Ras Al Khaimah, UAE, July 16, 2024: Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), powered by 5G and Internet of Things (IoT), are poised to take smart traffic management to the next level, creating a safer, smoother and more sustainable traffic movement in cities across the globe, according to a paper published by a group of researchers from three Middle East universities, including the American University of Ras Al Khaimah (AURAK).
The thrust of the study is the Vehicular Adhoc Networks (VANETs) – which facilitate real-time vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure communication– using cutting-edge technology, data analytics, and communication systems, to help improve transportation networks’ effectiveness, security, and environmental friendliness, complemented by Intelligent Traffic Lights, Virtual Traffic Lights, and Mobility Prediction.
The paper quotes studies which demonstrate that ITS-based effective traffic management systems have the potential to drastically cut travel times by as much as 25%; reduce energy consumption and emissions of greenhouse gases by around 15–20 %; and reduce the number of accidents in metropolitan areas by as much as 20 %.
