Congestion and Awareness Control in Cooperative Vehicular Systems

Abstract

Abstract-Cooperative vehicular systems have been identified as a promising solution to overcome the current and future needs for increasing traffic safety and efficiency, while providing infotainment and added-value services on the move. To achieve their objectives, cooperative vehicular systems will be based on wireless communications between vehicles and with other infrastructure nodes, and will have to deal with highly dynamic nodes, challenging propagation conditions, and stringent application requirements. By looking at cooperative applications and their data traffic, as well as the current and foreseen spectrum allocations for cooperative vehicular systems, there is a risk that the corresponding radio channels could easily be saturated if no control algorithms are used. The saturation of the radio channels would result in unstable vehicular communications, and thus in an inefficient operation of cooperative systems. As a prime example of upcoming ubiquitous networks contributing to the vision of "a thousand radios per person", cooperative vehicular systems need to be designed to scale to high densities of radios without centralized coordination, while at the same time guaranteeing the requirements of the implemented applications and services, for example the stringent needs of active traffic safety applications. In this paper, we survey and classify various decentralized methods to control the load on the radio channels and to ensure each vehicle's capacity to detect and communicate with the relevant neighbouring vehicles, with a particular focus on approaches based on transmit power and rate control. Finally, we discuss the open research challenges that are imposed by different application requirements and potential existing contradictions.

Intelligent Beaconing Principle based Congestion Free Routing in Vanet

“…Its behavior is highly trusted within the networking community. We have compared and verified that our system gives a better result compared to the existing system [13] Figure 5.1Performance Evaluation. We have compared our result considering the nodes and their time on which they reach their neighbor node which is of shortest distance.…”

“…This "perfect" convergence avoids the limit cycle behavior that is inherent to binary control. They also discussed several practical associated with implementing LIMERIC, including guidelines for the choice of the system [13] parameters to obtain desired utilization outcomes, then saturation technique that maintained robust convergence under all conditions, convergence with asynchronous updates, and used channel load to determine the aggregated message rate [1] that is observable at a receiver. This paper also extended the analysis and it has the two classes, the first one is measurement noise in the input signal and delay in the updated process.…”

A Survey on Platoon-Based Vehicular Cyber-Physical Systems

“…Beacon congestion problem was investigated in [105] from the distributed control theory perspective. Proactive and reactive controllers can be integrated into the beacon congestion control system, where the former estimates the desired transmission parameters via the accurate system model according to current neighboring information (e.g., number of nodes), while the latter adapts the feedback mechanism to achieve the control robustness.…”

Road Perception Based Geographical Routing Protocol for Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks

“…The vehicles are travelling with a speed of 40-70 km/h. The experiments are restricted in [28]. The vehicular density is set with 100 to 350 nodes and each vehicle generates beacon message of 0.5 s intervals.…”
