A V2I-based real-time traffic density estimation system in urban scenarios

The number of vehicles in our roads is drastically increasing, especially in developing countries. In addition, these vehicles tend to be concentrated in urban areas which present a large population. Since traffic jams have important and mostly negative consequences, such as increasing travel time,...

In addition, these vehicles tend to be concentrated in urban areas which present a large population. Since traffic jams have important and mostly negative consequences, such as increasing travel time, fuel consumption, and air pollution, governments are making efforts to alleviate the increasing traffic pressure, being vehicular density one of the main metrics used for assessing the road traffic conditions.
