Globalized World

In today’s globalized world, highway is the means to join countries, cities, towns etc. In recent years all the old technologies changed into new technology. All the things are changed but highways are not changed. The "Smart Highway with glowing lines" is the concept to make highway roads smarter, safer, and more energy efficient for generating energy using solar energy. In the part of Smart Highways with Glowing Lines the road glow in the dark lines is installed, called Glowing Lines. These lines collect energy during the day and give light in the evening. Here the landscape becomes an experience of light and information. As a result, this increases visibility and safety. Smart highways and smart roads are terms for a number of different proposals to incorporate technologies into roads like Smart Road with Glowing Lines, for lighting road at Night Time. This innovative concept creates an entirely new mobility experience for drivers, cyclists and pedestrians. Ideas from this testing ground are increasingly becoming part of our everyday landscape. Intelligent transportation systems usually refer to the use of information and communication technologies in the fields of road transport, including infrastructure, vehicles, users, traffic management and mobility management as well as interfaces with other modes of transport. This clearly shows that mobility can be smarter, more interactive and more sustainable without having to widen roads or lay more rail connections. It is simply a case of putting demand first.

During the last decades Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) have been attracting the interest of an increasing number of researchers, engineers and entrepreneurs, as well as citizens and civil authorities, since they can contribute towards improving road transport safety and efficiency and ameliorate environmental conditions and life quality. Emerging technologies yield miniaturized sensing, processing and communication devices that enable a high degree of integration and open the way for a large number of smart applications that can exploit automated fusion of information and enable efficient decisions by collecting, processing and communicating a large number of data in real-time. The cornerstone of these applications is the realization of an opportunistic wireless communication system between vehicles as well as between vehicles and infrastructure over which the right piece of information reaches the right location on time. In this paper, the authors present the design and implementation of representative safety and traffic management applications. Specifically the authors discuss the hardware and software requirements presenting a use case based on the NEC Linkbird-MX platform, which supports IEEE 802.11p based communications. The authors show how the functionality of IEEE 802.11p can be exploited to build efficient road safety and traffic management applications over mobile opportunistic systems and discuss practical implementation issues.

Information And Communication

The Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) are the subject of a world economic competition. They are the application of new information and communication technologies in the transport sector, to make the infrastructures more efficient, more reliable and more ecological. License Plates Recognition (LPR) is the key module of these systems, in which the License Plate Localization (LPL) is the most important stage, because it determines the speed and robustness of this module. Thus, during this step the algorithm must process the image and overcome several constraints as climatic and lighting conditions, sensors and angles variety, LPs’ no-standardization, and the real time processing. This paper presents a classification and comparison of License Plates Localization (LPL) algorithms and describes the advantages, disadvantages and improvements made by each of them.

<p class="Text"><strong>—<em> </em></strong>In Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networks (VANETs), wireless-equipped vehicles form a network spontaneously while traveling along the road. The direct wireless transmission from vehicle to vehicle makes it possible for them to communicate even where there is no telecommunication infrastructure; this emerging new technology provide ubiquitous connectivity to vehicular nodes while on the move, The main idea is to provide ubiquitous connectivity to vehicular nodes while on the move, and to create efficient vehicle-to-vehicle communications that enable the Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). This is achieved by allowing nodes within certain ranges to connect with each other in order to exchange information. Since accident happens in split seconds, to avoid communication inefficiency, there is need for this information to get to the intended vehicle on time. To solve this problem, this work models each vehicle in a chain of others and how it responds to the traffic around it using Microscopic (also known as car-following) method for modeling traffic flow; driver- to-driver and driver-to-road interactions within a traffic stream and the interaction between a driver and another driver on road were considered. The essence of this modeling is to determine the minimum response time required for a vehicle in VANET to respond and communicate situations on the road. A simulated scenario was carried out for two vehicles, a leading vehicle and following vehicle. The result shows that with an average of 32 meters apart with average difference in velocity of   1.23m/s, a minimum of 0.9secs is required for efficient situation response communication to ensue between them.</p>

The development of intelligent transport systems (ITS) is one of the most important areas in improving transport infrastructure in the Russian Federation, as this allows: to optimize the distri-bution of vehicle flows along the road network; improve road capacity through better traffic man-agement; increase the level of road safety and reduce the likelihood of accidents; improve envi-ronmental safety; Organize effective traffic management options for road accidents, as well as or-ganize activities that facilitate traffic management; Rationalize options for granting priority to different modes of transport. The creation of ITS is based on a system approach, designing ITS based on the integration of various systems. ITS design principles include modernization and reengineering of existing transport systems. However, the development of these systems has a num-ber of common problems for most regions, without which it is impossible to create an effectively functioning ITS.

In medium-sized cities in developing countries, transit services without dedicated lanes have issues related to route compliance, schedules, speed control, and safety. An efficient way for dealing with this issue is the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), to implement a Fleet Management and Control Systems (FMCS). Such implementation can be performed using Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITSs), which allow integration of services and adequate standardization. This article features: (a) a literature review, related to FMCS based on ITS and enabling technologies, (b) design of the ITS architecture of an FMCS, and (c) some advances in the development of the proposed FMCS in a Colombian city (Popayán). The results of the literature review allowed identifying the most important requirements of FMCS in order to design the ITS architecture and build a prototype featuring the suggested technologies. Finally, some experiments were performed to evaluate the operation of the developed prototype. The results showed evidence of adequate operation in sending and receiving messages from and to four prototypes developed for the vehicles, also complying with the established requirements of location, tracking, exchanged data, and security. This allows continuing the development of the proposed FMCS, with some adjustments.

Wireless Communication Protocol

In the last few years Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) based on wireless vehicular networks have been attracting interest, since they can contribute towards improving road transport safety and efficiency and ameliorate environmental conditions and life quality. In order to widely spread these technologies, standardization at each layer of the networking protocol stacks has to be done. Therefore, a suite of protocols along with the architecture for the wireless environments with vehicles has been developed and standardized. Both in the US as well as in Europe the selected wireless communication protocol has been the 802.11p protocol developed by the IEEE. In this chapter, we discuss the potential impact of ITS towards achieving the above targets of improving road safety and traffic control. We review the overall architecture and the protocol functionality and present in detail a number of applications that have been developed demonstrating selected use-cases on an 802.11p compliant system prototype. Specifically, we discuss the implementation of selected applications on the NEC's Linkbird-MX platform, which supports IEEE 802.11p based communications, showing how its functionality can be exploited to build efficient road safety and traffic management applications, and evaluate the performance of the system using an experimental testbed.
