RFID AND GSM BASED AUTOMATIC RATIONING SYSTEM USING MICROCONTROLLER ATMEGA 328

Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering

Nowadays ration card is very essential for every home and used for various field. Huge amount of Govt. money gets wasted due to corruption in the traditional Ration Distribution System. The main motto of the designed this system is the automation of ration shop to provide transparency [1]. All the people having a ration card to buy the various materials (sugar, rice, kerosene, etc.) from the ration shop. But in this system having some draw backs, first one is weight of the material may be incorrect due to human mistakes and secondly, the ration shop owner improperly uses consumer materials (Sugar, Rice, , Kerosene, etc.) without previously knowledge of ration card holders. [2] In this paper, proposed an Automatic Ration Materials Distribution Based on GSM (Global System for Mobile) and RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technology preferably of ration card. [3] Customer needs to scan tag to RFID reader, then microcontroller check the customer’s identity no. and all details in the smart card. After successful verification, customer needs to enter type of material as well as quantity of material using keypad after receiving materials to customer, the microcontroller sends the information to government office and customer through GSM technology. Efforts are put together from our side to avoid corruption and to have better management of public distribution system.
