Smart Road Network

Abstract

The system is a network of stations deployed along the roads in a smart city. Every station is a standalone self-powered system working as an element in a huge network which is responsible for controlling the traffic on the road and improve the quality of road service. It is supposed to turn its lights on only whenever vehicles or pedestrians are existed to save power; warn the speedy vehicles by placing various smart road tools to limit their speeds; monitor the road status, recognize the accidents and call for emergency police; send the whole situation to the city central control office; help in keeping roads pollution-free, help older-aged people and do many other magnificent functions. Our proposed system consists of 5 main subsystems; First, Smart lighting system; Second, Road monitoring and Speed measurement system; Third, Speed Control system (Smart speed bump); Fourth, Emergency USB charger, and Fifth, Off-grid Solar power System.
