A vast array of technologies is being deployed to realize advanced automated driving. One of those is technology that enables automated vehicles to use information obtained via V2X communication to recognize objects that are beyond the scope of on-board sensors such as camera, radar, or other sensor. Given concerns over the impact on traffic flow as automated vehicles using only on-board sensors are predicted to stop or slowly move until they can determine it is safe to proceed, that technology can be expected to mitigate such impact.
The research and development presented here focused on core technologies that effectively collect vehicle, pedestrian and other object data obtained from multiple roadside infrastructure units serving as sources of dynamic information, integrate those pieces of object data to streamline the generation of dynamic information, and efficiently transmit the processed data. This project addressed proposing parameters to integrate the object data as well as the communication protocols and common interfaces to collect and transmit the dynamic information from multiple sources to automated vehicles.
