Taxi Hailing System Using Connected Vehicle Technology

Hoque, Mohammad A., Hong, Xiaoyan, Dixon, Brandon 01 January 2014 (has links)
This paper presents an innovative system for taxi hailing service using V2X communication platform. This proposed system does not require any established operational center or explicit prior booking request through central operator like existing automated taxi dispatching systems. Rather, it provides distributed, self-organized and real time service of hailing a taxi cab in urban area. Our proposed application can be implemented using the state of the art DSRC communication platform in both V2V and V2I mode. In this paper, we introduce our designs of the system and the protocols, and present preliminary evaluation results that reveals numerous benefits of implementing this system. Based on the primary results obtained from real world GPS traces, it can be predicted that, our proposed system can significantly increase the availability of taxi cabs while reducing the wait time for the passenger. At the same time, from the perspective of a taxi driver, it can reduce the empty cruising time and increase daily trip count and eventually help increase the revenue of the taxi company.
