Simulation of RFID Based Parking System

Abstract

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is most wide used technique in the process of determining tagged items. The aim of this article is to simulate a parking system with central unit which might be ready to manage the readers, and process the information gathered from the reader(s). The proposed system supposes there is a park unit with a number of licensed cars owned by a particular company or any institute, therefor only the licensed cars (with tag) will enter the park. The software system use a Data base to store car's ID and different information with a Graphical User Interface (GUI) to manipulate the data which was designed by Visual Basic (VB 6.0). The operation of reading tags was simulated using Rifidi Emulator platform.
