Traffic management: Connection of real-time data (FCD) for more mobility

Modern traffic management means connecting the vehicle to traffic information and traffic capacities. The vehicle as well as stationary services send data which allows efficient control of the traffic flow.

The steadily growing number of vehicles on the street makes intelligent traffic management systems vital. These systems connect real-time data real-time data
Real-time data is data which is processed immediately. Unlike statistical data, real-time data shows momentary values which change dynamically. This data is also called Floating Car Data (FCD) or Extended Floating Car Data (XFCD). from different sources – the basis for optimized traffic control. With the collected data, the traffic management system controls traffics lights and road signs depending on the mass of traffic. The driver profits from faster traveling, less fuel consumption and reduced emissions.

More efficiency with real-time data

While traffic management systems of the past use statistical data, the AUDIO MOBIL traffic management uses real-time data (XFCD). The collected data contains vehicle data like friction coefficient, momentary fuel consumption and temperature which are anonymized and transmitted by V2X communication components.

Additionally, the vehicle receives information about the current traffic volume (e.g. at the destination) or condition of the destined route. The information comes from location based services on the one hand but also from other vehicles which constantly send anonymized data to the traffic management.

More time, more money, more quality of life

AUDIO MOBIL has gathered all its know-how in telematics telematics
Telematics is a term composed of telecommunication and informatics. Telematics links the technologies from the two fields and is the basis for e.g. the internet or telephone networks. and telemetrics to create an intelligent traffic management where the human user is in the foreground. The user benefits from time and money savings. The advantages for OEMs and road network operators are clear: They can offer their customers a holistic solution guaranteeing the individual mobility of the future with the technology and service of AUDIO MOBIL.
