Download or read book Research Study on Inter vehicle Communication Implementation in Malaysia written by Mohd Fakhrul Anwar Alias and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) communications systems have recently drawn great attention, because they have the potential to improve convenience and safety of car traffic. Road accidents take the life of many people in the world each year, and much more people have been injuring and maiming. Statistical studies show that accidents could be avoid by 60% if drivers were informed only half a second before the accident. The objective of this report is to make an analysis of the possibility of implementing this technology in Malaysia. This research study is as guidance to develop a concept of V2V system. Applications with early deadlines are expected to require direct V2V communications, and the only standard currently supporting this is the IEEE 802.11p, included in the wireless access in vehicular environment (WAVE). The combination of WAVE and GPS is a good idea to forming collision avoidance system. The GPS system determines the location of vehicles and the WAVE system forming an ad- hoc peer-to-peer networking among the vehicles.V2V communication enable vehicle to communicate with their neighbouring vehicles even in the absence of a central base station to provide a safer and more efficient roads and to increase passenger safety. This technology can be implements in Malaysia but in order to do it some changing had to be made first to ensure the effectiveness of the technology. V2V communication should have a Doppler sensor as a device sensor that can integrates with cruise control to form adaptive cruise control. Other than that, it also need WAVE to assure a reliable communication system between vehicles. The GPS system is needs to determine exact location of car that can be use in roadways environment such as overtaking situation.

Book Properties  Simulation  and Applications of Inter vehicle Communication Systems

Download or read book Properties Simulation and Applications of Inter vehicle Communication Systems written by Hao Yang and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The growth of urban vehicle traffic generates serious transportation and environmental problems in most countries of the world. Intelligent transportation systems (ITS) are effective means to solve basic traffic problems, such as driving safety, road congestion, disaster supplies, emissions, etc. Inter-vehicle communication (IVC) system is one of the most important components of ITS. In recent years, the rapid development of information technologies leads a revolution in IVC, enabling IVC be a powerful multifunctional system. However, there exist numerous challenges for ITS studies. This dissertation is aimed to address three urgent and critical issues in IVC: efficiency of information exchanging among connected vehicles, simulation methods, and IVC applications. Information transmission efficiency, which can be measured by communication throughput or capacity, is a fundamental property of vehicular ad hoc networks. This dissertation theoretically analyzes communication throughputs, including broadcast and unicast communications, under discrete and continuous vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs). We also examine influence of transmission range, interference ratio, market penetration rate of IVC-equipped vehicles, percentage of senders, and traffic waves on throughputs. Furthermore, we derive a theoretical formulation to calculate communication capacities under uniform traffic streams. And, an integer programming (IP) model is improved to explore capacities in general traffic, and a genetic algorithm is constructed to search the solutions efficiently. The second contribution of this dissertation is the development of a hybrid traffic simulation model to evaluate transportation systems incorporated with IVC technologies. As IVC-equipped vehicles are able to obtain more road information and they are controlled to pursue some objectives, they will behave differently from others, and transportation systems will become heterogeneous. This dissertation presents a hybrid traffic simulation model coupling microscopic and macroscopic models to address heterogeneity in transportation systems. In the model, equipped vehicles are regulated by a car-following model, while the other vehicles are described as continuous media with the Lighthill-Whitham-Richard (LWR) model. We analytically study the model on a single-lane road using a modified Godunov method. The hybrid model shows its potential of accurate wave propagation from individual vehicles to continuous traffic streams, and reversely; i.e., the model is capable of analyzing heterogeneous traffic. Moreover, consistency, stability and convergence of the hybrid model are carefully investigated. The model also shows the advancement of computational efficiency and control flexibility on traffic simulations. Finally, for IVC applications in environment, we propose a green driving strategy to smooth traffic flow and lower pollutant emissions and fuel consumption. In this dissertation, we study constant and dynamic green driving strategies based on inter-vehicle communications. Generally, speed limit control in successful strategies guarantee a vehicle's speed profile be smooth while still following its leader during a relative long time period. A theoretical analysis of constant strategies demonstrates that optimal smoothing effects can be achieved when a speed limit is set to be close to but not smaller than average speed of traffic. We consider a dynamic strategy in which controlled vehicles share location and speed information based on a feedback control system. The influence of market penetration rate of equipped vehicles and communication delay on the strategy is also analyzed. Besides the development of the green driving strategy, we construct a green driving APP for smartphones on the Google Android platform and design a field experiment to check the feasibility of the strategy. The results are promising and support the advancements of IVC on reducing emissions and fuel consumption.

