Vehicle identification system through the interoperability of an ultra high frequency radio frequency identification system and its database

Carnapping is on the rise in the Philippines, the inefficiency of public transportation has made car ownership more of a necessity than a luxury. People prefer to drive themselves to work or destination because they feel comfortable and safer from criminals in public transportation. However, carnapping became rampant in most recent years. Vehicles are not only stolen while parked but some were forcibly taken and the owners are being harmed. Modus operandi of carnapping groups or syndicates have become more creative and bolder, mutating their nefarious activities from stealing parked cars to stealing while the owners are inside. This is the issue the research is trying to address, by building a system that will be installed on the entrance/exit of a place to detect if a vehicle passes by is a hot car. By the use of RFID technology and android device, each vehicle will have their unique RFID stickers and will be registered to the database which contains the vehicle's and owner's information. If a vehicle is carnapped, the owner can simply report and the assigned person will update the information in the database so that if that vehicle passes by the installed device it will display to the connected android device that that vehicle is carnapped. Upon testing the system, there are no error in transmissions of the vehicle's information to the android device. Having known that the system is reliable and the device can be used for monitoring hot cars.
