Lgec004: Automatic on Route Bus Tracking System Millions of Travelers Travel by Bus Daily in Our Country

Lgec004: Automatic on route Bus tracking system Millions of travelers travel by bus daily in our country. Travelers frequently face problems of waiting long hours at bus stop without knowing when the next bus will arrive or without getting enough information about the bus coming/leaving from bus station. This is because buses are not traced when they are on route. Even when the bus is at the station conductor has to informed stationmaster about bus arrival. This has caused huge inconvenience to passengers traveling by buses. If vehicle tracking system which uses RF technology to track/predict when the next bus will arrive at any given bus stop, thereby eliminating wait times and any need for schedules for all riders. Riders at the bus stop will know which and when the next bus will arrive at the bus stop. Automatically managing the arrival, departure related information of all the buses. Automating and integrating all the information related devices thus automatically displaying all the information to the travelers at various bus stops. This system is developed not only for buses, but also for trams, light rail operations and other public transportation vehicles.

DESCRIPTION

The complete working of RFID based bus identification system can be divided in the following blocks for easier understanding:

1. RFID TAG : This tag is essentially a RF transmitter that transmits encoded signals. It can be further classified into following parts:

 UNIQUE IDENTIFICATION CODE (UIC): This part is unique for every RF Tag. It creates a unique code that is used to identify the tag when the data is read by RF reader. The UIC used here is a 4 bit data. Thus this UIC can be used for unique identification of at most 15 different things.

 ENCODER : This part converts the UIC into an encrypted data that can be transmitted over RF channels. The encoder used here is HT12E which can be used to encrypt 4 bit data. The encrypted data is a serial digital signal.

 TRANSMITTER: This part takes the encrypted data from transmitter and transmits it in form of Radio Frequency. The transmitter used here is ASK 315 MHz RF-TX modules.

 POWER SUPPLY BLOCK : This consist a 12V power supply source and a power regulator (7805) to get 5v power supply. This 5v supply drives the transmitter and the encoder.

2. RFID RECIEVER :

This reader is basically a RF receiver that receives encoded signals decodes them and displays the tag number on the displaying unit. It can be further classified into following parts:

 RECIEVER: It receives the encrypted data in form of RF waves and converts it into electronic signals. The receiver used here is ASK 315 MHz RF-RX modules.

 DECODER: This part decrypts the data to yield the UIC of the tag. This UIC is fed into the microcontroller. HT12D has been used here which is compatible with HT12E module. The output is the UIC of the Tag in a 4 bit format. www.Labsguru.com Lucknow Branch: 3rd floor, Vaibhav Complex, Maruti Puram, Opposite Lekhraj Khazana, Faizabad Road, Lucknow-226 016, Phone: 09793202258/0522 3294128, Mumbai Branch: Mobile: 09793202258/022 32096033  MICROCONTROLLER : Microcontroller takes the UIC data from the decoder. Based on this data it deciphers the source of the signal. It then displays this data and the source on the Display Unit. The microcontroller used in this project is AT89s8253.

 DISPLAY UNIT: It is 16*2 LCD that shows the Tag ID number as instructed by the microcontroller.

 POWER SUPPLY BLOCK : This consist a 12V power supply source and a power regulator (7805) to get 5v power supply. This 5v supply drives the receiver, decoder microcontroller and the LCD.
