Vehicular Ad-hoc Network, VANET, offers new opportunities for better road traffic management. Using vehicle to vehicle (V2V) and vehicle to infrastructure (V2I) communications, several research works were published on road traffic improvement in general and at road intersection in particular. One of the challenging problems is to minimize vehicles' waiting time at the intersection as well optimize...
Rapid urbanization has put increasingly pressure on traffic management in urban areas. Conventional traffic signal with fixed or pre-defined variable cycles setting can slightly alleviate the increasing traffic problem, but cannot deal with continuously growing vehicular traffic in rapidly growing urban areas. VANET technology offers a promising solution for better vehicular traffic management in...
In this paper, we apply VANET capabilities to develop a new adaptive traffic light control algorithm that takes into consideration in real time traffic density and vehicle relative position to the intersection. Our preliminary results show a substantial improvement of traffic throughput and average waiting time in comparison with fixed optimal cycle's time and with existing adaptive solutions.
