The need for vehicular traffic monitoring systems (VTMS) is escalating at alarming rates all across the world. This is especially the case in India. With the advent of internet of things (IoT), smarter systems are being designed to ensure smoother flow of traffic. Besides being ‘smart’, these systems are also required to be simple, cheap, efficient and easy to implement. This paper shows a design of a VTMS with energy-based routing scheme (EBRS) that makes use of wireless sensor nodes. The scenario is designed in NetSim and the simulation results are analysed qualitatively and quantitatively in terms of percentage variations. Prototype of an IoT-based hardware setup using SENSEnuts modules is validated

An ideal routing algorithm is one which finds the best/shortest path(s) for transmitting the data between source and destination in a short time. In this study, we have proposed two approaches; one is based on minimum spanning tree (MST) and the other one is based on distance vector method (DVM). For MST, a genetic algorithm is used. The chromosomes used are of variable length and their genes are used for encoding. The crossover and mutation operations are used for genetic diversity and improving the convergence rate. The second method is based on DVM to cover the limitations of the first approach as well the traditional DVM. The developed algorithm finds the shortest path for a static mesh connected mobile nodes. It is then tested for dynamicity by varying the positions of a few nodes. Extensive simulations are carried out on both the approaches and the results are compared with other popular algorithms. © 2018 Inderscience Enterprises Ltd.
