A Study on Vehicle Tracking System for Intelligent Transport System

In this paper, we propose a method about the extraction of vehicle and tracking trajectory for moving vehicle tracking system in road. This system applied to the monitoring system of the traffic flow for ATMS(advanced traffic management system) of ITS(intelligent transport system). Also, this system can solve the problem of maintenance of loop sensor. And we detected vehicle using differential image analysis. Because of the road environment changes by real time. Therefore, the method to use background image is not suitable. And we used Kalman filter and innovation value and variable search area for vehicle tracking system. Previous method using fixed search area is sensitive to the moving trajectory and the speed of vehicle. Simulation results show that proposed method increases the possibility of traffic measurement more than fixed area traffic measurement system.
