Analyzing the Impact of Wireless Multi-Hop Networking On Vehicular Safety

TL;DRAbstract

One of the core challenges of Intelligent Transportation System is the dissemination of timely and accurate vehicle information (e.g. speed, position) to geographically large distances without compromising data supply rates from immediate neighbors. This feature is critical for the design of vehicle safety and navigation applications. Single hop broadcasting is often inadequate to ensure vehicle safety when the platoon size is arbitrarily large due to its upper bound on rate and range of wireless message transmission. Existing wireless multi-hop protocols do not ensure reliable message delivery while avoiding network congestion in the shared channel. In this thesis, we make two separate but related investigations to address this challenge - (1) Analyze the impact of distance sensitive multi-hop broadcasting in realistic traffic network (2) Analyze the impact of wireless multi-hop network in vehicle safety. For investigating the first part, we used VCAST, a distance sensitive informatio
