A Survey of Intelligent Transportation Systems

With the rapid increase of modern economical and technical development, the Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) becomes more and more important and essential for a country. Practice shows that relying only on the construction of transport infrastructure and expansion does not fundamentally solve the existing transportation problems and sometimes it even makes such problems more severe. So every country is actively exploring ITS technology to solve traffic problems. But due to the different situations of the fund investment, current technology merit and the various traffic problems for each country, the development level of ITS and research areas are distinct. This paper focuses on the comparison and analysis of international ITS research and integrates the ITS technologies to design an integration model. We regard the traffic problem as not only a problem for individual countries, but also a global topic. Countries should improve the technology communication, update and enhance ITS techniques.
