IoT Based Traffic Prediction and Traffic Signal Control System for Smart City

Abstract Because of the population increasing so high, and traffic density remaining the same, traffic prediction has become a great challenge today. Creating a higher degree of communication in automobiles results in the time wastage, fuel wastage, environmental damage, and even death caused by citizens being trapped in the middle of traffic. Only a few researchers work in traffic congestion prediction and control systems, but it may provide less accuracy. So, this paper proposed an efficient IoT based traffic prediction using OWENN algorithm and traffic signal control system using Intel 80286 microprocessor for a smart city. The proposed system consists of '5' phases, namely, IoT data collection, feature extraction, classification, optimized traffic IoT values, and traffic signal control system. Initially, the IoT traffic data is collected from the dataset. After that, traffic, weather, and direction information are extracted, and these extracted features are given as input to the OWENN classifier, which classifies which place has more traffic. Suppose one direction of the place has more traffic, it optimizes the IoT values by using IBSO, and finally, the traffic is controlled by using Intel 80286 microprocessor. The experimental results show that the proposed system outperforms state-of-the-art methods.
