With the continuing growth of highway construction and vehicle use expansion all over the world, highway vehicle traffic rule violation (TRV) detection has become more and more important so as to avoid traffic accidents and injuries in intelligent transportation systems (ITS) and vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs). Since very few works have contributed to solve the TRV detection problem by movi...

The initiatives known as the Intelligent Vehicle Highway System (IVHS) of the early 1990's, of the Automated Highway System and the Intelligent Transportation System of the middle 90's, and now USDOT's Intelligent Vehicle Initiative of 1998, have all created a climate for rapid advance in ground vehicle communication and control technology. An industry such as that of aerospace lighting, with i...

Research on vehicle longitudinal control with a stop and go system is presently one of the most important topics in the field of intelligent transportation systems. The purpose of stop and go systems is to assist drivers for repeatedly accelerate and stop their vehicles in traffic jams. This system can improve the driving comfort, safety and reduce the danger of collisions and fuel consumption....

We propose a protocol suite for communication amongst mobile and roadside Intelligent Vehicle Highway Systems (IVHS). The suite seeks inspiration from ISO/OSI addressing and systems management paradigms, as well as from the Internet UDP, and is partly implemented and thus validated on a Telia Research short-range communication testbed.

8.1 Discussion The automated highway system envisioned by researchers and institutions around the world suggests a complex structure that requires extensive research efforts. Among many issues, the realization of AHS depends mainly upon the realization of intelligent vehicle control methods. No matter what design approach is taken for vehicle control, there are two important issues that will ‘h...

The use of road tra c as an accepted means of transportation has some unacceptable consequences in the resulting loss of life and damage to the environment. A proposed solution has involved the signi cant employment of digital computers in vehicles and in tra c equipment, collectively known as Intelligent Vehicle-Highway Systems (or IVHS), and these are overviewed. The paper discusses the probl...
