Wimax technology for maritime intelligent transport systems communication

Published: 26 June 2018 Publication History

Abstract

Intelligent transport systems offer effective solutions for the management of road, air and sea traffic. Despite their great success, these systems have several constraints and the multiple challenges that are not limited only to the security of the exchanges but also in the optimization of the routing. Autonomous vessels are currently in the interest of the researchers, several works were dealing with collision avoidance or improved routing. However, few works have been conducted related to the telecommunication between different autonomous vessels or between the same vessels and a centralized management point located in the port using WiMax technology. In this paper, we conduct an evaluation of the performances of inter-vessels communications provided by WiMax technology. The evaluation study was performed using OPNET modeler simulator. The evaluation parameters measures WiMax network performances (Queuing delay and transmission rate), VoIP performances (Jitter, latency, and loss rate), HTTP performances (Response delay and loss rate), QoS mechanisms impact, and mobility influence. the obtained results showed the efficiency of the WiMax technology to reach a good quality communication and a very fast convergence delay.
