Simulation of traffic movement in vanet using sumo

Abstract

VANETS are expected to support a large spectrum of mobile distributed applications that ranging from traffic alert dissemination and dynamic route planning to context-aware advertisement and file sharing. In VANET, or Intelligent Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networking, it defines the intelligent way of using Vehicular Networking. VANET integrates on the multiple ad-hoc networking technologies. In VANET helps in defining the safety measures in the vehicles, streaming communication between different vehicles, infotainment and telematics. Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks are expected to implement a variety of wireless technologies like Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC) which is a type of WiFi. Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks can be viewed as component of the Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). "Simulation of Urban Mobility", or "SUMO" for short, is an open source, microscopic, multi-model traffic simulation. It allows to simulate how the given traffic demand that is consists of single vehicles moves through a given roadmap. The simulation allows addressing a large number of set of traffic management topics. It is purely microscopic in nature: each vehicle is modelled explicitly, has its own route, and moves individually through the network. After having generated a network, one could take the look at it with the help of SUMO-GUI, but no cars would be driving around. One must need some kind of description about the vehicles. We can it as his the traffic demand.
