Abstract:

There has been a lot of research effort recently dedicated to identifying appropriate communication paradigm based on car-to-car communication for evaluation of traffic conditions. This paper introduces a novel way of evaluation of one such condition - the average speed of all cars in a street in an urban area using simple broadcasting protocol. The paper presents the protocol, describes the simulation model and reports the results that have been achieved using simulation and real wireless devices communications, but in a static mode, i.e. the devices are not moving. It is anticipated that the real-tests will confirm the conclusions drawn in the paper.
