The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

Wireless technologies are likely to play a significant role in delivering future intelligence to the transport sector. Connected environments could be implemented to collect and process data from fixed and mobile networks to deliver a safe, sustainable and robust future transport system. In the road transport sector such connected environments are commonly termed Cooperative Vehicle Highway Systems (CVHS). This paper provides an overview of CVHS with a more detailed description of the contribution it can make to safety applications. Wireless communications technologies are described followed by a review of selected experiments from the EU-funded EMMA, TRACKSS and SAVE ME projects.
