Abstract:

Advanced next generation communications technologies offer the potential to greatly improve safety, system efficiency, and mobility across our Nation’s roadways. These new technologies and processes can address both traditionally difficult as well as entirely new challenges facing the transportation sector by expanding on available solutions, offering more sophisticated approaches, and creating new opportunities. This white paper explores Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs): a unique next-generation technology that can serve as a supplement or an alternative to traditional physical infrastructure-based wireless communications. MANETs are fluid, movable wireless networks that can form independently on an as-needed basis and do not require any fixed networking infrastructure to operate. As connectivity and communication become more vital to transportation needs, there is a tremendous opportunity for the use of MANETs in this field.

The goal of the white paper is to provide a background on how MANETs work and how they can potentially address the transportation needs of tomorrow. It begins by describing the current state of practice for MANETs and their current use in transportation applications. The paper also sets out to describe potential benefits and challenges associated with MANETs and offers potential transportation use-cases which justify further research into wider, transportation-based applications.
