| Summary | Intelligent transportation systems (ITS) comprise a wide range of novel tools for managing transport networks as well as services for travelers. ITS tools are based on three core features: information, communications, and integration. Most of the ITS applications have some components involving the flow of data or voice messaging between vehicles, remote sites, and coordinated control centers. Thus, communications, especially wireless communications, are essential for these applications. The ultimate selection of particular communications systems will greatly affect the viability of any ITS network, so this decision must be based on a clear understanding of the performance parameters of the various technologies available. It is the purpose of this project to review and evaluate suitable communication networks for ITS applications, based on a thorough study of ITS communication needs. Various models for calculating the communication needs are first proposed, and then a computer database containing the parameters of the communication networks is established. Finally, a computer software of a decision supporting system for evaluating the communication networks suitable to ITS applications is developed based on the calculation models and the database. |
