Vehicle Ad-Hoc Network (VANET )

Abstract

VANET (Vehicular Ad-Hoc Network) is a kind of ad-hoc mobile network where is emerging standard for data communication among nearby vehicles, and between moving vehicles with fixed equipment, usually described as roadside equipment. Congestion is one of the most pressing problems for transportation research. This project tries to find a solution to improve safety situations and save time for passengers and drivers. In this project, we count the number of vehicles on roads and their speed. According to this number and speed the type of congestion is determined. The type is then transmitted using wifi technology, the near vehicles receives the signal and know the status of the road, then retransmit it to the other vehicle using adhoc communication .
