Abstract |
In this work we present a practical solution for traffic congestion problems using simple IoT technologies that configure traffic light interconnection. To date, many proposed solutions have required either a hardware manipulation of private cars or installation of complex software systems in a huge number of traffic lights. In our smart city traffic simulation, we show that optimizing traffic lights alone - without any modifications to the vehicles - can improve the traffic congestion rate and severity by more than 20%. Our proposed scheme is also easy to implement as opposed to current approaches that present enormous challenges to today's cities both in terms of budget requirements and operational scale, and heavy bandwidth demands from the vehicular cloud. |
