INTRODUCTION
Cities
have to deal with pollution , congestion and safety
problem caused by increasing traffic.
Traditional
These
transport system are not sufficient.
explore the concepts that treat highway systems
and the vehicles that use them as integrated system.
Among them is the concept of Intelligent Transportation
System
What is ITS ?
International
program aimed at using advanced technology for
improving the efficiency , safety and environmental impact of
land transportation.
It
is the Incorporation of information technologies and
advances in electronics into all parts of the transportation
network.
It
help drivers to navigate, avoid traffic holdups and avoid
collisions
Classification of ITS
1)Advanced Public Transport System(APTS)
2)Advanced Traveler Information System(ATIS)
3)Advanced Traffic Management System(ATMS)
[Link] Public Transport System(APTS)
APTS
increases the efficiency and safety of public
transportation system.
APTS
include applications such as automatic vehicle
location (AVL)
Each
vehicle report their current location
This
system report the arrival and departure status of
buses and trains
2)Advanced Traveler Information System(ATIS)
It provide drivers with real-time travel and traffic
information
Information about delays
Help for optimal route selection
There are three key steps to the provision of real-time
traffic information:
collection
processing
dissemination
3)Advanced Traffic Management System(ATMS)
Focus on traffic control devices
Adaptive traffic signal control: to avoid bad signaling
Ramp metering :to avoid vehicles entering into highway
Three ATMS elements
Collection data team
Support system
Real time traffic control system
Intelligent Transportation Technologies
1)Wireless Communications
2)Computational technologies
3)Floating car data
4)Sensing Technologies
5)Inductive loop detection
6)Video vehicle detection
1)Wireless Communications
Short range communication can be accomplished using
IEEE 802.11 protocol
Longer range communication can be accomplished using
IEEE 802.16 protocol
2)Computational technologies
Fewer, more costly microprocessor modules with
hardware memory management and Real-Time Operating
Systems are used.
Allow for more sophisticated software applications to be
implemented
3)Floating car data/floating cellular data
Virtually every car contains one or more mobile phones.
routinely transmit their location information to the
network
Floating car data technology provides great advantages
over existing methods of traffic measurement
4)Sensing Technologies
Sensing systems for ITS are vehicle and infrastructure based
networked systems
Infrastructure sensors are indestructible (such as in-road
reflectors) devices that are installed or embedded on the road, or
surrounding the road
Vehicle-sensing systems include deployment of infrastructure-tovehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure electronic beacons for
identification communications
May also employ the benefits of CCTV automatic number plate
recognition technology
5)Inductive loop detection
Measure the vehicle's magnetic field
Count the number of vehicles during a unit of time
Stopped vehicles when vehicles moving at high-speed.
6)Video vehicle detection
Traffic flow measurement and automatic incident
detection using video cameras is form of vehicle
detection
Video from black-and-white or color cameras is fed into
processors that analyze the changing characteristics of
the video image as vehicles pass.
Intelligent Transportation Applications
1)Automated Highway System(AHS)
2)Incident Management System
3)Electronic Toll Collection System(ETC)
4)Advanced Warning System(AWS)
5)Vehicle Information and Communication System(VICS)
1)Automated Highway System(AHS)
A specially
equipped highway lane in which vehicles are
automatically controlled
Smart way enables a wide range of information exchange
among all of ITS users
It require functions capable of sensing road-environment
data
functions for generating guidance from road-environment
data and road-to-vehicle communication
2)Incident Management System
They
may offer real-time information about traffic
conditions
Some applications provide fog sensors.
3)Electronic Toll Collection System(ETC)
An application of
electronic signature
detection to passenger
and commercial vehicle
traffic for the purpose
of collecting tolls
Allowing motorists to
pass through the system
at highway speeds
Transponder: radio
frequency identification
unit that transmits radio
signals
4)Advanced Warning System(AWS)
AWS
helps in preventing road crashes
A warning is given if dangerous conditions are detected
with respect to the position of a vehicle
5)Vehicle Information and Communication System(VICS)
It is a digital communication system.
It provide real time road traffic information to the drivers via
car navigation system
Information is transmitted in the direction of traffic
flow from beacons
Steps in the operation of VICS
[Link] information
[Link] and edits the collected information
[Link] information
VICS provides three kinds of displays
Map Display
Simple Graphic Display
Text Display
Advantages of ITS
Improved
safety.
Better
traffic flow.
Lower
travel cost.
Better
environmental quality.
Greater
Better
user acceptance.
travel information.
Disadvantages of ITS
Preliminary
difficulties in understanding.
ITS
equipments costly.
The
control system software could be hacked by hackers.
CONCLUSION
ITS
represent the next step in the evolution of a nation's
entire transportation system
Traffic congestions, rate of road accidents, wastage of
fuels are decreased to a large extend
Transportation has become a safer and efficient mode
Hence with much more interest and advanced research in
the field of I T S, it can be implemented in our country
and can prove to be the solution of the traffic problems
including traffic congestion, air pollution and traffic
accidents.
This system will give a high progress in the devolvement
of our country
