The railway system, one of the backbones of transportation systems in many countries is becoming more and more complex. It plays increasingly significant role in economic development of the country. Therefore, it becomes necessary to ensure that it operates effectively, efficiently and safely. To achieve that railway industries have to move from old traditional manual work, mechanization and electronic usage to intelligent transportation system (ITS). The transformation of railway transportation to railway intelligent transportation system (RITS) can be a core stratagem to keep and improve the competivity from other modes of transportation. Rapid development of emerging technologies such as communication and computing, intelligent system, technological development of railway industries along with 36,000 kilometers (kms) of laid optical fiber cable make it feasible for Indian Railway (IR) to develop and design RITS. This new generation of railway transportation with higher speed, higher performance and zero tolerance for safety may be able to meet the challenges beyond IR vision 2020. The use of RITS architecture encourages structured development and integration of ITS systems that leads to maximization of benefits by minimizing redundancies and maximizing capabilities. This paper presents a distributed framework for a multi-layered RITS architecture that can be designed for integrating generated information. It also addresses the design issues and challenges in the IR scenario.

Spatiotemporal Characteristics

The concept of big Data for intelligent transportation system has been employed for traffic management on dealing with dynamic traffic environments. Big data analytics helps to cope with large amount of storage and computing resources required to use mass traffic data effectively. However these traditional solutions brings us unprecedented opportunities to manage transportation data but it is inefficient for building the next-generation intelligent transportation systems as Traffic data exploring in velocity and volume on various characteristics. In this article, a new deep intelligent prediction network has been introduced that is hierarchical and operates with spatiotemporal characteristics and location based service on utilizing the Sensor and GPS data of the vehicle in the real time. The proposed model employs deep learning architecture to predict potential road clusters for passengers. It is injected as recommendation system to passenger in terms of mobile apps and hardware equipment employment on the vehicle incorporating location based services models to seek available parking slots, traffic free roads and shortest path for reach destination and other services in the specified path etc. The underlying the traffic data is classified into clusters with extracting set of features on it. The deep behavioural network processes the traffic data in terms of spatiotemporal characteristics to generate the traffic forecasting information, vehicle detection, autonomous driving and driving behaviours. In addition, markov model is embedded to discover the hidden features .The experimental results demonstrates that proposed approaches achieves better results against state of art approaches on the performance measures named as precision, execution time, feasibility and efficiency.

Abstract. Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) is one of the main components of a smart city. ITS have several purposes including the increase of the safety and comfort of the passengers and the reduction of the road accidents. ITS can enhance safety in three modes before, within and after the collision by preventing accident via assistive system, sensing the collision situation and calculating the time of the collision and providing the emergency response in a timely manner. The main objective of this paper is related to the smart transportation services which can be provided at the time of the collision and after the accident. After the accident, it takes several minutes to hours for the person to contact the emergency department. If an accident takes place for a vehicle in a remote area, this time increases and that may cause the loss of life. In addition, determination of the exact location of the accident is difficult by the emergency centres. That leads to the possibility of erroneous responder act in dispatching the rescue team from the nearest hospital. A new assistive intelligent system is designed in this regard that includes both software and hardware units. Hardware unit is used as an On-Board Unit (OBU), which consists of GPS, GPRS and gyroscope modules. Once OBU detects the accident, a notification system designed and connected to OBU will sent an alarm to the server. The distance to the nearest emergency center is calculated using Dijkstra algorithm. Then the server sends a request for assistance to the nearest emergency centre. The proposed system is developed and tested at local laboratory conditions. The results show that this system can reduce Ambulance Arrival Time (AAT). The preliminary results and architecture of the system have been presented. The inclination angle determined by the proposed system along with the car position identified by the installed GPS sensor assists the crash/accident warning part of the system to send a help request to the nearest road emergency centre. These results verified that the probability of having a remote and smart car crash/accident decision support system using the proposed system has been improved compared to that of the existing systems.

Microstrip Array Antenna

Abstract This article proposes a design and implementation of array Microstrip Patch antenna of configuration 2 × 2 at an operating frequency of 3.5 GHz. The proposed design takes a dimension of 80 mm × 92 mm × 1.6 mm with four radiating elements arranged in rectangular form with an optimized separation between the patches. All the radiating elements were connected through a corporate series network with an inset feed to have better impedance matching. The model gives an efficiency of 90.99% with a bandwidth of 510 MHz and with fractal configuration, the bandwidth further enhances to 1.12 GHz. The maximum gain measured was found as 11.01 dBi at θ = 10° and ɸ = 360° and 10.45 dBi with fractal configuration. The designed antenna is proposed to be used in RADAR which will be used in the intelligent transportation system for the detection of nearby (short-range) vehicles in the blind zone. This kind of Radar also finds its application in collision avoidance and activating airbags/break boosting and thus helping mankind by saving lives. The article gives an idea of the use of an array antenna in intelligent transportation system for better gain and efficient results.

