As a result, extra vehicle emissions may be produced in an airport area. Even though there are limited studies on such emissions at airports, these estimations were normally based on the date emission models, which might cause bias in emission estimations. This paper proposes an approach to employ the floating car method and Global Positioning System (GPS) to record speeds and acceleration rates of idling and cycling vehicles at airport terminals. The tests were conducted under different time periods and traffic demands with different waiting time. The speeds and acceleration rates are synthesized to yield Vehicle Specific Power's (VSP) and Operational Mode (OM) distributions. Utilizing the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) emission estimation model Motor Vehicle Emission Simulator (MOVES), pollutants and green house gas emission indexes (e.g. NOx, CO, CO2 and HC) and fuel consumptions can be easily estimated. As an illustration of the proposed approach, the research team collected GPS data at a terminal in Houston William Hobby Airport (HOU), and calculated the VSP distributions and OM distributions. Emissions of passenger-picking-up vehicles around these congested airport terminals.展开更多

To provide a flexible and high reliable communication service in VANET, vehicles are clustered to construct many small networks (clusters) so that channel interferences and flooding messages can be limited. This research presents a novel Multi-Resolution Relative Speed Detection (MRSD) model to improve the clustering algorithm in VANET without using Global Positioning System (GPS). MRSD uses the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), the Momentum of Received Signal Strength (MRSS), and Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) to estimate the motion state and the relative speed of a vehicle based purely on Received Signal Strength. The proposed MRSD model is accurate with the assistance of the intelligent classification, and incurs less overhead in the cluster head election than that of other algorithms.展开更多

GPS receiver on smartphones has been developed for location-based applications. Smartphones are very suitable to be used as an experimental tool, because smartphones are usually equipped with various types of sensors. This paper proposes a model observation vehicle speed on a road section based on the GPS data on the smartphone. Observations made by calculating the speed of the speed of vehicles moving through the data transfer at the GPS location of the smartphone, the data are then sent periodically to the server and server processing and storage of vehicle speed data. After tested with test reliability indicators use RMSE, observations with model observations speed, speed based on GPS data on a smartphone are relevant when compared with the speed directly from the vehicle's speedometer with the difference between the value of the difference of speed that is 3.1785 km/h.展开更多
