Dynamic Traffic Control System using RFID Technology: A Systematic Review

Abstract: Internet of Things (IoT) links the real world objects to the virtual world, and enables every time, everywhere connectivity for anything that can be switched ON/OFF. It constitutes to a world where physical things and human beings, as well as virtual data and environments, interact with each other. Traffic in urban areas is increasing day by day which leads to most critical issues of traffic management. Traffic congestion often causes loss of time, time delay, missed opportunities, etc. To overcome these problems proposed system uses the RFID technology where RFID tag is attached to each vehicle and as and when vehicle reach the traffic junction the RFID reader will read those RFID tags. Depending upon the count of vehicles green passage will be set dynamically and the proposed system provides special privileges for emergency vehicles like police vehicle, ambulance, VIP vehicles, etc. RFID also enforces law against stolen vehicles.

Keywords: RFID tag, RFID reader, Ardunio microcontroller, IR sensor.
