A framework for vehicular accident management using wireless networks

In this paper, a new framework for vehicular accident management using wireless networks is proposed and discussed. We present integrated wireless network architecture for next generation all IP wireless networks which supports our framework. In this architecture we show that different wireless Networks can provide Internet access for moving vehicles. A new distributed system is developed to manage vehicle accidents (anywhere, anytime) such that it communicates accident information with traffic police department, hospital, and Insurance Company. The proposed system is implemented using a test bed. Then the results are discussed.
