Internet Of Things
Internet of Things: The Vision
Internet of Things: A vision by Mark Weiser to extend Internet
of computers to include objects or things in the real world and
to access them to enable Ubiquitous Computing. It is called as
the Internet of Things.
Enablers for Internet of Things:
Everyday gadgets have turned into Smart objects
empowered by microelectronics and having embedded
computing and communications capabilities, they can

computing and communications capabilities, they can
revolutionize their utility .
Developments in Internet technology and wireless
communications have enabled to form a network of smart
objects in which they can communicate with each other to
provide new useful services for different domains like

IoT Applications for Connected Vehicle and Intelligent Transport Systems
Characteristics Of Internet Of Things
Network of very large no. of smart physical objects mostly
using wireless communication and with a local Server for overall
control.
Each smart object has intelligence to read data from sensors
and to drive the actuators as per the programmed logic.
Smart objects may not be stationary and the network must be
self-configuring.
Data from smart objects is heterogeneous and unstructured
IoT Applications for Connected Vehicle and Intelligent Transport Systems
Data from smart objects is heterogeneous and unstructured
since it comes from diverse sources.
The required response time for the smart object is critical to
implement Real Time control. The object needs to be supported
with information and processing power by the Server.
Information security of the network is important to guard
privacy and to protect the smart objects from unauthorized
access.
Cloud Computing For Internet Of Things
Cloud Computing:
Internet of computer workstations shares resources for storage and
computing. The resources are located in a central Data Center away from the
workstation and are said to a form a Cloud. Cloud provides services to meet
computing needs of all client workstations and the paradigm is called as Cloud
computing.
Challenges in application of Cloud Computing for Internet of Things:
The limited communication and computing resources of smart objects
IoT Applications for Connected Vehicle and Intelligent Transport Systems
The limited communication and computing resources of smart objects
do not permit direct connection to Cloud Server.
The latency in response from Cloud Server may not be adequate for
Real Time analysis and control applications in Internet of Things.
Solution:
Introducing small Servers as clients of main cloud Server and locate
these very near to the smart objects forming Internet of Things.
In contrast to main server in Cloud, these small servers are near edge or
ground level of network (like a fog); hence they are called Fog servers and
the paradigm is called as Fog Computing.
Need For Fog Computing
Fog Computing:
Fog Computing extends storage and computing services of Cloud to the Edge of
the network to serve Smart objects in Internet of Things.
Advantages of Fog Computing:
Fog Server uses IPv6 protocol to handle very large no of Smart Objects
(The 128 bit address can handle 3.4x 1038 objects)
Fog Server reduces latency to few milliseconds by acting at three levels:
Data latency is reduced by taking snapshot of data in memory just
IoT Applications for Connected Vehicle and Intelligent Transport Systems
Data latency is reduced by taking snapshot of data in memory just
when it is required.
Analysis latency is reduced by using Real Time Analytics which uses in-
memory techniques to use snapshots of data from multiple smart
objects.
Action latency is reduced by direct connection with the smart object.
Use of GPS and similar technologies enables Fog Server to use location
based context while computing and providing required results for the
application.

Connected Vehicle
A connected vehicle forms the important segment of ITS Architecture; all
types of passenger and commercial vehicles are grouped under this segment.
Important Facts:
A connected vehicle is capable of sharing its information(position, direction
and speed) using wireless links with other vehicles on road (V2V). Also it can
communicate with infrastructures like signal, road sign, bus stop, toll
stations, fuel pumps etc using vehicle to infrastructure (V2I) communication.
The wireless communication technologies used by a connected vehicle
IoT Applications for Connected Vehicle and Intelligent Transport Systems
The wireless communication technologies used by a connected vehicle
include GSM, Bluetooth, ZigBee, Wi-Fi & Wi-Max and DSRC(Dedicated
Short Range Communication).
Communication technologies in Connected Vehicle have a larger range of
up to 1000 meters and have a higher potential to protect the vehicle from
crashes with obstacles and other vehicles on road as compared to on-vehicle
Radars, Cameras and LIDAR systems.
While safety systems like Air Bag help to survive the occupant after a crash,
the V2V and V2I communications help to prevent the accident itself.

IoT Applications for Connected Vehicle and Intelligent Transport Systems
A novel approach which uses computing power and storage capacity of
vehicles on road is receiving attention of all concerned. It is called as Vehicular
Cloud Computing(VCC) which forms a cloud by using the idle computing power
and storage of the vehicles participating in the formation of the cloud.
Typical scenarios in which VCC can be used with advantage are:
Airport parking space.
Collision and accident warning on highways.
Traffic control at intersections & in traffic jam conditions.
Concluding Remarks…
The effective implementation of ITS is hampered in many cases due to lack of
connectivity between various stakeholders and systems in transport domain
and also due to lack of communication with other domains.
Internet of Things aims to bring all gadgets, systems, smart objects of all
domains under one umbrella of communication to provide a Common
Operating Picture for easier visualization of new services to benefit individuals
and to protect the environment.
IoT Applications for Connected Vehicle and Intelligent Transport Systems
As new developments for eco-friendly, energy efficient and safer mobility
solutions lead to growth of smart transport systems and increasingly
autonomous vehicles, the concepts of Internet of Things will help to find
innovative approaches to meet the challenges.
The developments in the field of Information Technology and
Microelectronics will act as catalyst to implement reliable solutions for ITS and
Automotive domain, based on Internet of Things at an affordable cost.

Six different orbits with four to six satellites in each orbit. 4. At least four satellites visible at any point on earth at all time. 5. Satellites controlled and maintained by Ground Control Stations. 6. Each satellite sends its position & time stamp based on Atomic clock . 7. A special RF receiver detects the extremely weak (-160dBm) signal from at GPS Constellation IoT Applications for Connected Vehicle and Intelligent Transport Systems 7. A special RF receiver detects the extremely weak (-160dBm) signal from at least four satellites to calculate its own position. Position Calculation Methodology: 1. All satellite clocks & clock on GPS receiver synchronized. 2. Time difference Td = current time of receiver – time stamp of satellite signal received. 3. Distance of GPS receiver from satellite = Td x speed of light 4. Location of receiver in XY plane = lower intersection of circles with radii as distances and centers as position of satellites. 5. Use of two more satellites allows calculation of position in 3D and eliminates errors due to drift of Atomic clocks used.
