Inter-vehicular communication is an important research area that is rapidly growing due to considerable advances in mobile and wireless communication technologies, as well as the growth of microprocessing capabilities inside today's cars, and other moving vehicles. A good amount of research has been done to exploit the different services that can be provided to enhance the safety and comfort of the...
Road accidents have become a common occurrence today. Every year thousands of people die in road accidents, some people are lucky to get away with few scratches and some people tend to suffer serious injuries due to road intersection collision. Vehicular Ad hoc Network (VANET) is a special kind of network that focuses on the safety of users and to reduce the accidents. VANET provides many potential...
Among civilian communication systems, vehicular networks emerge as one of the most is convincing and yet most challenging instantiations of the mobile ad hoc networking technology. Towards the deployment of vehicular communication systems, security and privacy are critical factors and significant challenges to be met. This Vehicular communication (VC) system has the potential to improve road safety...
Automotive networking on US highways is moving into high gear. Smart cars, connected vehicles, intelligent transportation systems (ITS), vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANET), and vehicle telematics represent parallel and overlapping technologies and services that will define the future of the American roadway systems. The integration of computing technology and expanding communication services is driving...
Due to their nature, vehicular ad hoc network (VANET) is vulnerable to denial of service (DoS) attacks, such as jamming attack. The objective of a jammer is to interfere with legitimate wireless communications, and to degrade the overall QoS of the network. In this paper, we propose a model to detect a particular class of jamming attack, in which the jammer transmits only when valid radio activity...
Robust and reliable service architectures must be designed to guarantee the success of future vehicular networks. This paper addresses service provisioning elements such as communication service models, service discovery and service access intended for vehicular environments. We propose a secure service access architecture based on the concept of district domains which are entities responsible for...
The adoption of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has made possible to experience levels of visibility, control and connectivity across the entire supply chain never experienced before. However, in road transport logistics, which represents the largest market share of freight transport modes, wireless ICT applications like cellular networks, Wi-Fi, UMTS, 4G and WiMax have not entirely...
This paper has shown that U2VAS fulfills all requirements of a truly modular and flexible communication stack for VANETs. Beyond the framework, the current implementation already contains several forms of communication, positioning and security mechanisms. We invite interested developers to join our effort and contribute to the further development of U2VAS.
An emerging trend among automobile manufacturers is to introduce wireless technology in the vehicles. By allowing wireless communication, real-time information exchange between vehicles as well as between infrastructure and vehicles becomes a reality. This communication allows for road condition reporting, decision making, and remote diagnostics and firmware updates over-the-air, creating a complex...
This paper describes how we can use existing mobile technology to track the vehicle. Here the embedded system along with the mobile is used to prevent the vehicle from being stolen and also if the vehicle is stolen then its location can be tracked. Mobile technology is the fastest growing communication mode. In todaypsilas mobile technology we all are acquainted with short message service (SMS). In...
Traffic congestion on major roadways costs our nation billions of dollars in lost earnings, wasted fuel consumption, injury and loss of human life. Providing motorists with real time roadway conditions is essential to mitigating traffic congestion. We propose a novel real-time messaging system that can be used to communicate imminent traffic conditions to motorists. Having such information can allow...
