It is used to avoid traffics in toll plaza and also it saves the fuel. For this at first we have fix an RFID tag in each vehicle when a person buys a new vehicle. [2]The tag is unique for each vehicle and we have to load the database in the RTO office. The RFID tag is linked with prepaid account to deduct the amount required for passing the toll plaza. In existing method they have used RFID tag and GSM module. In proposed method we have included a gate sensor to stop the vehicle when there is no money in their toll account. After passing the toll plaza the deducted amount will be sent as an SMS to the mobile number which is synced with prepaid account using GSM. By using this ETC(Electronic toll plaza collection) the traveller doesn t need to stand in a long queue for paying the amount of the toll plaza. Since, the electronic toll plaza is used to reduce manpower, time and fuel of the traveller. Keywords: ARDUINO UNO,RFID TAG, RFID READER, GSM, GATE SENSOR. 1. Introduction The main concept of the project is to avoid the long queue and the traffics in the toll plaza. The transportation process is improved in our country. By using the electronic toll plaza collection the vehicles doesn t need to stand in a long queue. For this process he/she need s to load the data in the RTO office while buying a new car or some other time.the RFID tag is placed in the bottom of the vehicle and proximity sensor is placed in the road. While the vehicle comes to the toll plaza the sensors detects the type of the vehicle and deducts the amount required for the vehicle from their prepaid toll account. After the deduction of amount the gate will be opened for the traveller. Incase of no money in the account the user can pay amount in the toll palaza and extra amount for future use. By using the RTO office s database the vehicle s will be detected easily and deducts the amount from their toll account. 2. Working Principle In our project, we have a vehicle equipped with RFID tag and computer connected to proximity sensor and GSM module at the Toll station. Whenever the vehicle enters into the coverage area of the rfid reader, it locates the tag and decodes the code assigned to that particular tag. After receiving the code, it is forwarded to the computer situated at the Toll station. The computer then recognizes the code and automatically access the database and if the vehicle has its valid prepaid account at the toll station, the appropriate toll is deducted from that account and the gate is opened to allow the vehicle to pass. And if the vehicle doesn t have a valid prepaid account it will have to pass through a manual check post which will be in another lane. By using the database we can avoid necessity to transmit entire data from tag thus enabling us to use tag with very less memory requirement, that we store only 4 or 6 digit code number in the Tag. And this 4 or 6 digit code is related to the database which is related to the database which is present on the computer. Each Tag has different code number. It also reduces error probability and saves processing time. 3. Existing Method In this existing method we have to enter the data s through manual process and collect the required amount from the traveller and should give the correct balance amount to the traveller this may take few 473

2 minutes for processing. Existing system of toll tax collection shown in Fig:1. This process makes other traveller to wait in the queue for long time and consumption of petrol is also high. [8]The major problem in the toll plaza is the balance cash to be given to the traveller.there are two methods of collecting tax presently used they are First is the traditional manual method where one person collects money and issues a receipt. The other one is the Smart Card method where the person needs to show the smart card to the system installed at the toll tax department to open the Gate. Figure 1. Existing system of toll tax collection 4. Proposed Method In this paper we have used automatic toll collection system by using a RFID tag and GSM module. By the proposed method has simple procedure to collect the toll payment to passenger without wastage of time. A passive tag is an RFID tag that does not contain a battery. The power is supplied by the reader. The main advantage of a passive tag is that the tag functions without a battery. Passive tags have a useful life of twenty years or more. The tag is typically much less expensive and smaller. The proposed system features are as follows. [3]By using the RFID TAG reader and GSM module. automatic toll collection system uses passive RFID technology(passive tag). A passive tag is an RFID tag that does not contain a battery. The power is supplied by the reader. The main advantage of a passive tag is that the tag functions without a battery. Passive tags have a useful life of twenty years or more. The tag is typically much less expensive and smaller. RFID toll tax collection shown in fig:2. 5. Methodology [4]Whenever any person buys a vehicle, first he/she needs to do her vehicle registered at the RTO office. RTO people will assign a number plate to it along with it they will give a RFID enabled tag. This card will have a unique ID to use with that vehicle only. They will also create an account for that particular prepaid card and maintain transaction history in database. Owner of the vehicle needs to deposit some minimum amount to this account. Every time a registered vehicle approaches the toll booth, first the rfid reader will detect the presence of the vehicle which in turn activate the RFID circuit to read the RFID enable card fixed on the vehicle. Transaction will begin, depending upon the balance available toll will be deducted directly or the vehicle will be directed towards another lane to pay tax manually. The software further updates the details in the centralized database server. It also send SMS generate the bill and will be sent to user as a text message using GSM module. On the other hand, whenever any vehicle owner registers a complaint at the RTO office regarding theft of the vehicle respective entry is made in the database. [5]Now any vehicle arriving at toll booth with same ID as already present in stolen vehicle category will be easily identified as the ID assigned with it is unique. All the toll plazas will be connected to each other along with the centralized server in the form of LAN. Updates of any sort of transaction will be immediately updated to local database and centralized server. RFID READ RFID TAG LIMIT SWITCH 6.

A radio frequency reader scans the tag for data and sends the information to a database, which stores the data contained on the tag. The main technology components of a Radio Frequency Identification system are the tag and Reader. The components are 7.1 ARDUINO UNO 7.2 GSM MODEM 7.3 RFID READER 7.4 RFID TAG data, each in its own time slot. It operates at either the 900 MHz or 1800 MHz frequency band. Since many GSM network operators have roaming agreements with foreign operators, users can often continue to use their mobile phones when they travel to other countries. SIM cards (Subscriber Identity Module) holding home network access configurations may be switched to those will meter local access, significantly reducing roaming costs while experiencing no reductions in service. 7.1 Arduino UNO Arduino is an open-source electronics platform based on easy-to-use hardware and software. Arduino boards are able to read inputs - light on a sensor, a finger on a button, or a Twitter message - and turn it into an output - activating a motor, turning on an LED, publishing something online. You can tell your board what to do by sending a set of instructions to the microcontroller on the board. To do so you use the Arduino programming language (based on Wiring), and the Arduino Software (IDE), based on Processing. 7.3 RFID Reader Figure 5: GSM Modem [6]In order for an RFID system to function, it needs a reader, or scanning device, that is capable of reliably reading the tags and communicating the results to a database. A reader uses its own antenna to communicate with the tag. When a reader broadcasts radio waves, all tags designated to respond to that frequency and within range will respond. A reader also has the capability to communicate with the tag without a direct line of sight, depending on the radio frequency and the type of tag (active, passive, or semi passive) used. Readers can process multiple items at once, allowing for increased read processing times. Figure 4:Arduino UNO 7.2 GSM Modem GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications, originally Group Special Mobile), is a standard developed by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) to describe protocols for second generation (2G) digital cellular networks used by mobile phones. GSM supports voice calls and data transfer speeds of up to 9.6 kbps, together with the transmission of SMS (Short Message Service).GSM uses a variation of time division multiple access (TDMA) and is the most widely used of the three digital wireless telephony technologies (TDMA, GSM, and CDMA). GSM digitizes and compresses data, then sends it down a channel with two other streams of user 7.4 RFID Tag Figure 6:RFID Reader Module(EM-18) An RFID tag, or transponder, consists of a chip and an antenna. [7]A chip can store a unique serial number or other information based on the tag s type of memory, which can be read-only, read-write, or write once read-many (WORM). The antenna, which is attached to the microchip, transmits information from the chip to the reader. Typically, a larger antenna indicates a longer read range. The tag is attached to or embedded in an object to be identified. 475
