ABSTRACT, are focused on improving the road driving. This type of approaches will warn the driver and the co-pilot of any event occurred in the road ahead, such as traffic jam, accidents, bad weather, etc. This way, the number of traffic accidents may decrease and many lives might be saved. Besides, a better selection of non-congested roads will help to reduce pollution. In addition, other attractive services, such as downloading of multimedia services or Internet browsing, would be easily available through infrastructure along the roadside. Transportation in motorways will be easier, safer and more comfortable for passengers. In this paper a HSVN platform is presented, also a communications protocol between VANETs and WSNs is described and evaluated using the NCTUns [3] simulator. Categories and Subject Descriptors General TermsDesign, Performance Keywords WSN (Wireless Sensor Network), VANET (Vehicular ad hoc Network), HSVN (Hybrid Sensor and Vehicular Network).
