Transportation Sector

Due to rapid urbanization and emergence of mega-cities, urban transportation infrastructures are stressed leading to traffic congestion, high fuel consumption as well as increasing number of accidents and fatalities. Present transport sector globally is largely two-dimensional and may not be able to cope up with the growth of cities which is three-dimensional in nature, the environmental pollution, the traffic congestion, the sustainability, etc. This has led to efforts towards three dimensional transportation systems such as passenger drones, flying cars, cars moving through multi-layer underground tunnels etc. The overall concept of three-dimensional transportation demonstrates that the transportation sector has made a significant progress towards comprehending the necessity of a proper and sustainable transit system, which otherwise has implications on environment, health, infrastructure and sustainability as well. However, some of these futuristic options may be associated with safety and security concerns – both for them, as well as caused by them. Some of these options envisage utilization of artificial intelligence and even augmented reality. Technological challenges, the potential for cost-effectiveness, and their socio-economic impacts are also important considerations. Through deep and critical study, in this journal, the author will try to analyze the concept of hyper loop and its practicality; about its various components, its working, global acceptance of hyper loop and its possible advantages and unaddressed issues. Some critics are of the opinion that hyper loop is more of a hypothetical idea which is totally impractical and impossible, but optimistic experts say that it just needs some hard work, a decade’s time and huge amount of money which would then result in revolution of the whole transportation system in a unique, unpredictable and sustainable way. A cross-impact analysis to evaluate possible future scenario for this will also be taken up.

To unlock the potential of Internet of Vehicles (IoV) in Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), it was vital to make efficiency measurements. In this study, Distance Formula was built to calculate distances by GPS data based on mathematical equations, and Motorcade-Sharing (MS) Model was proposed to improve the efficiency of collaborative vehicles. The experimental data of 2191 GPS-equipped taxis in Sanya of China was adopted to make comparisons between original results and modelled results. Measurement results showed that MS Model had 10.54% more leisure taxis, reduced 5 overdriving taxis, and saved 33.73% running distance in total compared to the original. This indicated that the application of MS Model could not only alleviate urban traffic congestion but also optimize urban taxi markets, and it has a bright future in the field of taxi and other collaborative vehicles. Future directions could be improving MS Model and expanding data.

The Relationship

With the spread of connected vehicles (CVs), a growth of novel information services exploiting data transmitted by CVs is expected. Wireless communication systems, in particular in vehicular applications, operate with a varying level of transmission reliability, which may affect the quality of V2X-data-driven intelligent transport systems (ITS). Therefore, the performance of ITS should be evaluated in a variety of conditions and the configuration of parameters should be fine-tuned in a safe testbed, using computer simulations. A simple framework is presented, which couples VISSIM traffic simulation and OMNeT++ communication networks simulation in real time, enabling an assessment of the relationship between a communication reliability and transport service quality. A functionality of the framework is demonstrated by applying it to a scheme controlling signalized intersections while estimating traffic flows from the V2I data.
