell;
- an embedded Simple Network Management Protocol SNMP agent that allows
management from a remote console or a management station;
- a web interface for management from a web browser.
CONCLUSION
This 4 week summer training in Telecommunication Lab at Research Development &
Standard Organization, Lucknow which is an organization of Ministry of Railways has
provided me with an immense and deep knowledge about the working and functioning of
various types communication channels that forms the backbone of Indian Railways.
Getting a hand on demonstration of various equipment which is currently being deployed and
which is yet to be deployed is the best part of this training. Since, the equipments listed here
is not easily available and accessible to the common public. Furthermore, getting knowledge

of I.T, OFCs, surveillance services, network services, WiMax and working of Switching
cards at telephone exchange is yet an other achievement to be embarked which helped me in
boosting up of my technical knowledge and skills. Thus helping me to understand the various
communication setups of Indian Railways in a better way.
