Achievable Performance Gains by Connected Driving
Over the years, automotive manufacturers have invested big efforts to reduce accidents and improve fuel efficiency, and at the same time to improve comfort and driving conditions. But the problem of traffic management on highways and in cities still persists, which results in increased fuel consumption, emissions and wastage of time. V2X communication technologies have been proposed as a means to further increase traffic safety and efficiency, wherein vehicles exchange information with other vehicles in their proximity and make collective decisions. This information exchange between vehicles enables them to not only make accurate and calculated split-second decisions, but also gives them the ability to remain connected over the network for commercial applications and real-time services. This paper aims to show the benefits of these network-connected vehicles in terms of improvements in traffic efficiency, emissions and time. These improvements are shown via two scenarios – shockwaves and connected traffic junction. Simulation of Urban Mobility (SUMO) along with a network model is used to model and reflect a more realistic traffic and network behavior. Key performance indicators such as traffic throughput, time-to-travel, emissions, etc. show a positive trend when compared to the conventional scenarios.
