Abstract

This paper deals with the informatization of railway freight wagon using elements of IoT for monitoring the technical condition of selected elements of the chassis. The introduction is devoted to the current state of the issue of maintenance of rail freight wagons. The core of the paper is a technical solution for collecting, storing and analyzing data about the technical condition of the chassis with the use of RFID technology. Where are described each joints of technical solutions. Further discusses about the detailed monitoring of an error condition of bearing chamber by using RFID technology. In the conclusion is evaluated the technical solution using elements of the IoT and its possible impact on the safety of rail freight transport.
