Title of the paper : Lane Prediction Optimization and Secure Traffic Management Using Vanet

Abstract: The surging vehicle ownership in India has heightened concerns over road safety and crippling traffic congestion, exacerbated by inadequate road infrastructure. This congestion has far-reaching consequences, including time wastage, increased energy consumption, vehicle wear and tear, elevated emissions, delayed emergency responses, accidents, disrupted deliveries, decreased productivity, missed economic opportunities, cost escalation, and adverse health impacts. To tackle these challenges, Vehicle Ad Hoc Networks VANETs, a specialized wireless networking technology for intelligent transportation systems, emerge as a promising solution to ensure safer travel for all. VANETs encompass Vehicle-to-Vehicle V2V and Vehicle-to-Infrastructure V2I communication, facilitated by Trusted Authorities TAs, Roadside Units RSUs, and On-Board Units OBUs. However, while VANETs offer substantial benefits, they also introduce security concerns as broadcasted messages can be manipulated or altered. Mitigating these risks necessitates the implementation of a Traffic Management System to monitor and respond to unforeseen road events, providing real-time alerts and route adjustments to ensure smoother traffic flow and safer journeys.
