Abstract
Vehicle monitoring using a wireless sensor network
is considered in this paper, where a new algorithm is proposed for
vehicle detection with magnetic sensors. The proposed algorithm
is based on processing the magnetic signal and thoroughly
analyzing the number/direction of its oscillations. The main
feature of the proposed algorithm over the state-of-the-art ones is
its capability to detect vehicles with different shapes of signatures,
while most state-of-the-art algorithms assume regular shapes of
signatures. This makes the algorithm effective with all types of
magnetic sensors. The proposed algorithm has been implemented
on Micaz sensor motes and tested in real word scenarios. Results
show reliability beyond 93% in all samples, and more than 95%
in most of them.
