A radio frequency identification application for car theft prevention in parking lot management systems

摘要

Currently, there are many parking lot management systems in use; however, most of them are unsuited to the problem of car theft. For example, a thief can drive a jalopy into a parking lot, and because the gate does not have any mechanism to detect whether the driver is the owner of the car, the gate will be open according merely to whether the driver pays the parking fee. A thief can drive away with a luxurious car away using his own parking ticket. We propose a new scheme to prevent the car theft. We adopt radio frequency identification technology conforming to EPCglobal Class 1 Generation 2 to our scheme design. Our scheme supplies an easy, cheap and high security parking environment for customers and the parking management system. Copyright (c) 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
