Prototyping telematic services in a wireless vehicular mesh network environment

摘要

Next generation telematic services are expected to play a key role in future automotive applications. In order to achieve strong integration between the services and the underlying network infrastructure there is a need for both simulation and emulation of the entire system. This paper presents a combined simulation and emulation approach for telematic services prototyping in an emulated wireless vehicular mesh networking environment. The ns-3 wireless mesh model, SUMO vehicular mobility model and different telematic services are integrated to demonstrate high scalability and flexibility of the proposed approach.
