Abstract

There is a need to develop an Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) that can manage the traffic flow without causing any issues. An increasing number of vehicles, with a variable network density, results in difficulty for the development of ITS. Vehicular Ad Hoc Network (VANET) makes it possible to communicate the information among the vehicles by using roadside units deployed along with the roadsides, application unit, and on board unit deployed within the vehicle. By creating a virtual link between the vehicles, it will be easy to make communication possible among the vehicles. It would help the transportation system to communicate all informational messages among the vehicles. VANETs are included in Sustainable Goals by the US government, and it is also considered as a challenging goal for India as well. This paper presents a survey on the basics of VANET, its components, communication among vehicles, characteristics, and applications classified based on the safety and comfort of the traveller.
