TOWARDS IOT IN TRAFFIC CONTROL: REVIEW OF EXISTING METHODS OF ROAD TRAFFIC REGULATION
Keywords:
IoT, traffic management, intelligent transportation system, ITS, traffic, traffic jam
Abstract
Internet of Things (IoT) is an important upcoming technology for making infrastructures of our society smart and adaptable to the users’ needs. One such infrastructure is transportation. The connec-tion between roads and cities is obvious. The main features of the road infrastructure are a long service life and high cost, which means that this problem can be solved at the moment, keeping these objects in their original condition. Economic calculations show that effectively managing traffic on existing roads is more profitable than building new ones, although this is not very cheap from an economic point of view. Studying the experience of many major megacities of the world, it can be concluded that the con-struction of new and reconstruction of existing roads due to the constant increase in the number of vehi-cles does not completely reduce the difference between the capacity of roads and the level of demand required for automobile transport. High costs for the construction of new road infrastructure, constant traffic congestion and environmental factors are pushing companies and the government to look for solutions for more efficient traffic management. We are looking for opportunities to minimize the nega-tive effects of congestion and optimize the use of limited public funds. This article discusses existing methods and algorithms for automated management of traffic flows with a purpose of identifying hot spots and methods for applying IoT in this sector. Advantages and disadvantages of the existing meth-ods are discussed, including evaluation of their effectiveness.
