“…Collins and Muntean (2) proposed an optimal route calculation algorithm named TraffCon to offer information to connected vehicles, whereas Gupte and Younis (3) proposed a method to guide each vehicle along its optimal route by adaptively managing the traffic flow through communication with other vehicles. These two studies adopted methods to offer information regarding traffic congestion or optimal routing to drivers.…”

This paper reports on the energy saving effect of autonomous driving control at intersections. An intersection is defined as a point at which traffic lanes in several directions coexist. Intersections are prone to higher congestion and a higher incidence of traffic accidents because of heavy traffic. Therefore, the traffic flow at intersections is controlled by incidental equipment. On roads carrying a light amount of traffic, the flow is controlled by stop lines, whereas on roads carrying medium and heavy amounts of traffic, the traffic flow is controlled by traffic signals and overpasses, respectively. However, these incidental facilities are not always the most efficient way to control the traffic flow. These facilities would never be removed as long as vehicles are driven manually, and they would never be able to optimize traffic flow at an affordable cost. On the other hand, autonomous driving of vehicles would optimize the traffic flow by implementing vehicle-tovehicle or vehicle-to-infrastructure cooperation. Currently, there is a need for the quantitative evaluation of the impact of advanced vehicle control in support of global developments in vehicle automation. This prompted our study, which involves a quantitative evaluation of the energy saving effect of automatic driving control for passing though intersections, which we have developed. This paper first provides background information surrounding vehicle automation. Related work on automatic driving control for passing through intersections and on vehicle control for energy conservation is introduced, after which relating technological issues are clarified. Subsequently, a vehicular behavior model designed to evaluate the extent to which automatic driving control for passing through intersections is able to save energy, is specified. Finally, we report the results of a simulation evaluation using the vehicular behavior model. The experimental evaluation certifies that automatic driving control for passing through an intersection conserves more energy than traffic control signals.

Abstract-In this paper, we propose a two purpose structure that can do vehicle navigating and packet routing simultaneously in an efficient way. The algorithm suggests the shortest travel time path to the drivers and finds reliable routes for traffic information messages. In order to reduce traveling time, vehicles are directed to the paths with lower car congestion. Because such paths have a higher risk of radio coverage partitioning, it is more desired to disseminate traffic information packets from routes that have more probability of radio connectivity, to increase successful ratio on delivering messages. For this purposes, it is necessary to assess vehicles distribution on city roads periodically to evaluate real-time car congestion and radio connectivity of roads. The peer-to-peer layer is constructed in a fast and simple way, without any overhead or extra message exchanging between nodes. The system can optimally save the limited bandwidth of vehicular network as well as reducing the travel time of vehicles. Due to completely cooperative characteristic of this system, there is no need to install any infrastructure at road network.

“…The aim of the TraffCon system presented in [28] is to provide vehicles with driving directions (instead of keeping drivers better informed about traffic conditions as is the case for other systems). Its goal is to globally optimise the usage of the road network and avoid flash crowd driving patterns.…”

This paper summarises the research on cooperative traffic information systems based on vehicular ad hoc networks. Such systems are a promising concept for exchanging traffic information among vehicles. Their application enables reductions in fuel consumption, greenhouse gas emissions and travel time. Three classes of such systems are studied: infrastructureless solutions based on inter-vehicle communication, infrastructure-based solutions relying on the peer-to-peer paradigm and infrastructure-based systems using client-server architectures. Systems within each class are briefly introduced and their strengths and weaknesses are analysed.Index Terms-Cooperative traffic information systems; vehicular ad hoc networks; intelligent transportation systems.
