Abstract :
The concept of a smart railroad wagon including train communication systems is proposed in this paper. This smart wagon is based on the concept of smart sensors and could increase the railroad safety level. Indeed, adding new functions and communication systems to a wagon reduces the risk of freight railroad accidents. In this paper, a model of this railroad wagon is presented and is illustrated.
