Due to the development of ITS technology, various services related to transportation under vehicular environments have been provided. Especially, as wireless communication technology, WAVE has been established as a standard for vehicle-to-vehicle communications. WAVE has fast connection and excellent mobility characteristics. A VSC-A project is conducting by global automotive OEMs in USDOT. This project introduces the advanced safety services with vehicle-to-vehicle communications. In this paper, we presented the scenario of a do not pass warning service, which prevents an accident during overtaking activity by using vehicle-to-vehicle communications. In addition, we analyzed network performance under WAVE. In conclusion, we introduced the simulation results. Finally, we summarized the communication range and delay values for consideration factors for a overtaking model.

Modern roundabouts referred to as relatively safer and more efficient traffic facility than the signalized intersections have been recently deployed and operated and accordingly more research efforts to improve its safety and efficiency have been made so far. This paper introduces a new traffic information system named as Smart Roundabout coupled with Connected Vehicle technique like Vehicle-to-Roadside communication, which has not been attempted before and evaluates its performance with a microscopic simulation model, VISSIM. The proposed system functions to collect driving information of circulating vehicles in the roundabout such as location, speed, critical headway, etc. and help approaching vehicles decide whether to enter the roundabout with an on-board equipment instrumented in the individual vehicle on the basis of calculated gap acceptance of interest. This new system is expected to secure more safety and increase the capacity of the modern roundabout.

It is necessary to establish a system suitable for the driving vehicle so that it can effectively search for and modify various data anywhere and anytime by effectively linking communication with the computer system in the running vehicle and to control the equipment properly for smooth operation on a limited platform do. Also, vehicle CAN communication is used to extract system engine information, and data is transmitted using ZigBee for this information transmission. Therefore, OBD-II protocol, which is provided by the vehicle itself, is used for vehicle CAN to obtain vehicle status information and exhaust gas using various sensor information of the vehicle and O2 sensor value, and transmits it to the ZigBee main control system. In this study, we implemented a system that can reduce the battery load damage to the maximum by reducing the power consumption to the maximum, and to monitor the internal state of the vehicle through ZigBee communication with the embedded system for low power vehicles.

Vehicle to Infrastructure(V2I) communication means the technology between the vehicle and the roadside unit to provide the Intelligent Transportation Systems(ITS) and Telematic services. The vehicle collects information about the probe data through the evolved Node B(eNodeB) and after that eNodeB provides road conditions or traffic information to the vehicle. To provide these V2I communication services, we need a link adaptation technology that enables reliable and higher transmission rate. The receiver transmits the estimated Channel State Information(CSI) to transmitter, which uses this information to enable the link adaptation. However, due to the rapid channel variation caused by vehicle speed and the processing delay between the layers, the estimated CSI quickly becomes outdated. For this reason, channel interpolation and prediction scheme are needed to achieve link adaptation in V2I communication system. We propose the Advanced Discrete Prolate Spheroidal Sequence(ADPSS) channel interpolation and prediction scheme. The proposed scheme creates an orthonomal basis, and uses a correlation matrix to interpolate and predict channel. Also, smoothing is applied to frequency domain for noise removal. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme outperforms conventional schemes with the high speed and low speed vehicle in the freeway and urban environment.

A neural fuzzy control strategy, developed in order to make a Mobile Vehicle(MV) run along with the traffic guidelines on the road, is presented. A neurocomputer is used in the control procedure and it learnt the driving knowledge to control the MV's actions. The image information of the guidelines is provided by a CCD camera on the top of the MV. The MV utilize the image information to identify the shape of the road and to decide the position of itself, and control the running actions. A fuzzy controller works on-line. Both of the neural controller and the fuzzy controller make up each other. This control method solve the problem of mechanical and electrical inertia and make the Mobile Vehicle run rapidly and smoothly.

Side collisions (or side crash) account for 51.6% of all car to car accidents occurred in 2010. It is necessary to analyze those vehicles' structure deformation and passengers' injuries in the side collisions. A moving barrier (950kg) is currently used in the KNCAP side impact test. However, in order to enhance a passengers' safety in the side collisions, we introduce an AE-MDB (1500kg) which provides more severe conditions for this test. In this study, the test results using both barriers are compared and analyzed.

In this paper, a novel turn signal indication scheme is proposed and implemented to handle the turn signal of a vehicle automatically. By adopting accelerometer for the motion recognition of vehicle's momentum, the proposed way could control and manage turn signals according to the moving direction of a car when a driver forgot handling turn signal lever. The designed control system is plugged into the motorbike and tested to demonstrate improved driver's safety suitable for ADAS.

In constructing the positioning system based on a conventional dead-reckoning for a wheeled vehicle with pneumatic tires, the position estimation error is inevitable as changes of the radius of the wheels depend on live load and variable enviroment. Therefore, this paper proposes the positioning system which can estimate the error source i.e. the vehicle parameter errors, such as the right and left wheel radius error, using gyroscope and ultrasonic sensor and correct the parameter to reduce the dead-reckoned position estimation error. The extended Kalman filter was used as a method for the multisensor data fusion. The simulation to verify the effectiveness of the proposed positioning system is performed.

In order to predict vibration trends occurred during vehicle drive, acceleration data was processed by using data processing algorithm with moving average and Hilbert transform. Specific mode constants of acceleration were obtained under various disturbance. Vehicle velocity, road condition, property of pointing structure were considered as factors which make change of vibration trend in vehicle dynamics. Results of signal processing were compared and analysed. Advanced performance of the timing selection algorithm from this study was verified by using simple equipment comparing with the deflection measurement laser system(Muzzle Reference System).

Reliability program is essential to the development of space systems like launch vehicles and satellites, as they are non-repairable after launch and the failure of a launch vehicle resulted in catastrophic consequences for the mission. Foreign advanced space organizations have developed and implemented their own reliability management programs for launch vehicles from the conceptual design stage to the detail processes for the individual components, procedures and test reports. A study on the launch failures and the reliability analysis methods for one-shot devices contained in this paper will contribute to the reliability improvement for Korean launch vehicle and components.
