Validation of real-time traffic information based on personal communication service network

Abstract

This research demonstrates an efficient traffic information provision system for mitigating traffic congestion in the street networks based on multi-type traffic detectors which include inductive loop, image recognition, beacon, and personal communication service (PCS). A methodology is demonstrated in this study, which combines and processes data including vehicle location and speed from the wireless communication network, i.e. PCS in order to validate real time traffic information through PCS and internet. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2005.
