B. Magnetic Sensors
The magnetic sensor in the Mote is the Honeywell
HMC1002 magnetometer, which is a magnetoresistive
sensor. The anisotropic magnetoresistive (AMR) sensor has

Figure 12 shows the ATA magnetic vehicle detection.
The left plot shows the magnetic signal waveform with 4
vehicles passing over the Mote with a magetometer. The
sampling frequency for magentic signals is 64 Hz. The
same ATA was implemented as for acoustic vehicle
detection via Motes. All the four vehicles are correctly
detected.

V. CONCLUSION
This paper discusses an innovative real-time vehicle
detection algorithm: the Adaptive Threshold. Real-time
tests and offline simulations have demonstrated that the
algorithm is effective for processing both acoustic and
magnetic signals for vehicle detection. The effect of tuning
several key parameters of the ATA were also presented.
The signal processing of the magnetic signals using the
threshold algorithm results in 0-1 pulses. From the widths
of the pulses, we can estimate the vehicle speed if the length
of the vehicle is known. Our future research work will
involves speed estimation using multiple Motes.