Automatic Steering

Kawalan stereng automatik adalah satu komponen penting dalam pengautomatan lebuhraya, yang kini diselidik di seluruh dunia di bawah beberapa program Intelligent Transportation System (ITS). ITS berpotensi meningkatkan kapasiti lebuhraya yang sedia ada dengan penggunaan yang lebih selamat dan lebih efisien terhadap ruang yang sedia ada. Sistem ini akan terdiri daripada konsep pemanduan “hands–off” secara menyeluruh yang mana kenderaan akan dikawal secara automatik apabila ia memasuki sistem itu. Untuk mencapai objektif di atas, pengawal PID dan konsep dasar penglihatan ke atas sistem kawalan stereng automatik digunakan untuk membolehkan kenderaan menjejak rujukan di dalam pelbagai keadaan. Keputusan simulasi menunjukkan bahawa sistem kawalan yang dicadangkan mencapai objektifnya meskipun ia kurang lasak untuk mengekalkan prestasinya di dalam pelbagai keadaan. Kata kunci: Kawalan stereng automatik, dinamik kenderaan, sistem penglihatan, kawalan PID Automatic steering control is a vital component of highway automation, currently investigated worldwide in several Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) programs. The promise of Intelligent Transportation System lies in the possibility of increasing the capacity of existing highways by safer and more efficient use of available space. This system will include completely “hands–off” driving in which vehicles are fully automatically controlled once they enter the system. In order to achieve the above objective, the Proportional–Integral–Derivative (PID) controller and vision based concept to an automatic steering control system is used to cause the vehicle to track the reference under various conditions. Simulation results show that the proposed control system achieved its objective even though it is less robust in maintaining its performance under various conditions.

Oriented Approach

Recent advances in the fields of data communication and automated controls make the implementation of automated highway systems (AHSs) more possible. Currently, substantial research effort is being made on the design of intelligent transportation system (ITS) architectures in Europe, Japan, the United States, and Canada. These architectures, however, have major limitations inherit in the design methodology used. Most ITS developers use a process-oriented approach for the design of the architecture that reduces its quality attributes (stability and flexibility) to future changes. This paper presents an approach to implement object-oriented design methodology in the Canadian intelligent transportation system (C-ITS) architecture for AHS. It was also shown that the C-ITS architecture needs a backup communication system to be integrated within the C-ITS architecture. Such a backup system would aid the reliability of future transportation systems to be developed based on this architecture. The proposed C-ITS architecture promotes flexibility, stability, and communication and, as such, should be of interest to ITS developers and researchers.Key words: intelligent transportation systems, architecture, automated highways, object-oriented approach, backup communication.

With the exponential growth in technologies for the vehicular Internet of things applications and high demands for autonomous road vehicles, future transportation systems are projected to be revolutionized on a global scale. This new landscape requires a stable, flexible, and business-friendly base of connectivity, networking, and computing technology, in which Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) can play an important role. A UAV-enabled Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) can provide a cost-effective communication solution to improve the safety and efficiency of the transportation system, particularly if the data traffic is nonhomogeneous and nonstationary. Typically, wireless is the communication medium between vehicles and UAVs in an ITS setting, which is based on the IEEE802.11p MAC protocol adopted by car manufactures. However, the IEEE 802.11p MAC protocol is modified solely for omnidirectional antennas, which restricts network coverage, delay, and throughput. In comparison, the directional antenna has greater network coverage, spatial reuse, and bandwidth. In addition, a multiaccess edge computing (MEC) facility at the backhaul link will provide ultralow latency and high bandwidth services to meet the increasingly growing demand for latency-sensitive vehicle applications such as vehicular video data analytics, autonomous driving, and intelligent navigation. Therefore, this article aims to propose a novel dual-mode MAC protocol that can work in two antenna modes, i.e., directional and omnidirectional. For modeling and simulation purposes, we use the Optimized Network Engineering Tool (OPNET) and aim to seek an evaluation with respect to throughput, media access delay, and retransmission attempts. The results obtained demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
