 INTRODUCTION

The Traffic Pulse network is the foundation for all of Mobility

Technologies® applications. This network uses a process of
data collection, data processing, and data distribution to
generate the most unique traffic information in the industry.
Digital Traffic Pulse® collects data through a sensor
network, processes and stores the data in a data center,
and distributes that data through a wide range of
applications.

1. Sensor network :- heart of the technology

2. Data streams :- way of processing data
3. Data transmission :-optical cable, satellite etc.
 Sensor Network
Def :-A sensor network consists of spatially distributed autonomous sensors to cooperatively
monitor physical or environmental conditions. They are now used in m a n y industrial and civilian
application areas, including industrial process monitoring and control, machi ne health monitoring,
environment and habitat monitoring, ho me automation, and traffic control.

In addition to one or more

sensors, each node in a sensor
network is typically equipped with
a radio transceiver or other
wireless
communications device, a
small microcontroller, and an energy
source, usually a battery. The cost of
sensor nodes is similarly variable,
ranging from hundreds of dollars to a
few pennies, depending on the size of
the sensor network and the

 Tools offered by traffic pulse
technology
* Telematics - for mobile professionals and
others, Mobility Technologies traffic information
complements in-vehicle navigation devices,
informing drivers not only how to get from point A
to point B but how long it will take to get there —
or even direct them to an alternate route.
* Media - for radio and TV broadcasters, cable
operators, and advertisers who sponsor local
programming, Traffic Pulse Networks
