The major objective of this project is to obtain traffic information accurately from existing wireless infrastructure. In this project freeway traffic will be identified and modeled using data obtained from existing wireless cellular networks. Most of the previous research on freeway traffic control assumes the availability of traffic parameters like vehicle velocity and density. Such data is available only at a few locations on major highways where sensor nodes have been pre-deployed. In practical terms, to build a comprehensive network of sensors for this purpose is prohibitive in terms of the cost involved. However, an existing cellular network of a large wireless provider can be used for collecting traffic parameter information. As mobile devices have become very common, these devices can not only provide traffic parameter data but can also be used to receive real time traffic information using mobile applications.
