Development of Front end Communication System for Traffic Congestion Monitoring System

Athira Vijayan, Liju Philip, Vinod P R, Shijin P V

The paper provides the design and implementation strategy for the fully automated front end communication infrastructure for detection of traffic congestion in a junction and convey the message to the vehicle likely to pass that junction. Poles are placed along the roadside in which communication modules are installed. Similarly communication modules are installed in all vehicles as well. Pole modules will read the vehicle Identification number from the vehicle and transfer this data to a database in a Central server. The central server utilizes these data to determine the traffic congestion status of the road network by following a specific algorithm and convey the congestion status to the vehicle through the pole. The mode of communication realized in the system is wireless and wired.
