This document describes a wireless traffic light priority control system for emergency vehicles. The system has a transmitter section in emergency vehicles that sends signals to a receiver section connected to traffic lights. The transmitter section consists of switches to select light directions, an encoder to convert switch signals to radio waves, and an RF transmitter. The receiver section has an RF receiver to get signals, a decoder to convert them to microcontroller input, an AT89S52 microcontroller to control lights, and LED indicators representing traffic lights. The system is intended to prioritize green lights for emergency vehicles to reduce traffic delays.

INTRODUCTION:
Traffic controlhas become a major problem on the roads of many
cities in India.
Some emergency vehicles like Ambulances, Fire Brigades
and some important Security conveys get stuck in the traffic and
have to wait which is not desirable.
The main aim of the project is to provide a wireless control
system to these emergency vehicles which controls the traffic
light signals.
BLOCK DIAGRAM:
Theblock diagram mainly consists of two sections.
They are :
1.Transmitter Section 2. Receiver Section
Switch Pad RF Receiver Module
HT12E Encoder HT12D Decoder
RF Transmitter Module AT89S52 Microcontroller
LED Indicators

TRANSMITTER SECTION:
Thetransmitter section mainly consists of
a) Switch Pad b) HT12E Encoder c) RF Transmitter module.
The Switch pad consists of 4 buttons representing the 4
directions at a traffic junction.
The switch button type used here is Push button switch. For
easy mechanism we can use Selector type switch also.

TRANSMITTER SECTION:
Thenext block is the signal Encoder HT12E.
HT represents Holtek Semiconductor Inc and 12E
represents the 212
series of Encoders.
It converts the parallel information from switch pad into
serial for RF transmission.
Features:
8 Address pins and 4 Address/Data pins.
Low power consumption.
Highly immune to noise.
Low stand by current (0.1uA) at VDD = 5V. .
Minimum transmission of four words.

TRANSMITTER SECTION
Thenext block is RF Transmitter module TWS - 434.
The frequency of the RF signal used in the project is
434 MHz
The modulation technique used is ASK
Features of the TWS transmitter are:
Operating Frequency : 433.92 MHz
Operating voltage: 1.5-12 V
Output power: 8mW
Operating range: 200 ft
Transfer rate: 3 kbps
POWER SUPPLY:
Operation:
1. Initially230 V AC supply is reduced to (0-9V) with the help of a
step down transformer having a capacity of 500mA.
2. This low voltage is rectified with the help of bridge rectifier. The
ripples are minimized with the help of capacitor filter to get a
smooth DC supply. The rating of the chosen capacitor filter is
1000µF
3. The regulated DC voltage is obtained by using a regulator IC
7805
4. Another capacitor filter of rating 10µF is connected at the output
of regulator IC to eliminate the voltage oscillations at the output due
to the large voltage oscillations at the input of the regulator

RECEIVER SECTION:
TheRF signal transmitted reaches the receiver section
and controls the traffic lights.
The receiver section works on 5V DC output of the power
supply block.
The receiver section has got 4 main components.
