Abstract

Objectives: To propose a technology to sense the environment without using the dedicated architecture for sensing. Methods/Statistical Analysis: Mobile crowd sensing is a new emerging technology in the field of wireless sensor network environment monitoring. Wireless sensor network monitoring enters a new paradigm with mobile crowd sensing. The technology makes the user to participate in the event and user’s mobile device is used to communicate the data in different environment. The sensing network uses the mobiles of user to collect the data. In our application discussed here we are monitoring the traffic in public transport system. We use the public’s opinion to collect data by an application in their mobiles. Through we are able to know the traffic in road, crowd in the buses, and quality of buses. Findings: We also compared this with normal wireless sensor networks used for monitoring the transport in the roads on comparison we find the MCS provides better sensing than normal wireless sensor networks in the case energy management, memory management and performance improvement. Application/Improvements: The technology can be improved or established in train transport and other public place cleanliness monitoring.
