Um sistema cooperativo e descentralizado para o monitoramento e disponibilização das condições de trânsito utilizando redes veiculares

Abstract

The capacity to estimate, predict and show the conditions of the roads for drivers becomes a fundamental requirement for many applications that aim to monitor such conditions, reduce traffic jams and decrease travel time effectively. Vehicular networks has had a lot of attention in the research groups, bringing the proposal to characterize the traffic of vehicles in the way more dynamical and intelligent, providing new applications for transit, and new ways of how datas can be collected, aggregated and disseminated. In this work a system is proposed to perform the monitoring and provision of traffic conditions using a vehicular network. The experiments were conducted by simulation using the Veins framework, which is an aggregation of the network simulator OMNeT++ with the traffic simulator SUMO.
