IoT Concept in Cooperative Traffic Management

Abstract

In order to improve the quality of traffic in urban areas it is necessary to establish communication between infrastructure and vehicles. Basic concept is defined through cooperative approach where traffic information is exchanged between vehicles and vehicles and vehicles and infrastructure. Because of large amount of data, new communication technologies are crucial for data saving and analysis. Internet of Things is a plausible concept for data storage, but the intention of this research is to define possible wireless communication technologies that can be used in urban traffic management. Many ITS solutions demand different performance of wireless technologies (speed of connection establishment, bandwidth, etc.), so certain scenarios will be described in this research.
