Abstract :
This paper presents the RAMPE system intended to assist and help blinds and visual-impaired people in public transportation. This system relies on a network which must provide open connection and access protocol for the user. The network architecture of this system is described along with the different protocols in use, their limitations and the possible enhancements. The simulation of the RAMPE application level with OMNET++ is also presented
