Abstract :
This paper introduces an intelligent route guidance system based on agent-network, which can automatically guide vehicles by voice. Firstly, the paper presents the system architecture and describes the establishment method of each part. The concept of agent network is introduced to build up the system. Furthermore, a dynamic route algorithm is presented in brief. Communication system integrating the existed infrastructure is discussed and some simulation results are provided to testify the applicability of the proposed wireless data communication system. Moreover, a simulation case study using PARAMICS shows that the system proposed in this paper is feasible and practical. Finally, a conclusion is drawn and some theoretical and technical problems in this system are also presented as future key works.
