Improve System Emergency Response Performance in Houston-CVT

项目名称：	Improve System Emergency Response Performance in Houston-CVT
摘要：	Emergency response services play a vital role in saving lives and minimizing property damage when major events or incidents happen. The Dedicated Short Range Communication (DSRC) and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technologies have the potential to improve the efficiency and roadway safety related to emergency management services. Researchers will develop and test DSRC- and BLE-based prototype systems for enhancing emergency preemption and notification, and provide TxDOT with guidelines for implementing DSRC and BLE technologies for supporting emergency response services. In addition, the researchers will: (1) Identify methodologies for improving emergency vehicle signal preemption in a connected environment; (2) Develop and test prototype DSRC-based and BLE-based systems to broadcast Signal Phase and Time (SPaT) messages, Emergency Vehicle Alerts (EVAs), and other notifications to emergency vehicles and other roadway users in the vicinity; (3) Enhance signal preemption performance; (4) Assist TxDOT in implementing the prototype systems at selected Houston field sites; and (5) Identify anticipated cost and benefit of the connected emergency response system. The key products of the project include DSRC and BLE prototype systems that operate with TxDOT's infrastructure and guidelines for implementing the system.
