Accident Detection and Warning Systems in VANET

Accidents pose a grave danger to human life. The frequency with which accidents occur on our roads has risen to such frightening levels that immediate action is required. Reporting an accident as soon as possible to the nearest rescue station can help prevent road traffic collisions. Wireless technology-aided solutions are the primary way of reporting a traffic collision. In the reporting of traffic accidents, wireless technology techniques such as Vehicular Ad-hoc Network (VANET) and the Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM) are often used. As long as vehicles are within range of one another, an ad-hoc network known as a VANET may connect them. Instead, GSM is a wireless communication standard that allows users to send and receive text messages, pictures, and multimedia messaging (MMS) across mobile phone networks. Invariably, fewer people will die, and less property will be damaged if the rescue crew receives accurate information about an accident as soon as possible. The two separate wireless accident reporting methods are discussed in this study. Compare the method’s efficacy against that of other approaches already in use.
