INTRODUCTION

Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) is a combination of

leading-edge information and communication technologies
used in transportation and traffic management systems to
improve the safety, efficiency, and sustainability of
transportation networks, to reduce traffic congestion and to
enhance drivers’ experiences. The possibilities are endless.
These possibilities will only happen if Road Administrations
have a clear and considered strategy for bringing existing
disparate systems, services, and operational approaches
together over time. Intelligent Transport Services business
provides expertise in the planning, design, implementation,
and operation of solutions that focus on maximizing system
performance. ITS master plans, updated regional ITS
architectures, and provided plans, specifications, and
estimates for deployment of field equipment. “Intelligent
transportation systems” (ITS) refers to efforts that apply
information, communication, and sensor technologies to
vehicles and transportation infrastructure in order to provide
real-time information for road users and transportation system
operators to make better decisions. ITS aim to improve traffic
safety relieves traffic congestion, reduce air pollution, increase
energy efficiency, and improve homeland security. ITS
encompass a suite of measures that address the above
objectives: advanced traffic management systems, advanced
traveler information systems, advanced public transportation
systems, the intelligent vehicle initiative, the commercial
vehicle operations program, etc. The recent development of
ITS emphasizes the application of dedicated short-range
communications in vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-roadside
wireless communications that is, connected vehicle
technology according to the US Department of
Transportation. Future intelligent transportation systems are
hard to imagine without autonomous wheeled vehicles. One
important application is an automated platoon of vehicles on
highways that can drive autonomously in so-called virtual
train formation. Vehicles in this platoon should precisely and
safely follow their leader vehicles with minimal safety
distance required. This would increase vehicle density on
highways, avoid traffic jams, and increase safety. In this
exercise a control algorithm of mobile robots driving in linear
formation will be designed. To obtain automated driving
formation precise sensor systems are required, measuring
global information such as GPS or relative information such
as distance and bearing or both. Here we will implement a
decentralized control strategy relying only on a relative sensor
laser range finder. Suppose that each vehicle has LRF to
measure the distance and the azimuth of its leading vehicle.
This information is then used to record and track the path of
the leader vehicle. The leading vehicle path is recorded in
local coordinates of the follower using odometer and LRF
measurement. Intelligent transportation systems (ITSs) offer
some promise for reducing freight transportation’s external
costs. Intelligent freight transportation uses advanced
technologies and intelligent decision making to make existing
infrastructure for freight transportation more efficient.
Freight ITS benefits from reduced delay and congestion costs
because of the development of integrated systems.
Containerized cargo is the main focus in some intelligent
freight transportation because it reduces handling cost and
loading and unloading time, increases storage efficiency, and
increases average payloads. Freight ITS benefits from reduced
