摘要

Abstract

We analyze the effect of using a vehicular ad-hoc network (VANET) on accident avoidance. As shown in our analysis

a higher frequency of safety packets can prevent accidents

even for high speed vehicles and dense roads. To overcome connec tivity problems in blind crossing situations

a genetic algorithm (GA) based method is presented for VANET infrastructure plan ning. The proposed approach tries to remove coverage sight holes in low sight distance cases in a traveling path in the road. In such places

drivers might not have enough sight for proper action and also environmental obstacles prevent direct communication between vehicles. Furthermore

curved roads affect mobility. Simulation results show that the density of vehicles is increased right before a curve and is decreased after that. Therefore

in this kind of road

a high frequency of packet generation may not act well in accident avoidance. The method proposed in this paper tries to cover such places considering the lowest safety distances according to traffic theory. For this

the road must be covered directly by infrastructure. Therefore

the problem is to find the best number and also positions of road side units. Using GA

the algorithm minimizes the summation of total uncovered and overlapped points in the roads which are covered by more than one antenna. Simulation on a real road map confirmed the capabilities of the proposed approach.
