Learn MoreIntelligent Transportation System (ITS) enables smart traffic management and provides various innovative services including better safety, more road information, etc., which has drawn a lot of attention. The development of next-generation ITS services and applications must depend on more accurate positioning information at decimeter to even centimeter-level. Such capabilities are crucial because all of the innovative applications are based on the precise positioning of land vehicles. For example, for Vehicle-To-Vehicle (V2V), an automobile technology designed to allow automobiles to communicate with each other to avoid traffic accidents and improve the traffic efficiency. The V2V technology has been extended to V2X to include Vehicle-to-Pedestrian, Vehicle-to-Infrastructure and Vehicle-to-Pedestrian. These innovative technologies and the emerging autonomous cars are becoming significant components of next-generation ITS systems. Without the accurate positioning information as the foundation, the mentioned technologies are impossible to be achieved. TO BE CONT’D
