Abstract - The main aim of this project is to intimate staff
about their class. In this class technology, which shows the
improvement in technology in a right way’s .GSM (global
system for mobile communication) normallythedatarequired
is been loaded in microcontroller’s ram and the total schedule
of the college is considered here. This is an emerging
technology which is regularly in use Here we design TIME
TABLE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM by using GSM technology for
class room display and to inform faculty with timetable. We
are using the GSM module for transmiting the message; the
message received is send to the microcontroller to display the
information on display board and message will sent to the
faculty for noticing his schedule.

1.INTRODUCTION
The main aim of this project is to intimate staff about their
class. In this system we use GSM modemtocommunicatethe
staff. This is a wireless technology, which shows the
improvement in technology in a right way’s .GSM (global
system for mobile communication) normally the data
required is been loaded in microcontroller’s ram and the
total schedule of the college is considered here. This is an
emerging technology which is regularlyinuse,butdata must
be loaded. normally staff check’s the time table for every
class, by using these system we can over come these typesof
problems. Normally these are placed near HEAD OF THE
DEPARTMENT or any person who assign time table. By this
system, staff - no need to check the time tables every time.
Simply they are been intimated through sms before 10
minutes . In case faculty will not attend for the class
automatically after 10 minutes message will be sent to the
HEAD OF THE DEPARTMENT, then he will take care of the
issue.
1.1 Advantages
 Reduce Paper Work.
 Saves the time with mobile.
1.2 Disadvantages
 In case of GSM, SIM cards, individual authentication keys
users are stored in the authentication centers.
 If the SIM gets lost, one can lose all the data, if the same is
not saved in the phone.

System using Raspberry Pi and RFID.
The above Figure 1 shows that it can be used to know that
whether the faculty member has come to class or not. If the
faculty member doesn’t come to class & swipe in time, the
RFID Reader will sent a message to that particular faculty &
HOD that particular faculty didn’t come to class through RPI
and sends information through RFID Reader. and send the
messages to faculty before 5 minutes using GSM and
Raspberry Pi.

3. HARDWARE GSM MODULE
Figure 2 : Hardware GSM Module
GSM stands forGlobal SystemforMobileCommunicationand
is an open, digital cellular technology used for transmitting
mobile voice and data services. It uses narrowband Time
Division Multiple Access (TDMA) technique for transmitting
signals [1]. TDMA is a technique in which several . different
calls may share the same carrier. Each call is assigned a
particular time slot. A GSM modem is a specialized type of
modem which accepts a SIM card, and operates over a
subscription to a mobile operator, just like a mobile phone.
GSM Modemallows the capability to send and receive SMSto
and from the system. The communication with the system
takes place via RS232 serial port [2]. It works in frequency
band 900MHZ or I800 MHZ, power voltage 3.4V to 4.5V and
baud rateis 300 bps to 115kbps,wherebetween1200to115
kbps is automatically configured [3]. With a tiny
configuration of 40mm x 33mm x 2.85 mm,SIM900can fit
almost all the space requirement in your application, such as
Smart phone, PDA phone and other mobile device.
TheSIM900is designed with power saving technique, the
current consumption to as low as 2.5mA in SLEEP mode.

5. Overview
5.1 RaspberryPi2ModelB
The Raspberry Pi 2Model BisthethirdgenerationRaspberry
Pi. More than 10x faster than the original Raspberry Pi B.
Wireless LAN & Bluetooth have been added to this powerful
credit-card sized single board computer which makes this
ideal for connected & IoT applications . Same footprint &
connections allow easy migration. The new 5V1 2.5A power
supply is required as well as the NOOBS software rev.1.5m
for the RaspberryPi2 ModelB.
5.2 RFID
Radio-frequency identification (RFID) is an automatic
identification method, relying on storing and remotely
retrieving data using devices called RFID tags or
transponders. An RFID tag is an object that can be applied to
or incorporated into a product, animal, or person for the
purpose of identification using radio waves. Some tags can
be read f Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) involves
contactless reading and writing of data into an RFID tag's
nonvolatile memory through an RF signal. An RFID system
consists of an RFID reader and an RFID tag. Thereader emits
an RF signal and data is exchanged when the tag comes in
proximity to the reader signal. The RFID tag derives its
power from the RF reader signal and does not require a
battery or external power source.

5.3 TRANSPONDER TK 5530
The TK5530 isa completetransponder,whichimplementsall
important functions for immobilizer and identification
systems.
Features:
 Identification Transponder in Plastic Cube.
 Basic Component: e5530 IDIC
 Includes Coil and Capacitor for Tuned Circuit Antenna
 Carrier Frequency: 125 kHz
It consists of a plastic cube which accommodates:
 The read-only IDentification Integral Circuit (IDIC)
e5530
 The antenna is realized by a LC-circuit.
Figure 4 : Transponder TK 5530
Antenna:
The antenna consists of a coil and a capacitor for tuning the
circuit to the nominal carrier frequency of 125 kHz. The coil
has a ferrite-core for improving the readout distance.
5.4 PYTHON IDLE
IDLE is Python’s Integrated Development and Learning
Environment.
IDLE has the following features:
 coded in 100% pure Python, using the tkinter GUI tool
kit.
 cross-platform: works mostly the same on Windows,
Unix, and Mac OS X.
 Python shell window (interactive interpreter) with
colorizing of code input, output, and error messages.
 multi-window text editor with multiple undo, Python
colorizing, smart indent, call tips, auto completion,
and other features.
 search within any window, replace within editor
windows, and search through multiple files (grep).
 debugger with persistent breakpoints, stepping,
viewing of global and local namespaces.
 configuration, browsers and other dialogs.
6.Experimental Results

7. CONCLUSIONS
By implementing this method, we can eliminate manual
work that means staff member need not check their time
table every time for next class.Here, we are using Raspberry
Pi, so that we can have many advantages over other boards
like Arduino, Micro Controller etc.Raspberry Pi has many
advantages and features.GSM is used to send the messages
and through RFID Reader we can know whether the faculty
member attend the class in time or not with man. And
Raspberry Pi can operate at low powers i.e 5v.It has 4 USB
Ports where as arduino has only one USB Port. We can store
information through SD card. It has audio and video ports
where as arduino does not have these type of facilities. Cost
of all the components used in this project is less where as
result is high.
