Abstract

The city taxi system is characterized as inconvenience information interaction with passengers and regional imbalance. With the development of wireless network technology, VANET can realize the real-time information interaction between taxi and passengers. Thus to conduct reasonable taxi scheduling and improve the efficiency of the taxi system. In order to validate the effectiveness of intelligent call system of city taxi which adopts the wireless network technology, this study provides a taxi control simulation system based on the wireless network, thus to analyze the behavior of vehicles and passengers. The results show that the real-time taxi call system and intelligent scheduling by using the wireless network technology can effectively reduce the not-taken rate and the average waiting time of passengers.

Highlights

To upgrade the city taxi service is essential in improving public transportation and citizens' quality of life in urban areas, affects the development of a city
This study mainly studies the taxi call simulation system based on the wireless network
Both in the small town and large city can use this system, which is complementary to the existing car-calling method

Summary

Introduction

To upgrade the city taxi service is essential in improving public transportation and citizens' quality of life in urban areas, affects the development of a city. In China, taxi is responsible for 20% of city passengers. Along with the development of urbanization and urban public transport system, the passenger capacity for taxi will increase further. The growing users' needs impose heavy pressure on public taxi system. A large amount of urban residents choose taxi as a travel tool. In Hangzhou, for example, as a famous international tourism and Leisure City as well as an economic center, the mobile population chooses to taxi as vehicle
