Abstract

Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) is a vision which offers safe, secure and smart travel experience to drivers. This futuristic plan aims to enable vehicles, roadside transportation infrastructures, pedestrian smart-phones and other devices to communicate with one another to provide safety and convenience services. Vehicle to Vehicle (V2V) and Vehicle to Infrastructure (V2I) communication in ITS offers ability to exchange speed, heading angle, position and other environment related conditions amongst vehicles and with surrounding smart infrastructures. V2V will enable vehicles to exchange information about speed, location, direction, or brake status with other surrounding vehicles where receiving vehicles will aggregate these messages and make decisions. These on-board applications will warn drivers about accidents, over-speed, slow traffic ahead, aggressive driver, blind spot or a road hazard. V2I will enable road side units (RSUs) or traffic infrastructures to transmit information about bridge permissible height, merging traffic, work zone warning or road hazard detection to complement V2V applications.
