The traffic lights problem is already commonly found in large cities. The traffic lights are supposed to control the flow of the road, but sometimes causes a congestion. This happens because the distribution of the time are all the same for all lines, without seeing the condition of the density of each lane. There’s one effort that can be done to overcome this problem, is to create a traffic light control system. With this system, the congestion that occurs around the traffic lights can be reduced. This system is using fuzzy logic. Fuzzy logic is one of computer science that studies about the value of truth that worth a lot. For example, a air conditioning system control subway Sendai in Japan. As for making a traffic light control system, the author using Fuzzy Inference System (FIS) that already exist in the application of MATLAB R2013a with Mamdani method. Index Terms —fuzzy logic, traffic lights, MATLAB.

Configuration technology is a new technology for monitoring in the current society; it is the result of the development of computer control technology. To traffic light control system, it is to combine the use of configuration technology and procedures related to PLC, and through software simulation and traffic lights light changes, traffic light control system could achieve the monitoring problem, and if the system is in good condition, its application can save a lot of labor powers and materials.

Nowadays, automatic traffic light control is becoming an important requirement for travelers and number of road users especially for emergency service providers such as ambulance drivers, fire fighters etc... Various alternatives have been proposed, but it has certain limitations.One such example is using an RF transmitter mounted on the ambulance which will communicate with the RF receiver mounted on the signal post in the traffic control system. A special algorithm is provided to control the traffic signals automatically by pressing the key provided in the keybord on the ambulance by the driver.But in this case, there is big trouble for car accidents or road accidents, because of automatic adjustment and a large number of vehicles, and there is a problem of delay in first aid service, with these overcrowded roads. This paper describes a solution that is "Intelligent Ambulance with Automatic Traffic Control” which includes the accident detecting, alerting and tracking mechanism with an automatic traffic light controlling system to overcome this delay of first aid service. An ambulance can thereby easily finde a freeway to reach the victim in a minimal time and thereby providing first aid as soon as possible. This is possible by using an RF transmitter on the ambulance which will communicate with the RF receiver mounted on the signal post in the traffic control system. To control the traffic signals automatically, and to move towards the location in minimal time, a specific algorithm is proposed in this paper. Thus, the traffic light gets controlled by the intelligent ambulance itself, in such a way that it could provide free path to the ambulance[1].
