USDOT Connected Vehicle Research Program: Vehicle-to-Vehicle Safety Application Research Plan

摘要

The connected-vehicle research program is a major initiative under USDOT's Connect Vehicle Research Program and includes both vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to-infrastructure research activities. The goal of the Vehicle-to-Vehicle Safety Application Research Plan is to describe the research needed to support this decision. The objectives of the research plan are to determine if vehicle-to-vehicle communication safety applications meet a safety need, are practicable technologically and economically, have objectively measurable compliance, have driver acceptance, and are effective. This research plan only reflects the V2V communication research portion of the connected-vehicles program. The research plan provides background, vision, goals and objects, and an overview, as well as a detailed roadmap and summary descriptions of the major research tracks that make up the V2V safety application research activities.
