Traffic Congestion Detection in Vehicular Adhoc Networks using GPS

Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2014, Vol 16, Issue 2

Abstract

In today’s world traffic congestion is the critical issue. Huge amount of time, fuel and money is wasted due to traffic jams all around the world. Drivers select the path that they consider will be the fastest; however the inability of drivers to know the road situation ahead creates severe congestion. The competency of a driver to know the traffic situation on roads will make the driver capable of saving time and fuel by taking alternative routes. In this work we have proposed a traffic congestion detection system using Vehicular adhoc networks (VANETs), which will provide efficient communication between cars and infrastructure and propagate real time information about traffic congestion to the drivers. We also uses the GPS device to detect the congested areas and defines various works
