 INTRODUCTION

• Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) represent a transformative approach to managing

and enhancing transportation networks through the integration of advanced
technologies and data analytics. These systems aim to improve the efficiency, safety,
and sustainability of transportation by utilizing real-time information, communication
technologies, and automated processes.ITS offers innovative solutions that address
traffic congestion, reduce emissions.

 PROBLEM IN
TRANSPORTATION
• TRAFFIC CONGESTION

• FUEL CONSUMPTION

• ACCIDENTS

4
 Causes of Road Accidents

• Driver's fault -83.5%

• Pedestrian fault/fault of passengers -4.7%
• Mechanical defect in vehicles -3%
• Bad roads-1.1%
• Bad weather -0.9%
• Other factors-6.8%
• e.g. cattle, fallen trees, road blockages, non- functioning of
signals

 BACKGROUND SITUATION OF
PROMOTING ITS

• To Solve Social Problems caused by Road

• To activate the Economy
• To reach an Advanced Information
• Telecommunication Society
• To Co-ordinate different Transport Modes
• To reduce Driver's run

• Wireless communications
• Computational technologies
• Sensing technologies
• Video vehicle detection
• Probe & smart vehicles
• The incident detection centres
• In vehicle information & route guide
 (1)Wireless Communications:
• vRadio modem communication on UHF and VHF frequencies are
widely used for short and long range communication within ITS.
• vLonger range communications have been proposed using
infrastructure networks such as WiMAX (IEEE 802.16), Global
System for Mobile Communications (GSM), or 3G.

9
• vShort-range communications (less than 450 meters) can be accomplished using IEEE
802.11 protocols. Theoretically, the range of these protocols can be extended using
Mobile ad-hoc networks or Mesh networking.

10
 (2) Computational Technologies:

• The CTS (Computational Transportation Science) fellows will develop technologies in which
sensors, travelers computers, in-vehicle computers, and computers in the static infrastructure.
• The installation of operational systems and processors in transportation vehicles have also
allowed software applications and artificial intelligence systems to be installed. These
systems include internal control of model based processes, ubiquitous computing and other
programs designed to be integrated into a greater transportation system.

11
 (3) Floating Car Data/Floating
Cellular Data:
• Non Real-time:

• Manual surveys.
• Video recording and search
• In-vehicle data recording.

• Real-time:
• Not inductive loop (without transponder).
• Antomatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR).
• GPS trace mobile comms e.g. GSM.
• Radio Signal Triangulation.
• Roadside beacon dedicated short range tag.

12
 (4) Sensing Technologies:
• Sensing systems for Intelligent Transportation System are vehicle and
infrastructure based networked systems, e.g., Intelligent vehicle technologies.

• Pavement loops are use to sense the presence of vehicle demand at intersections
and parking lot entrances.

• Radar are also used for detecting vehicles in the roadway.

• Pressure pads are use to sense the presence of pedestrians waiting to cross a
roadway.

13
 (5) Inductive loop detection:

• one or more loops of wire are embedded under the road & connected to a control box.

• When a vehicle passes over or rests on the loop, inductance is reduced showing a vehicle is
present.

14
 (6) Video Vehicle Detection:

• Video vehicle detection (VVD) is the One of the most widely used method. Video
detection is an image processor. It consists of a microprocessor-base CPU and
software that analyzes video images. Using a mouse and interactive graphics, the
user places virtual "detectors" on the video image displayed on a monitor.

• Statistics can be progressively transmitted to a server for real-time analysis

 Intelligent transportation
applications
Electronic toll collection:

• Electronic toll collection (ETC) makes it possible for

vehicles to drive through toll gates at traffic speed,
reducing congestion at toll plazas and automating toll
collection.

17
 Emergency vehicle notification
systems:
• The in-vehicle ecall is an emergency call generated either manually by the
vehicle occupants or automatically via activation of in- vehicle sensors after an
accident.

18
 Automatic road enforcement

• A traffic enforcement camera system, consisting of a camera and a vehicle-monitoring

device, is used to detect and identify vehicles disobeying a speed limit or some other road
legal requirement.

19
Collision Avoidance System

20
 Benefits of ITS:
• Time Savings

• Better emergency response times and services

• Reduced Crashes

• Cost Avoidance

• Increased Customer Satisfaction

• Energy and Environmental Benefits

• Decreasing of probability of congestion occurrence.

21
 Advantage
• Improved safety

• Better traffic flow

• Lower travel cost

• Better environmental quality

• Increased business activity

• Greater user acceptance

• Better travel information

• Better planning information

22
 Challenges

• Difficult to use in mixed traffic

• Preliminary difficulties in understanding

• ITS equipments costly

• The control system software could be hacked by hackers

23
 CONCLUSION

• Road safety has become a pressing issue in India.

• The number of deaths has reached upto 80,0000

• The rapid increase in eSafety is in growing demand to the day.

• The making of new vehicles should be well equipped with necessary technologies.

• To change the road user culture. This includes stronger levels of traffic regulation and enforcement.
