V2X Wireless Communication

Abstract

Assessment of automatic and connected vehicle driving tests is vital when building reliable traffic simulation platforms. The main components of a traffic simulation platform, traffic environment and vehicular models are overgeneralized in the existing traffic simulators. State-of-the-art simulators for road traffic generally make simple the functioning of connected and autonomous (CA) vehicles. It offers the additional advancements to the existing road-traffic flow modelling techniques. The traditional autonomous vehicular simulators only emphasize distinct authentication functionality in particular traffic environments, neglecting the network level assessment when incorporating both vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication and extensive vehicular traffic networks. This article proposes a concept for a road-traffic simulation framework designed for Connected and Automated-Driving (CAD) considering cyber-physical transport system. The trio of prevalent open-source simulation platforms, SUMO, Omnet++, and Webots are attached via Traffic-Control-Interface (TRACI).