This book was released on 2022-10-28 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are at the beginning of the next major disruptive cycle caused by computing. In transportation, the term Autonomous, Connected, Electric, and Shared (ACES) has been coined to represent the enormous innovations enabled by underlying electronics technology. The benefits of ACES vehicles range from improved safety, reduced congestion, and lower stress for car occupants to social inclusion, lower emissions, and better road utilization due to optimal integration of private and public transport. ACES is creating a new automotive and industrial ecosystem that will disrupt not only the technical development of transportation but also the management and supply chain of the industry. Disruptions caused by ACES are prompted by not only technology but also by a shift from a traditional to a software-based mindset, embodied by the arrival of a new generation of automotive industry workforce. In Autonomous, Connected, Electric and Shared Vehicles: Disrupting the Automotive and Mobility Sectors, Umar Zakir Abdul Hamid provides an overview of ACES technology for cross-disciplinary audiences, including researchers, academics, and automotive professionals. Hamid bridges the gap among the book’s varied audiences, exploring the development and deployment of ACES vehicles and the disruptions, challenges, and potential benefits of this new technology. Topics covered include: • Recent trends and progress stimulating ACES growth and development • ACES vehicle overview • Automotive and mobility industry disruptions caused by ACES • Challenges of ACES implementation • Potential benefits of the ACES ecosystem While market introduction of ACES vehicles that are fully automated and capable of unsupervised driving in an unstructured environment is still a long-term goal, the future of mobility will be ACES, and the transportation industry must prepare for this transition. Autonomous, Connected, Electric and Shared Vehicles is a necessary resource for anyone interested in the successful and reliable implementation of ACES. “ACES are destined to be a game changers on the roads, altering the face of mobility.” Daniel Watzenig, Professor Graz University of Technology, Austria

Book Implementation Research in Health

Download or read book Implementation Research in Health written by David H. Peters and published by World Health Organization. This book was released on 2013 with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interest in implementation research is growing, largely in recognition of the contribution it can make to maximizing the beneficial impact of health interventions. As a relatively new and, until recently, rather neglected field within the health sector, implementation research is something of an unknown quantity for many. There is therefore a need for greater clarity about what exactly implementation research is, and what it can offer. This Guide is designed to provide that clarity. Intended to support those conducting implementation research, those with responsibility for implementing programs, and those who have an interest in both, the Guide provides an introduction to basic implementation research concepts and language, briefly outlines what it involves, and describes the many opportunities that it presents. The main aim of the Guide is to boost implementation research capacity as well as demand for implementation research that is aligned with need, and that is of particular relevance to health systems in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Research on implementation requires the engagement of diverse stakeholders and multiple disciplines in order to address the complex implementation challenges they face. For this reason, the Guide is intended for a variety of actors who contribute to and/or are impacted by implementation research. This includes the decision-makers responsible for designing policies and managing programs whose decisions shape implementation and scale-up processes, as well as the practitioners and front-line workers who ultimately implement these decisions along with researchers from different disciplines who bring expertise in systematically collecting and analyzing information to inform implementation questions. The opening chapters (1-4) make the case for why implementation research is important to decision-making. They offer a workable definition of implementation research and illustrate the relevance of research to problems that are often considered to be simply administrative and provide examples of how such problems can be framed as implementation research questions. The early chapters also deal with the conduct of implementation research, emphasizing the importance of collaboration and discussing the role of implementers in the planning and designing of studies, the collection and analysis of data, as well as in the dissemination and use of results. The second half of the Guide (5-7) detail the various methods and study designs that can be used to carry out implementation research, and, using examples, illustrates the application of quantitative, qualitative, and mixed-method designs to answer complex questions related to implementation and scale-up. It offers guidance on conceptualizing an implementation research study from the identification of the problem, development of research questions, identification of implementation outcomes and variables, as well as the selection of the study design and methods while also addressing important questions of rigor.
