Establishing an advanced, intelligent transportation system involves integrating data, video, and voice over IP networks to set up a surveillance management system. The stability and reliability of network communication is at the core of constructing an ITS. Moxa provides excellent solutions for ITS, with many choices available to fit your own traffic control application. ROADWAY TRAFFIC CONTROL SOLUTIONITS (Intelligent Transportation Systems) are playing a major role in modern transportation construction, with ITS technology applied to roadway traffic control systems. In general, ITS involves integrating communication, control, and electronics technologies, and are used to monitor and manage traffic flow, reduce congestion, provide alternative routes to travelers, and enhance productivity to save lives, time, and money. REQUIREMENTS OF ROADWAY TRAFFIC SYSTEMSA roadway system designed with a solid and reliable networking infrastructure and perfect traffic control/display strategy can help to ensure higher performance. The following items are what's needed to create the roadway system. Real-time surveillance and capture: video surveillance must be available to provide real-time pictures of actual traffic conditions. Wireless network: traffic controllers at each intersection in the road group can synchronize the information by using wireless to transmit at least some portion of the signal over either a wireless or wired network, helping save on the cost of cabling. Embedded computing: the embedded computer calculates control signals in real-time to make the right traffic management decisions. Redundant power and network: redundancy plays an important role in transportation systems, since it can help keep the system running non-stop. Extended temperature: in general, devices used for transportation automation must be able to operate in and withstand extreme temperature conditions, such as from -40°C to 75°C. MOXA'S NETWORKING SOLUTIONS FOR ROADWAY SYSTEMSThe stability and reliability of network communication is at the core of constructing an intelligent transportation system. Moxa provides many industrial device networking solutions designed to control and manage traffic data for various sites, including: Serial to Ethernet/wi-fi solutions: allows the vehicle detector and CMS (Changeable Message System) to communicate via a wired or wireless LAN. Industrial wireless AP/bridge/AP clients: allows wireless devices to connect to wired LANs. Industrial ethernet switches: built-in Ethernet and power redundancy, and robust enough to work in harsh environments. Embedded computers: ideal for running dedicated programs for dynamic and real-time computations and control. Video servers: monitor the traffic situation on-line and capture images in real-time over the network.
