Scalability of V2V and V2I Communications in the Context of Sustainable Mobility
Authors: , , , ,
Abstract: Fuel economy and environmental sustainability are currently under the spotlight of research in the area of Intelligent Transport Systems. The project CARMA introduces the novel concept of sharing and distribution of the “travelling experience” acquired by the vehicles, rendering them capable of learning over time to predict (and thus avoid) energy-consuming routes. Special focus is given on V2V and V2I interfaces and interactions, as a means of sharing this travelling experience and creating a large database of travelled routes. V2V interactions will allow a direct (decentralized) distribution of information, while V2I interactions will enable the central platform to have a global view of travelling experiences (historical data) as well as context information (near real-time data). This paper identifies the main types of data and corresponding communication flows, and focuses on the scalability issues of the information exchange for different types of wireless access networks.
