Many safety applications needed safety warning information to be disseminated to all vehicles in an area quickly. A path prediction model was built from the fused evidences by evidence theory, in which the basic probability assignment function of the local load and the old path load could be achieved using fuzzy set. And the loads became the evidences of the dissemination path prediction respectively. The prediction result with the maximal confidence was regarded as the quasi-real-time dissemination path load. Simulations show that the average end-to-end delay of safety information under heavy load with path prediction is less than the half of the delay without path prediction. However, the average packets loss rate of two schemes is almost the same.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
