SYSTEM FOR MONITORING AND DECONGESTING TRAFFIC CONGESTION WITH GPS MOBILITY SENSORS

Abstract

The present invention relates to a system for monitoring and decongesting traffic congestion with GPS mobility sensors which capture real time data. The captured data are used to compute congestion levels and evolve decongestion strategies like modulating signal phases or suggesting alternate routes. The signal phases are computed based on un-utilized green phases and cumulative waiting time of vehicles in each direction. The computed signal phases modulate the cycle timings of the traffic signals at every junction. Thus traffic flow is improved by computing the green phase in real time taking into account infrastructural data, vehicular data and congestion level. The drivers of the vehicles are also suggested alternate routes in case of deadlock situation and shortest route for travelling to their destination.
