Abstract

The parking of vehicles by the drivers at inappropriate places is due to the unawareness of proper parking places. In order to control the congestion occurring at the road every day and to park the vehicles at available space, the magnetic sensors are deployed in the appropriate parking places along the road. The neighbouring sensors are within the communication range of each other. A magnetic loop is deployed below the ground detects the presence of the vehicle. The communication between two sensors provides the information about the presence of the vehicle. The information is continuously sensed for a time period t, which is fetched by the driver [user] of the vehicle from the server. Base station serves as the gateway between the sensor network and the server.
