【 摘 要 】

Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANETs) have recently attracted a lot of attention due to the possibility of improving safety and performance of transportation on public roads.In addition to other benefits VANETs can reduce or eliminate congestion by redirectingvehicles around traffic jams.In this thesis, we quantify the reduction in transit time and increase in averagespeeds in vehicular systems by employing VANET technology. We use detailed simulationsto evaluate the effects of number of vehicles on the road, penetration ratio, number ofincidents and transmission range parameters on the vehicular transit time and averagespeed. Results show a significant increase in average speeds and a reduction in transit timein congestion scenarios caused either by traffic incidents or traffic overload.
