Smart City Signal Management and Theft Vehicle Detection System

Abstract

The population of the world is rising tremendously. When the population increases, there is also a significant rise in the number of vehicles on the road, leading to increased traffic congestion and accidents. It is necessary to clear the traffic during heavy traffic congestion and to provide a special route to the emergency vehicle entering the road junction. To resolve this, a traffic clearance system based on RFID is being proposed which controls traffic and provides a clear path to the emergency vehicle. The proposed system is implemented experimentally using Microcontroller and LED. A signboard also shows the distance to the arrival of an emergency vehicle, which is determined using localization methods. Instead of installing GPS in every emergency vehicle, the RFID Tag is used. The use of GPS requires a clear line of sight with respect to the earthbound satellites as well as costly and power-hungry. The arrival distance of the vehicle is determined based on the signal strength obtained; Also the model finds the stolen vehicle based on the unique id of the vehicle.
