Expressways electronic fares payment system by using RFID technology

Abstract

This project is about to develop an expressways electronic fares payment system by using Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) application. The beneficial values for this project are to create an easy going payment system which can be done in short time and easy method to reload the tag card value. RFID is a system and device that can be receive or transmit data by the radio receiver and radio transmitter, process the data and then store the data at memory. The system enables the users to add amount and deduct the fares to the tag card when traveled using paid expressways. The users need to tap the RFID tag (pre-paid card) on a sensor panel (RFID reader) provided at the expressway lanes for instant fares payment and at the same time can be reload the electronic cash value in their RFID tag card automatically also on the same sensor panel at the same expressways lane (if the current balance in the tag card has less value). The sensor panel (RFID reader) is capable to perform dual function which deduct and reload value is extremely a user friendly system.
