Title  Study of Car License Plate Location Based on Matlab
Abstract Vehicle license plate recognition system (VLPR), which is the hard core of modern Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), is one of the applications of computer video image recognition technology in vehicle license plate recognition, and is the synthesized technology of image processing, pattern recognition,  artificial intelligence, and many other fields’ technology. The system  that  requires vehicle license  to be located  from  the  complex background ,and further extracted ,identifies license plate by using those technology of  plate location, image acquisition, image preprocessing, feature extraction, license plate character recognition and so on. As Vehicle license plate recognition system (VLPR)’key and first step, the speed  and accuracy of license plate location directly affects the performance of the entire system. The study mainly aims at plate location technology, and the paper introduces the development situation of license plate location in domestic and foreign, various location algorithms, the characteristics of domestic plate and the basic knowledge of digital image processing. Then using matlab programming completes  vehicle image intensity transformation, histogram equalization image enhancement, image edge information extraction based on  sobel operator. Finally, The image is etched and expanded by morphological opening operation and closing operation of the edge in order to get a rectangular block. The correct license plate is ensured  by analyzing the ratio  feature  of rectangular blocks, horizontal and vertical projection characteristic. At last,  completing the license plate is located.
