Abstract Intelligent transportation systems (ITSs) are becoming increasingly popular as they support efficient coordinated transport. ITSs aim to improve the safety, efficiency and reliability of road transportation through integrated approaches to the exchange of relevant information. Mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) and vehicle ad-hoc networks (VANETs) are integral components of ITS. The VANET is composed of interconnected vehicles with sensitivity capabilities to exchange traffic, positioning, weather and emergency information. One of the main challenges in VANET is the reliable and timely dissemination of information between vehicular nodes to improve decision-making processes. This paper illustrates challenges in VANET and reviews possible solutions to… More >

Abstract Demand for precise vehicle positioning (VP) increases as autonomous vehicles have recently been drawing attention. This paper proposes a scheme for positioning vehicles on the move based on optical camera communication (OCC) technology in the vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) environment. Light-emitting diode (LED) streetlights and vehicle cameras are used as transmitters and receivers respectively. Regions of streetlights are detected and traced by examining images that are obtained from cameras of vehicles. Then, a scheme for analyzing visible light data extracted from the images is proposed. The proposed vehicle positioning scheme uses information on angles between vectors that are formed under the collinearity… More >
