Design of an alert scheme using RF technology for ensuring safety of individuals in wireless Ad-hoc Network

Abstract

Vehicular Ad hoc Network (VANET) and Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) provide a distinguish approach for Intelligent Transport System (ITS). There are many applications in VANET which provide secure message passing and circulating of data within the range. But there are very few applications where human security is taken into consideration. In new applications we can make a one which provides safety for human beings on road or indirectly related to roads or vehicles, can be solved using VANET principles and technologies. Instead of using mobile phones to connect humans and vehicles we can use a gadget which produces a panic alarm through the vehicles, using Radio Frequency (RF) technology and also send these messages to the helping people using GSM technique. When panic switch is triggered, the car help system gets activated which is in the close vicinity of victim, so that a temporary help is made by creating a mob.
