The document presents a smart traffic control system that measures traffic density and prioritizes emergency vehicles using a sensor network and RF communication. It outlines the system's components, working mechanism, implementation steps, and the advantages of improved traffic flow. The conclusion highlights the potential for reducing traffic congestion through the configuration of the traffic control system.
INTRODUCTION
Traffic congestionis a severe problem in many major
cities across the world.
We developed a traffic control system, which can
measure both traffic load and emergency vehicles .
We implemented a sensor network work which is used to
detect the traffic density.
A RF based communication system is used for getting
information from the emergency vehicle.

PIC16F877A
This microcontroller is very convenient to use.
The coding or programming of this controller is also
easier.
It can be write-erase as many times as possible.
It has a total number of 40 pins and there are 33
pins for input and output.
. It is used in remote sensors, security and safety
devices, home automation etc.
IR SENSOR
o Usedfor object detection using which the system
gets an input of the traffic density.
o Traffic density is measured as “low, medium and
high.
o The system adjusts and varies the traffic signal
duration for that particular way.

POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT
It convert one form of electrical energy to another
Transformer convert the input voltage to a higher
or lower AC voltage.
Rectifier convert the transformer output voltage to
a varying DC voltage.
Filter convert it to an unregulated DC voltage.

RF MODULE
Itcomprises of an RF Transmitter and an RF
Receiver.
HT12E Encoder IC will convert the 4 bit parallel
data given to pins D0 – D3 to serial data and will be
available at DOUT.
This output serial data is given to ASK RF
Transmitter.
. HT12D decoder will convert the received serial
data to 4 bit parallel data D0 – D3.

TRAFFIC LIGHTS
Thered signal prohibits any traffic from proceeding.
The amber (yellow) light warns that the signals is
about to change to red.
The green light allows traffic to proceed in the
direction denoted.
Blue LEDs are provide in each lane for the arrival
of any emergency
10
Consider ajunction where three lights (green,
amber and red) are arranged on all four sides.
Three sensors placed at each road , marks low,
medium and high density zones respectively
High density traffic there will be more allotment of
time and for low density low time respectively.
In other side it is continously monitors the RF
receiver information.

ADVANTAGES
Better thantime based traffic control.
Save considerable amount of time
Avoid traffic jams which causes public
inconvenience
No need of traffic inspector at the junctions

LIMITATIONS
IR sensorssometimes may absorb normal light
also.
IR sensors work only for fewer distances.
Should arrange in accurate manner otherwise they
may not detect the traffic density.

APPLICATIONS
Avoids wastageof time due to the traffic
Fully automatic
Low power consumption
It provides the easy access in the traffic light.
Low cost to design the circuit, maintenance of the
circuit is good
Easy convenience to handle

CONCLUSION
By usingthis system configuration we can reduce the
possibilities of traffic jams.
The number of passing vehicles on the road decides the
density range of traffics and on the basis of vehicle
count microcontroller decides the traffic light delays.
Traffic load and emergency vehicles are continuously
measured by sensors connected to a microcontroller-
based system which also performs all intersection control
functions.
