Applied Research on Traffic Information Collection Based on Wireless Sensor Networks

Traditional traffic information collection network bears some disadvantages, such as high-concentrated system load, low-usage of network, limited network pavement, and shocking operation cost and so on. Therefore, this paper proposes to design a brand new traffic information collection system based on wireless sensor networks, in which the distributed treatment of traffic information collection is realized. This paper also puts forward the structure framework of traffic information collection system based on wireless sensor network, and discusses the potential problems in the implementation and related resolution strategies.
