We describe an algorithm and experimental work for vehicle detection using sensor node data. Both acoustic and magnetic signals are processed for vehicle detection. We propose a real-time vehicle detection algorithm called the adaptive threshold algorithm (ATA). The algorithm first computes the time-domain energy distribution curve and then slices the energy curve using a threshold updated adaptively by some decision states. Finally, the hard decision results from threshold slicing are passed to a finite-state machine, which makes the final vehicle detection decision. Real-time tests and offline simulations both demonstrate that the proposed algorithm is effective.
