• Increased of on-road vehicles lead to increase of accidents

• Human error accounts for 90% of road accidents[1]

• Vehicular Ad Hoc Network (VANET) is introduced to alert drivers on road condition.

• VANET uses Dedicated Short Range Communication (DSRC) and IEEE 802.11p as standard for PHYSICAL and MAC layers in vehicular network.

• Few types of communication: • Vehicle-Vehicle (V2V) • Vehicle-Infrastructure (V2I) • Vehicle-People (V2P)

• TraCI4Matlab acts as a bridge to allow communication between any application written in MATLAB and SUMO.

• It allows user to control SUMO objects such as vehicles, traffic lights, junctions, etc. through MATLAB.

• SUMO configuration file needs to be edited for MATLAB to be able to interface with SUMO.

• There are pros and cons for MATLAB and SUMO in designing VANET’s network.

• However, TraCI4Matlab can help to make MATLAB and SUMO a better simulators for VANET.

• TraCI4Matlab also includes the following controls: • GUI • Lane • Vehicle • Traffic Light
