Intelligent Vehicle Parking System to overcome Congestion

Abstract

The new developed technologies are helpingman to lead a comfortable life. But sometimes these can become troublesome and cause a lot of problems. Parking is an increasingly difficult problem for many drivers in crowded cities. Parking space management plays a major role in urban transport planning process. As the number of vehicles are increasing day by day in rapid manner, it causes problem of traffic congestion, pollution (air and noise), etc. To overcome this problem, a parking system is implemented using Verilog HDL in this case. It uses Finite State Machine Modelling. To overcome this problem, a parking system is implemented using Verilog HDL in this case. It uses Finite State Machine Modelling. The rule of thumb that is used for parking the vehicles in the parking lot is user authorization. Each user is provided with an authorization card which has details like owner name, vehicle number, etc. So when a car wants to enter, first the card is verified at entry and then if there are any empty slots, user is allowed else the user is not allowed even the user is authorized person. The result obtained shows that only 0.09 percent of slice registers, 0.23 percent of LUTs, 0.31 percent of slices and 13.21 percent of Bonded IOBs are utilized in this case. Also total power consumed is 1.442 W, which includes 95 percent (1.369 W) of dynamic power and 5 percent (0.073 W) of static power. This model solves the parking issue in urban areas, also provides security to a vehicle and an unauthorized user is not allowed to enter into a parking place.
