Abstract: This paper explores the use of Radio Frequency (RF) signals to detect vehicles that violate traffic signals. The increasing congestion on the road hinders accurate recognition of traffic intruders and, hence, they are not held accountable. Previous efforts to resolve this issue include the use of Computer Vision (CV) algorithms on traffic surveillance footage to identify vehicle registration numbers, Global Positioning System (GPS) to monitor the movement of the vehicle, and intrusive sensors like magnetometers. Unlike other existing methods, RF signals can be transmitted accurately despite hindrances in line-of-sight, and the cost of construction is relatively less. The proposed methodology involves the transmission of vehicular data through RF signals, picked up by receivers placed on-site. This receiver further filters the intruder data using a detection algorithm, and the necessary action is taken. Additionally, this paper presents a generalized system architecture and examines the implementation of violation detection and penalty notification.
