Abstract

VANET technologies provide real-time traffic information for mitigating traffic jam and preventing traffic accidents, as well as in-vehicle infotainment service through Telematics/Intelligent Transportation System (ITS). Due to the rapid increasement of various requirements, the vehicle communication with a limited resource and the fixed frame architecture of the conventional techniques is limited to provide an efficient communication service. Therefore, a new flexible operation depending on the surrounding situation information is required that needs an adaptive design of the network architecture and protocol for efficiently predicting, distributing and sharing the context-aware information. In this paper, Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) based on communication between vehicle and a Road Side Units (RSU) and Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) based on communication between vehicles are effectively combined in a new MAC architecture and V2I and V2V vehicles collaborate in management. As a result, many vehicles and RSU can use more efficiently the resource and send data rapidly. The simulation results show that the proposed method can achieve high resource utilization in accordance. Also we can find out the optimal transmission relay time and 2nd relay vehicle selection probability value to spread out V2V/V2I collaborative schedule message rapidly.

네트워크(Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks; VANET) 기술은 텔레매틱스/지능형 교통시스템을 구축하여 실시간 정보를 수집 및 공유하여 교통 체증 완화, 교통사고 예방뿐만 아니라, 차량 안에서 인포테인먼트(Infotainment) 서비스를 제공한다. 요구하는 서비스 증가로, 고정된 프레임 안에서 한정된 자원을 사용하는 기존의 기술은 효율적인 차량통신 서비스에 한계가 있다. 따라서 주변 상황에 따라 유연한 동작의 프로토콜 설계와 정보를 효율적으로 인식, 예측, 분배, 공유를 할 수 있도록 적응적인 설계가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 차량과 RSU(Road Side Units) 기반의 V2I(Vehicle to Infrastructure) 구조와 차량간 통신 V2V(Vehicle to Vehicle) 구조를 상호 결합하여 차량 통신에 할당된 자원을 보다 효율적으로 관리, 사용하기 위한 새로운 방법을 제안한다. 성능 평가를 통해 제안된 V2I/V2V 협력 스케줄 메시지 전송을 통해 높은 자원 이용률을 달성할 수 있음을 보였고, 제어정보를 넓은 범위로의 신속한 전송을 위한 최적 전송 기회 시간과 2차 릴레이 차량 전송 확률 값을 도출하였다.
