LTE4V2X — Collection, dissemination and multi-hop forwarding
Résumé
In a recent work [1], we proposed LTE4V2X, a novel framework for a centralized vehicular network organization based on 4G LTE network. We demonstrated the efficiency of our framework for an FCD (Floating Car Data) application. Such applications are based on data collected from vehicles (localization, speed, direction, etc.) in order to feed a traffic management server. In the continuity of this work, this new paper presents two extensions of LTE4V2X. The first one is the multi-hop extension, which uses multi-hop communications to deal with areas where there is no LTE coverage (e.g. tunnels). The second extension deals with the adaptation of LTE4V2X framework for a dissemination application that aims to disseminate a specific message in a given geographical area. We analyze the performances of LTE4V2X using NS-3 simulation environment and a realistic highway mobility model. The results show that the multi-hop extension leads to an improvement of LTE4V2X performances, for applications based on both data collection and data dissemination.
