Abstract

Wireless Sensor Networks is used to monitor physical and environmental conditions, originated from military and heavy industrial applications. Module is developed for bus transportation to utilize digital money for transaction. Each individual will have their own RFID tag which is known as Public Transportation Card (PTC). RFID reader is fitted at the entry door of the bus which reads the PTC of a passenger and allows him in, only if his card has a sufficient balance to travel. Using GPS the bus location is tracked and the current stop name is displayed on the RFID reader module. In the exit door, the same module is fitted inside the bus and the same process is repeated following this, the ticket cost is deducted from their PTC. These two modules interact with each other using ZIGBEE technology in which the first module sends the location where the passenger hired the bus to the second module and from that it calculates the distance and the money from the card is withdrawn. If the travelling charge exceeds the balance then the excess amount goes as negative balance in their card. This technology prevents man power and automatizes the ticket fare collection.
