Abstract: In day-to-day life, the parking problem is becoming a major issue in human life. Mainly in urban and metropolitan
cities, we face a parking problem, and it becomes a major task to find parking spaces mainly at malls, multiplex, market, etc. It is
more time and fuel consuming. Finding a parking space, it becomes a frustrating moment for a driver. If a driver does not find
any parking space and they park anywhere in a roadside or a restricted area, then the traffic can occur, and the security of the
vehicle becomes a major issue. To overcome this problem, we proposed IoT based parking system using a mobile application.
Using internet technology for connecting physical objects with the help of a mobile phone with Google API, the controller,
sensor, Wi-Fi module, and cloud database to store user data. It helps the user to find a parking space using a mobile application.
Users can book a parking space in advance and help to find the shortest way to reach a parking area. And they park a vehicle on
their specific place and during exit users can pay a parking charge to depend on the time using a mobile application (e-payment).
It saves human time, money, and fuel and provides security to vehicles.

I. INTRODUCTION
Many times, we visit places like temples, malls, cinema halls, etc. we face one of the common issues i.e. parking problems. In urban
or metropolitan cities parking problem is getting increases day by day. Finding a parking space is also one of the difficult tasks or it
becomes a frustrating moment for vehicle drivers. It is more time consuming and fuel consuming. Many times happen if the driver
doesn't get space they parked at any roadside or non-parking zone that can cause traffic or accident can occur. We need a smart
parking system must be developed in our cities to solve the problem of parking. It helps the user/driver to park a vehicle using a
mobile application technology. That is users can easily find parking slots using a mobile application that the space is empty or not.
If space is available users can easily book or allotted a parking slot in advance before the parking and space allotted valid for a
specific time for it. Users can easily pay parking charges online before leaving parking. With the help of the Internet of Things
technology, a smart parking system can develop that can help to improve human life better and easier. An Internet of things (IoT) is
a combined form of Physical or real-life object + sensor, actuator, or microcontroller + Internet = Internet of things (IoT)
The concept of a smart parking system can help to save time and fuel and make a systematic parking system that users can easily
handle using smartphones. In this paper, we will step by step see how we can manage a smart parking system, find parking spaces
for parking, payment methods using a mobile application and how a user can easily be booked a parking space using the mobile
application in advance by monitoring online that the space is available or not and seeing working on an application for booking a
parking spot with the online payment method.
The paper is structured as follows in section 2 the covers Objectives of the study. In section 3 covers a literature review. In section 4
covers a Methodology. the Section 5 Covers Experiment. In section 6 Result and finally section 7 covers Conclusion and Future
Scope.
IV. METHODOLOGY
The methodology is a model to defined techniques or methods to develop, plan, and design a model or a project. This session
explains about working of systems and applications with hardware and software that will be used for developing a system. The
results should be analyzed to achieving the objective of this model or a project.
A. Overview
The proposed system is about to detect a space for parking using mobile applications with hardware and software specifications.
Users or drivers can easily find a parking spot with an application that monitors the space is free or not before parking and can do
the advanced booking of parking space for a specific time. Ultrasonic and infrared sensors help to detect a vehicle parking space that
the parking is available or not and sensor sense the availability or not and gives the data to the controller and stores the data the in
the cloud and with the help of Wi-fi module user can access the data from cloud to know that and monitor the space in own mobile
application and easily can track the parking area without more time consuming It easily can reach parking spot with the help of
Google maps and can do online payment depends on the parking time they parked a vehicle.
(1) User/driver login into the mobile application and check nearest vacant place for
park
(2) User/driver selects a parking slot in advance and parked the vehicle.
(3) User/driver uses a mobile application to find a parking place and parking fees.
1) Process (1) user/driver register and login into the mobile application and check the nearest vacant place for parking. A mobile
application that helps to monitor the parking area is a parking space available or not. If it is available or not. If shows green if
not it shows red.
2) Process (2) User/driver select parking slot in advance and parked the vehicle. In real-time parking space is immediately update
on a mobile application. When drivers park in the selected parking space then the notification comes in application to fill the
license plate number of the driver. User-provided services like tracking, the position of vehicle timer, and online payment
services application.
3) Process (3) User drives use a mobile application to find a parking space and show park a fee. After a vehicle is parked in a slot
then the timer gets started before exit the parking the application automatically generates a parking fee based on timing and the
user can easily pay the fee online.
4) Process (4) driver exit a parking space. After a driver paid a parking fee online then they exit a parking space, and the
application is updated.
B. Data Analysis
In this paper data analysis is performed by collecting data through google forms. A data is a formal quantitative data that is collected
related to the hypothesis we set and analysis of data for calculation chi-square is applied for proving the hypothesis.
5) IR Sensor: It is an electronic device that emits to sense any object around to the surroundings. It detects the motion and
measures the heat of the object.
6) GSM Module: It is a circuit that is used to set up communication between microcontrollers and mobile phones. It is used to send
voice messages, SMS through smartphones. It allows high data transmission.
7) Reader Module: This device scan and collect information from RFID. It is used to track objects.
8) Android Module: It helps to connect users from the parking area.
9) Mobile Application: User or driver downloads an application in the mobile phones through which they track a parking area to
check the availability is there or not and booked a space in advance before parking.
10) Online Payment Method: During exiting the parking user can pay the parking fee online. It depends on the duration they parked,
and the payment is done in all modes such as net banking, PayPal, etc.
V. EXPERIMENT
We collected 90 samples out of 100 population with male and female responses. A data is collected using the google form platform
we prepared a questionnaire for response and analysis. It is a quantitative-based analysis collected nominal based data. Of 90
samples 69 are males and 21 are females are responded. In each graph red represent males and green represent females. In the above
graph figure 1.1, we see that 69 males and 22 females respond that finding parking space is time consumption where 68 males and
23 females responded that there is a problem for finding space in urban cities. According to the graph, we see the majority say
finding a parking space is more difficult in an urban city and it is more consuming for vehicle driver/user.
We performed a chi-square test based on a hypothesis in which created an observed table than expected a table and calculated chi-
square and find a degree of freedom to get a tabular chi-square value. If chi-square calculated is greater than chi-square tabular it
except alternative hypothesis and rejects the null hypothesis.

VI. RESULTS
We performed data analysis by collecting relevant data from the given questionnaire and performed a chi-square test related to the
hypothesis we set. So according to the experiment H1 hypothesis is accepted that in a parking space is difficult and more time-
consuming in an adding to the majority of respondents is proven that finding parking space in urban areas is a time-consuming task
for people.
