Algorithms for Road Safety Based on GPS and Communications Systems WAVE

Road accidents are problems of great importance to all humanity. The objective is to develop a system, through WAVE communication, V2X, which act so as to alert the driver of collisions risk, implementing algorithms that uses data received by a GPS system. Highlighting three scenarios: crossing or intersection; sudden approach to the vehicle ahead and road curves. Results show that it is possible to avoid road accidents, obtaining the indication of a collision risk with crossing vehicle 15 meters before interception.
