Abstract:
Vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communications is a concept that has been around for the past decade. It involves communication between vehicles and other types of infrastructure. This application is exceptionally useful for emergency services such as ambulances, fire trucks etc. This is because an emergency vehicle can communicate with the traffic light infrastructure and make it give the green signal thereby allowing vehicle to pass quickly. This is useful because it alerts other cars and pedestrians on the road when an emergency vehicle is present. In this paper, a V2X communications system in an urban setting will be simulated using MATLAB and the Automated Driving Toolbox. The purpose of simulation in MATLAB is to test if vehicle to vehicle communication is affected by buildings and other infrastructure. The first Simulation is constructed using the Automated driving simulator. In this simulation clover highway is constructed and cars are added to mimic a busy highway. The second simulation involves several nodes being programmed in MATLAB and intersecting at various points to simulate an overpass highway. The end goal of this project to successfully simulate a V2X communications system with additional components added within the program to represent additional cars and infrastructure.
