DEVELOPMENT OF VEHICLE DETECTION SYSTEM USING GEOMAGNETIC LEVEL SENSOR

Abstract

This paper describes about a detection system for vehicle using a magnetic sensor. This system is used for detection of presence and traveling direction. The magnetic sensor system measuring geomagnetic level signal of a vehicle and is used as one of the sensor detecting a vehicle on a point. In this paper, we focus on the new detection method for traveling direction of a vehicle. First the concept of proposed sensor is explained. A new detection method of the traveling direction of the vehicle is proposed by analyzing the results. Experimental examination on the road was carried out and the results supports that the proposed method is valid for the detection of the direction.
