Abstract |
Intersections play an important role in traffic management. Traditional intersection management systems do not offer an optimal solution. Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networks (VANETs) offer communications among vehicles which allow the implementation of intelligent intersection management. Numerous techniques have been proposed in the literature to regulate traffic at intersection intelligently. However, these research works do not provide a general solution based on user-defined priorities and vehicles density. In this paper, we propose a novel priority based algorithm to manage intersection traffic using vehicle-to-vehicle communication and coalitions are formed among vehicles based on their priority. Our algorithm, let the vehicles with higher priority pass the intersection before the lower priority vehicles. Simulation results showed that our algorithm improved throughput by 21.6% and travel time by 40.24% when compared with the traditional-based algorithm. |
