Pedestrian and Vehicular Traffic Characteristics for Synthetic-Hybrid Mobility Models
نویسندگان
چکیده
Synthetic mobility models can be used to simulate the movement of a traffic unit or a group of traffic units in a telecommunication network. Characteristics of pedestrian and vehicular traffic, such as speed-flow, speed-density and flow density are often neglected in current synthetic mobility models. The analysis, emulation and simulation of telecommunication networks with mobile users using models such as the random walk are therefore inaccurate. This paper presents a review of pedestrian and vehicular characteristics and classifies them using the concept of Level of Service. This paper highlights parameters that can be used to improve the accuracy of synthetic mobility models. In the case of vehicular traffic the paper also presents street classification which will further improve the realism of synthetic models. Key-words:Pedestrian, Vehicular, Synthetic, Mobility Model

متن کاملLiquid Humans - Pedestrian Simulator based on the LWR-model
Dense human flow has been a concern for the safety of public events for a long time. Macroscopic pedestrian models, which are mainly based on fluid dynamics, are often used to simulate huge crowds due to their low computational costs (COLOMBO and ROSINI, 2005). Similar approaches are used in the field of traffic simulations (LIGHTHILL and WHITHAM, 1955). A combined macroscopic simulation of veh...

If the full range of applications and protocols that exploit vehicular networks are going to be adopted then it is key to understand the performance characteristics of these networks: both the spatial and temporal properties. Many of the applications, services and protocols that could drive deployment of vehicular networking can only be developed if we understand the properties of the network t...
متن کاملUrban Mobility Models for VANETs
Mobility models, or the movement patterns of nodes communicating wirelessly, play a vital role in the simulation-based evaluation of Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs). Although recent research has developed models that better correspond to real world mobility, we still have a limited understanding of the level of the required level of mobility details for modeling and simulating VANETs. In thi...
