Abstract
We developed a simulation framework for holistic analysis of complex UMTS-based Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). This framework couples simulation models of the UMTS link level, of higher network layers, and of road traffic. ITS are a hot topic in the communications society. Currently, research is primarily focusing on setting up Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs) based on WLAN technology. However, VANETs are heavily dependent on high market penetration or infrastructure support. Third-generation (3G) networks might complement these efforts. They are already widely deployed and can serve as the basis for Car-to-Infrastructure (C2I) applications. Based on our simulation framework, we evaluated a UMTS-based Traffic Information Systems (TISs) in a typical highway scenario in which information about traffic jams needed to be communicated to other cars for optimized route planning. The network setup is fictional; however, it clearly outlines the capabilities of the simulation framework as the measurement results are consistent with reasonable expectations.
