Intelligent vehicle highway systems: A mandate now—and for the future

Intelligent Vehicle Highway Systems (Ivhs) Issues and Recommendations

Intelligent Vehicle Highway Systems (IVHS) is the integration of various pieces of information and computer technologies to the transportation elements in order to obtain a more productive transportation system. The five major components of IVHS are the Advanced Traffic Management Systems (ATMS), Advanced Vehicle Control Systems (AVCS), and Advanced Public Transportation systems (APTS). This pa...

Visual Tracking for Intelligent Vehicle-Highway Systems

The complexity and congestion of current transportation systems often produce traffic situations that jeopardize the safety of the people involved. These situations vary from maintaining a safe distance behind a leading vehicle to safely allowing a pedestrian to cross a busy street. Environmental sensing plays a critical role in virtually all of these situations. Of the sensors available, visio...

Prediction and Simulation Models for Intelligent Vehicle Highway Systems

Congestion on highways is becoming a bigger problem every day. With the increasing need for more highway capacity, which cannot always be met by building new highways, opportunities must be found in state-of-the-art technologies for more efficient traffic management. In this thesis traffic control is studied where the traffic consists solely out of intelligent vehicles arranged in platoons, i.e...

Traffic control and intelligent vehicle highway systems: A survey

Traffic congestion in highway networks is one of the main issues to be addressed by today’s traffic management schemes. Automation combined with the increasing market penetration of on-line communication, navigation, and advanced driver assistance systems will ultimately result in intelligent vehicle highway systems (IVHS) that distribute intelligence between roadside infrastructure and vehicle...
