A Human-centered Test-bed for Mixed Traffic of Autonomous and Non-autonomous Vehicles

چکیده
A vehicular ad hoc network (VANET) is a vehicular-wireless network enabling vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications and vehicle to infrastructure (V2I) communications. VANET has been under the international spotlight because various applications can be developed by leveraging those wireless communications to avoid vehicular collisions or to save energies. Most of VANET applications have been developed for the operations of non-autonomous vehicles (NAVs). However, due to the recent advanced autonomous vehicle (AV) technologies, human factors affecting the interaction between NAVs and AVs need to be studied. In this paper, we introduce our test-bed for that human factor research. Such a test-bed, various scenarios with V2V communications are possible for human factor experiments. Those scenarios include, a warning message for a vehicular collision can be chosen to be turned on or off, and a proper intersection control protocol without traffic signals can be chosen depending on the existence of NAVs.

Modeling and Intelligent Control System Design for Overtaking Maneuver in Autonomous Vehicles
The purpose of this study is to design an intelligent control system to guide the overtaking maneuver with a higher performance than the existing systems. Unlike the existing models which consider constant values for some of the effective variables of this behavior, in this paper, a neural network model is designed based on the real overtaking data using instantaneous values for variables. A fu...
متن کاملIntersection Management Protocol for Mixed Autonomous and Human-Operated Vehicles
This article proposes a Hybrid Autonomous Intersection Management protocol (H-AIM), which is a variant of the formerly presented Autonomous Intersection Management protocol (AIM). Similar to AIM, H-AIM coordinates the right of way for connected and autonomous vehicles through an intersection in a way that is far more efficient compered to traditional traffic signals. Unlike AIM, H-AIM is shown ...
متن کاملAutonomous Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) Decision Making in Roundabout using Game Theory
Roundabout intersections promote a continuous flow of traffic. Roundabouts entry move traffic through an intersection more quickly, and with less congestion on approaching roads. With the introduction of smart vehicles and cooperative decision-making, roundabout management shortens the waiting time and leads to a more efficient traffic without breaking the traffic laws and earning penalties. Th...
متن کاملScheduling of Multiple Autonomous Guided Vehicles for an Assembly Line Using Minimum Cost Network Flow
This paper proposed a parallel automated assembly line system to produce multiple products having multiple autonomous guided vehicles (AGVs). Several assembly lines are configured to produce multiple products in which the technologies of machines are shared among the assembly lines when required. The transportation between the stations in an assembly line (intra assembly line) and among station...
متن کاملMotion planning of autonomous vehicles in a non-autonomous vehicle environment without speed lanes
Planning is one of the key problems for autonomous vehicles operating in road scenarios. Present planning algorithms operate with the assumption that traffic is organized in predefined speed lanes, which makes it impossible to allow autonomous vehicles in countries with unorganized traffic. Unorganized traffic is though capable of higher traffic bandwidths when constituting vehicles vary in the...
