- WiCAR - Simulating towards the Wireless CarPublication . Kurunathan, John Harrison; Severino, Ricardo; Tovar, EduardoAdvanced driving assistance systems (ADAS) pose stringent requirements to a system’s control and communications, in terms of timeliness and reliability, hence, wireless communications have not been seriously considered a potential candidate for such deployments. However, recent developments in these technologies are supporting unprecedented levels of reliability and predictability. This can enable a new generation of ADAS systems with increased flexibility and the possibility of retrofitting older vehicles. However, to effectively test and validate these systems, there is a need for tools that can support the simulation of these complex communication infrastructures from the control and the networking perspective. This paper introduces a co-simulation framework that enables the simulation of an ADAS application scenario in these two fronts, analyzing the relationship between different vehicle dynamics and the delay required for the system to operate safely, exploring the performance limits of different wireless network configurations.
- Edge-aided V2X collision avoidance with platoons: Towards a hybrid evaluation toolsetPublication . Pereira, João; Kurunathan, Harrison; Filho, Ênio; Santos, Pedro M.Infrastructure-brokered collision avoidance is an Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) application built on top of Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) links. An edge-hosted ITS service receives information from road-side sensors (or CAM messages in V2X-enabled vehicles) and detects impending collisions where vehicles cannot sense or contact each other directly. If so happens, it issues a warning message through network-to-vehicle links. Another relevant ITS application is platooning, through which vehicles following each other closely can benefit of improved fuel economy, and that can be further enhanced through communication. In case of emergency braking in platoons, the response times of network and edge-hosted services must be minimal to ensure no collision amongst the platoon or any other road user. In this paper we present the implementation of a simulation framework tailored (but not limited) to evaluate the presented use-case. This complex and multi-layered use-case can be handled by a dedicated ITS service that leverages the sensing, radio and computing resources available at infrastructure and vehicles, and requires a realistic evaluation framework prior to deployment. Such framework is mostly based on simulation, albeit, to the extent possible, actual devices or services should be used; the present work is a step towards that hybrid setup.
