Infrastructure Enhancements for CAV Navigation

This report presents a review of the main sensors used in connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs). Radar, ultrasonic sensors, a global positioning system, radio-frequency identification, lidar, cameras, inertial measurement units, and capacitive–proximity sensors were detailed, listing their working principles, advantages, and disadvantages. Based on the review, potential measures to address their drawbacks and enhance control and guidance of CAV were proposed. The measures mainly consist of modification of electromagnetic, optical, and thermal properties of infrastructure materials in order for vehicles to communicate with the infrastructure.
