Synergies of Advanced Technologies and Role of VANET in Logistics and Transportation

Abstract

In Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS), Vehicular Ad-hoc Network (VANET) is one of key wireless technologies, which helps in managing road safety, traffic efficiency, fleet, logistics and transportation. The objective of this paper is to give an overview of the implication of different technologies and placement of VANET in transportation and specifically in logistics. We provide researchers with an overview of considered technologies in logistics scenarios and the current projects regarding VANET for safety and non-safety applications. We additionally discuss current and potential domains in logistics in which new applications can improve efficiency by use of new and existing technologies.
