Exploiting Vehicular Communication Systems for Improving Traffic Safety in the UAE

摘要

Intelligent Transportation system (ITS) aims to improve traffic safety, transportation efficiency and driving experience. To ensure the importance of safety mechanism in ITS, this study has established a simulated vehicular environment to analyze two cases. Vehicular data collected from two different regions of Abu Dhabi are analyzed with simulators which executes with (or) without safety mechanism. Map data related to the two different regions are collected using OpenStreetMap. Simulation environment is established using SUMO. Message forwarding and execution of the simulation is done using OMNet++.
