Abstract: Objectives: Designing a Dynamic Signaling System algorithm based on vehicular density to control vehicular traffic and En-hancement of effective designing guidelines for congestion control mechanism. Methods/Statistical analysis: Design congestion control technique for VANETs (Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networks) consists of three important steps as follows i. Congestion Detection, ii. Congestion Notification. iii. Rate Adjustment. Implementation of Dynamic Signaling System Algorithm based on density of vehicles by using IR sensors and ARM processor. Findings: Existing signaling system is based on static time slot allotted to traffic lights. The traffic lights cannot be changed as per changing traffic density. Dynamic Signaling System [DSS] will solve this problem by continuously sensing the density of the vehicles and adjusting the timing of traffic lights. Statistical analysis results shows that dynamic signaling system is better compare to existing signaling system. Application/Improvements: Dynamic signaling system helps to avoid the vehicular traffic and to minimize the traveling time, waiting time of traveler. This will help to enhance future research work in VANETs.
