String Stability Analysis of Mixed CACC Vehicular Flow With Vehicle-to-Vehicle Communication

Effects of Communication Delay on String Stability in Vehicle Platoons

The throughput of vehicles on highways can be greatly increased by forming vehicle platoons with small inter-vehicle spacings. The control law that maintains stable operation of a platoon is dependent on the lead and preceding vehicle’s position, velocity and acceleration profiles. These profiles guarantee string stability of a platoon and are transmitted via wireless communication networks. Th...

Feasibility Analysis of Vehicle-to-vehicle Communication on Suburban Road

With the evolution of advanced wireless communication technologies, tremendous efforts have been invested in vehicular networking, particularly the construction of a vehicle-to-vehicle communication system that supports high speed and mobility. In vehicle-to-vehicle communication environment, vehicles constantly exchange information using wireless technology. This paper aims to propose a vehicl...

Performance of Vehicle-to-Vehicle Communication using IEEE 802.11p in Vehicular Ad-hoc Network Environment

Traffic safety applications using vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication is an emerging and promising area within the ITS environment. Many of these applications require real-time communication with high reliability. To meet a real-time deadline, timely and predictable access to the channel is paramount. The medium access method used in 802.11p, CSMA with collision avoidance, does not guarantee...

Cooperative Adaptive Cruise Control (CACC) in the Context of Vehicle to Vehicle Communications: An Overview

Vehicle-to-Vehicle Forwarding in Green Vehicular Infrastructure

Smart scheduling can be used to reduce infrastructure-to-vehicle energy costs in delay tolerant vehicular networks (Hammad et al., 2010). In this thesis we show that by combining this with vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) forwarding, energy efficiency can be increased beyond that possible in the single hop case. This is accomplished by having the roadside infrastructure forward packets through vehicles...
