Internet of Things Enabled Vehicular and Ad Hoc Networks for Smart City Traffic Monitoring and Controlling: A Review

Traffic Congestion is becoming a huge issue in the cities of both developing and developed countries. One prominent solution is to solve this issue in terms of smart cities. In smart cities, all end points including people, houses, buildings, and vehicles are connected to each other through some networking technology. The most considered technologies include Internet of Things (IOT) and adhoc networks. The smart city project can also be applied through the combination of IOT and adhoc network. The literature studies show that a very rare work is done on the combination of traffic congestion, IOT and adhoc networks in terms of smart cities. This paper presents an overview of this technology which will help the readers to consider these technologies related to the smart city-based traffic management.
