Traffic Congestion Detection in Vehicular Adhoc Networks using GPS

Abstract

The invention relates to the sphere of traffic congestion detection, and relates to a traffic congestion detecting system and technique. Vehicles will directly communicate with each other and with infrastructure; a wholly new paradigm for vehicle safety applications will be created. New challenges are created by high vehicle speeds and extremely dynamic operational environments. New necessities, necessitated by new safety-of-life applications, embody new expectations for high packet delivery rates and low packet latency. Vehicles generate and analyze giant amounts of information, though typically this information is self-contained inside one vehicle. With a VANET, the prospect of awareness for the vehicle or driver drastically will increase. Here we have a tendency to outline such variety of communication and information flow between vehicles and infrastructure and therefore the results that are created is shown. The survey report of previous done work is additionally mentioned within the literature survey. The simulation tool employed in this analysis and implementation is NCTUns that is very integrated GUI surroundings tool and is predicated on UNIX system platform. During this work we have a tendency to uses GPS device for communication between vehicles and to find their position precisely within the rush or in congestion.
