Optimizing RFID-Based Toll Gate System: A Novel Approach to Reducing Latency and Enhancing Traffic Flow
Abstract: This study presents a novel approach aimed at boosting the efficiency of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) based toll gate systems. Traditional RFID-based toll gates function by reading the RFID data from the vehicle, fetching the corresponding user information from a centralized server, and subsequently deducting the toll amount from the user’s account. This process, while effective, inherently introduces a latency period. This latency, particularly during peak hours, can result in …
