Abstract
Platooning of vehicles is an efficient traffic management model that improves traffic flow and fuel consumption. Especially, it is necessary to reduce computational load and networking overhead in automated connected vehicle systems. Because it is important to maintain the size of the platoon group appropriately for efficient platoon operation, this study proposed a dynamic grouping scheme for platooning in an automated vehicle system. The proposed scheme is analyzed by a mathematical model based on Markov chain. From the performance evaluation, it was confirmed that the proposed scheme appropriately controls the size of the platoon group.
