    Limited has jointly led to the success in the project. People use the smart cards and
    tokens for ticketing.

    Connectivity is the backbone of the entire system, there is a 2 MBPS MPLS connectivity
    in the central control room, 1 mbps MPLS link at depot and all the bus stops are
    connected by 512 MBPS link, with 99% uptime. The location of the Buses is getting
    tracked by the powerful On Board Unit equipped with a GPS antenna, designed by the
    Spanish company GMV Sistemas, named as M-20 unit having GPS Receiver of 20
    Channels. 24 ports, which talks to the Driver control Unit and controls the Driver, driver
    microphone and alarm. It is integrated with PIS and Voice announcement system in the
    bus for the display and announcement of the next bus. The location details are being
    sent to the Central Control Room and bus stops using the GPRS SIM. The Driver
    communicates with the central Control Room through the Driver Control Unit in the
    buses.

    Station Ticket terminal, Access Control System with Station card Validator at entry and
    exit point in the bus stops are the source of fare collections. The bus stops have Touch
    screen based ticketing application, over the POS machines with integrated the Card
    readers and receipt printer. It also has a Cash Till, which is electronically operated.

    Every station has a Station PIS which displays Expected time of arrival of the buses of
    particular routes.

    In the Depot, the depot manager is deployed for uploading the routes in the buses and
    generating the different kinds of reports related to the bus routes, schedules, bus
    dispatch, crew deployment, maintenance management etc. A similar application is also
    deployed in terminals. The Depot management system is regularly interacting with the
    vehicle Scheduling and dispatch system.

    The Central Control room is the Brain of the system, controlling all operations. All the
    software are running in the Control Room. The vehicles can be tracked on Video-walls
    using AVLS Application, which has multi screening facilities.

    Control room consists of a team of people who are continuously tracking the movement
    of the buses. An Incident Tracking system is also an integral part of the control room
    operations, which has EMS, NMS as well as CRM for tracking different kinds of incidents
    and fault management. The Call center also replies to problem or enquiries related to
    fare, buses, schemes, etc. The AFCs data from all the station servers are getting pulled in
    the control room and then it goes to Master sales data where all the data is
    consolidated and then it is been transacted for statistical analysis and report generation.
    These are tallied with financial management system. The financial management system
    or the clearing house application has provisions for budgeting, accounting of revenue
    and expenditure and generation of reports for annual profit and loss and audit.

    The control room also performs the action of Card and Token initialization and
    Personalization of Cards for students and regular commuters.

    BENEFITS OF THE SYSTEM:

     The Automated Vehicle tracking lead to estimate the distance traveled by the
    buses each day. Accordingly revenue can be paid to them. Because AJL pays the
    owners on the basis of distance traveled.
     It also lead to check on fuel consumption and helps in managing the revenue
     This helps in serving the customers better by letting them know the arrival time,
    service duration and service location. It helps to check if the bus has stopped at
    its location or not and whether the bus was on route or deviated from it. If it has
    deviated what was the cause behind it.
     It helps in estimating the average speed of the vehicle, which helps in fuel
    consumption, reduces maintenance cost and checks over accidents, thereby
    saving lots of indirect cost. It helps to control the insurance bills also.

    passengers.
     The contactless cards and tokens are more reliable, maintenance costs will be
    less, transactions are quicker and security is enhanced. Last but not the least,
    greater data storage capacities led the way to new applications.
     It leads to remote surveillance of the revenue generation.
     The alarm system inside the buses and the incident management system in the
    control room provide a considerable level of security to the commuters from any
    untoward incidents and lead to safe and secured journey.
