Vehicles to Pedestrians Signal Transmissions Based on Cloud Computing

摘要

Collisions between vehicles and pedestrians usually result in the fatality to the vulnerable road users (VRUs). Thus, new technologies are needed to be developed for protecting the VRUs. Based on the high density of pedestrians and limited computing capability of base stations, in this paper the cloud computing technologies are adopted to handle the huge amounts of safety-critical messages. Moreover, the wireless multi-hop backhaul technology is adopted to overcome the bottlenecks of limited transmission capability and queueing delay of the transmitted safety-critical messages between base stations and clouds. Based on the multi-hop wireless transmission scheme, the signal transmission success probability and delay between pedestrians and clouds are derived for performance analysis. Furthermore, numerical simulations are performed to illustrate the relationship between the transmission success probability and the received signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) threshold.
