Abstract
India and most of the developing countries have unplanned cities in which roads are narrow and unkempt. Due to increasing vehicular density, repair of roads and traffic rules violation, traffic congestion is increasing at an alarming rate. Delay in arrival of High Priority Vehicles (HPV) like ambulances and fire engines cause severe loss to life and property. Although most HPVs are equipped with sirens, it is not efficient to guarantee a clear road to HPVs due to its audibility range. Hence, we propose a system by which the vehicles near the traffic junction will be alerted about the oncoming of HPV much in advance of its arrival so that they can make way for the HPV. In this system, every HPV is provided with an active RFID tag. Few kilometers before the main signal, an active RFID reader would be placed which would detect the vehicle and send this information to the display screen placed near the traffic junction signal via LoRa wirelessly, starting to make way for the HPV. Therefore, this project proposes to streamline the traffic and allow HPV to pass easily.
Highlights
With increasing vehicular density day by day on our roads, traffic jams have become a very common problem in metropolitan cities
Vehicles lie stagnant on the road for hours and for High Priority Vehicles (HPV) such as ambulances and fire engines, it is nearly impossible to pass through the traffic congestion
This project develops a system that will recognize a HPV by detecting the active RFID tag allotted to it by the active RFID reader placed a few kilometers before the main traffic signal
Summary
With increasing vehicular density day by day on our roads, traffic jams have become a very common problem in metropolitan cities. Even though the siren of HPV alerts the drivers in a traffic jam, they can’t do much as less space is there for them to give way. This project develops a system that will recognize a HPV by detecting the active RFID tag allotted to it by the active RFID reader placed a few kilometers before the main traffic signal. Reader sends the information of oncoming HPV to the traffic signal at a junction via LoRa transceiver modules.
