Efficient Traffic Simulation Using Busses as Active Sensor Network

Abstract: In this paper we present a traffic simulation system using traffic data gathered from readings by GPS devices installed on board of busses, i.e., busses running on the road are used as a mobile sensor network. Traffic data are inferred from the comparison of data about normal speed and current speed in a certain position. The simulation system was developed to invent mechanisms that use such information for traffic optimization. In particular, simulations allow to manage traffic lights in real time and to cont… Show more

“…The system is described as a wireless sensor network (WSN) consisted of spatially distributed autonomous sensors. The star topology of WSN allows to achieve a high degree of scalability and a high level of controllability, as already verified in previous studies [15,16]. Inside a point of sale, several different RF boards can be installed interconnected to the wireless control gear via the 433/868/915 radio frequency communication that is actually unused by the other monitoring systems already in stores.…”

“…2) made of distributed autonomous sensors controlled from a RF trasmitter that embeds the logic part of the low level software. The topology of the network allows to achieve a high degree of scalability and a high level of controllability, as already verified in previous studies of our research group Catani et al (2010Catani et al ( , 2011. In a point of sale, several RF boxes can be installed, each connected to the control gear via radio frequency communication.…”

“…The first part of the activity recognition method is based on the water filling algorithm to identify people from a vertical depth image even when they are moving in group inside the home. Details of the tracking algorithm can be found in [21] and other aspects and applications of this approach in different scenarios are detailed in [22][23][24]. This last aspect of group behaviors will be better investigated in future tests in real scenario and the results on this side are not reported in this paper even if the methodology will be the same described here following.…”
