INTRODUCTION
Ad hoc networks -Wireless devices
-No centralized infrastructure

Multi hop ad hoc networks

-Mobile nodes
Arbitrary and temporary network topologies Used in disaster recovery environments Single hop ad hoc networks -Same transmission range VANET Mesh Networks

EXISTING SYSTEM
1. TIMERS Fixed time interval

2. SENSORS Coils placed in loops in the grooves in the road Inductive loops
Vehicles over the loop

Inductance increases

Drawbacks associated with both the systems

PROPOSED SYSTEM Simulating multi hop ad hoc network Peer-to peer Multi hop

Exchanging status info Implemented using Java

Networking capabilities Graphical Interface

TOKEN RING PROTOCOL

Special 3-byte frame-token Token circulating around the ring Node holding the token allowed to transmit for a fixed duration.

Token Ring Protocol

DESCRIPTION

IMPLEMENTATION
Communication
Ad hoc network communication Client Server Implementation Running code infinitely

Graphical User Interface

Experimental setup Traffic lights Status change

Processes involved in traffic light system

Traffic light1 no

Elapsed timer TL1?

yes Traffic light2

no

Elapsed timer TL2?

yes

Traffic light N

no

Elapsed timer TLN?

yes

PERFORMANCE EVALUATION
Experimental setup Analysis using 4 nodes Ethereal Statistical performance
Average transition time (milliseconds) Throughput

DISCUSSION OF RESULTS
Real life application Transmitting signals
Java implementation Simple study

Transmitting and receiving signals for traffic light systems Infinite loop Future studies and research

DIFFERENT SCENARIOS
Manual Interruption
Token Ring Fashion

Loss of Token
Timers (Blink signal) Self initializing

Node Failure
Timers/Self Initialization

Security
Hackers Sniff token/packets

FUTURE IMPROVEMENTS
Self initializing module Security
Encryption techniques Protection of tokens

ADVANTAGES
Ability to withstand harsh environmental conditions

17

Ability to cope with node failures

DISADVANTAGES

18

Limited power they can harvest or store

Communication failures

CONCLUSION
Token ring systems Traffic light systems using ad hoc networks Constructed in very short time Reliable
Traffic controllers
