RF ID BASED AUTOMATIC CAR PARKING



    VEHICLE  PARKING  SYSTEM  AUTOMATION  USING  RF ID

 In today’s world, there is a continuous need for automatic appliances with the increase in standard of living. There is a sense of urgency for developing circuits that would ease the complexity of life. Automation is intended to reduce manpower with the help of intelligent systems. There has been a considerable amount of reduction in transaction costs and decrease in stock shortage with the use of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology in automation. Most of the RFID networks include a wide range of automation technologies. These technologies are RFID readers, RFID writers, RFID barcode scanners, RFID smart sensors and RFID controllers. 

In this study, a solution has been provided for the problems encountered in parking-lot management systems via RFID technology. RFID readers, RFID labels, computers, barriers and software are used as for the main components of the RFID technology. The software has been handled for the management, controlling, transaction reporting and operation tasks for parking lots located on various parts of the city. Check-ins and check-outs of the parking-lots will be under control with RFID readers, labels and barriers.  

Radio-frequency identification is an automatic identification method wherein the data stored on RFID tags or transponders is remotely retrieved.  RFID tag is a device that can be attached to or incorporated into a product, animal or person for identification and tracking using radio waves. Some tags can be read from several meters away, beyond the line of sight of the reader. RFID technology can be used in vehicle parking systems of malls and buildings.

The system normally consists of a microcontroller, vehicle counter, sensors, display board, gate controller, RFID tags and RFID reader. In order to use the “RFID BASED CAR PARKING”, the vehicle owner has to register his vehicle with parking owner and get a RFID tag. To park the car, RFID tag is placed near RFID reader which is installed near the entry gate of parking lot. As soon as RFID tag is read by the reader, system automatically deducts the specified amount from that RFID tag and entry gate boomer opens to allow the car inside the parking area. At the same time parking counter increments by one. Deducted amount for parking, balance amount of that RFID tag and the parking status are all displayed in LCD 

Similarly when a car leaves the parking area, the door is opened at the exit gate. The parking counter is decremented. No amount will be deducted at the time of exit. The system also offers the facility to recharge the amount for each RFID tag. No manual processing is involved. In addition, the system provides security.   
Personnel costs will be reduced considerably using this technology. It will be possible to see unmanned, secure, automized parking-lots functioning with RFID technology in the future. Check-ins and check-outs will be handled in a fast manner without having to stop the cars so that traffic jam problem will be avoided during these processes. Drivers will not have to stop at the circulation points and parking tickets will be out of usage during check-ins and check-outs. It will be avoided ticket-jamming problems for the ticket processing machines as well. 

Vehicle owners will not have to make any payments at each check-out thus a faster traffic flow will be possible. Since there won't be any waiting during check-ins and check-outs the formation of emission gas as a result of such waiting will be avoided. An automized income tracking system, a car tracking system for charging and a central parking-car tracking system have been developed and utilized. Instead of cars' parking on streets, a more modern and a fast operating parking-lot system have been developed.
