In this paper, we propose a suitable network topology for the Ethernet based Train Communication Network (TCN) for control system in a autonomous multi-articulated vehicle. We propose a network topology considering the structural constraints such as the number of cables and ports, and the performance constraints such as network response time and maximum throughput. We compare the network performances of star topology and daisy chain topology as well as hybrid topology, which is proposed in previous studies and a compromise between daisy chain and star topology. Here, the appropriate number of nodes in a group is obtained for the configuration of the hybrid topology. We first derive estimates of the network performance through simulation with different topologies, and then, implement the network by connecting the actual devices with each network topology. The performance of each topology is measured using various network performance measurement programs and the superiority of the proposed topology is described through comparison.

Interest in vehicle infotainment system, that provides both entertainment of driving and information for safe and convenient driving, has been recently increased. MOST is defined as the network transmitting high-bandwidth infortainment data to vehicle, and it has been standardized as MOST150. In this research, dynamic behavior method that deals with roles and functions of each devices connected to MOST150 Network, and Power Management Method was studied. MOST Network consists of a master device, including function block 'NetworkMaster', and all other devices called slave devices. The purpose of this study is to apply the analysis of the methods of operating and power management based on condition of master device and slave devices on MOST150 network to the future development of MOST150 devices.

For the safety messages in IEEE 802.11p vehicles network environment(WAVE), strict periodic beacon broadcasting requires status advertisement to assist the driver for safety. WAVE standards apply multiple radios and multiple channels to provide open public road safety services and improve the comfort and efficiency of driving. Although WAVE standards have been proposed multi-channel multi-radio, the standards neither consider the WAVE multi-radio environment nor its effect on the beacon broadcasting. Most of beacon broadcasting is designed to be delivered on only one physical device and one control channel by the WAVE standard. also conflict-free channel assignment of the fewest channels to a given set of radio nodes without causing collision is NP-hard, even with the knowledge of the network topology and all nodes have the same transmission radio. Based on the latest standard IEEE 802.11p and IEEE 1609.4, this paper proposes an interference aware-based channel assignment algorithm with Nash bargaining solution that minimizes interference and increases throughput with wireless mesh network, which is deigned for multi-radio multi-cahnnel structure of WAVE. The proposed algorithm is validated against numerical simulation results and results show that our proposed algorithm is improvements on 8 channels with 3 radios compared to Tabu and random channel allocation algorithm.

In order to realize Intelligent Transport System (ITS) without any road facilities support, Inter-vehicle Communication (IVC) is increased attention. IVC makes it possible to exchange real-time information among vehicles without centralized infrastructure. The IVC systems use multi-hop broadcast to disseminate information. In this paper, we propose the improved AODV routing protocol based on location information. The proposed AODV routing protocol transmits Hello packet with location information to calculate the distance between nodes. Then it achieves fast link recovery. We confirm the throughput performance of the proposed AODV routing protocol compared with the AODV routing protocol using Qualnet ver.3.8 simulator.

본 논문에서는 레일형 GB-SAR의 단점을 극복하고자 차량에 원형레일을 탑재하여 신속한 기동을 확보하고 합성구경의 길이를 늘리며 영상영역을 확장한 Arc-SAR의 설계안을 제시한다. 하드웨어 측면에서 살펴보면, 밴형 차량의 상부에 원형레일을 설치하고 마이크로파 송, 수신 안테나를 탑재한 후 레일 위를 1mm 이내의 정밀도로 이동시키며, 자료를 획득하게 된다. 이때 안테나에 연결된 동축 케이블은 차량 내부의 송, 수신장치에 연결되는데 RF대역에서 완벽히 작동하는 슬립링이 없기 때문에 내부 송, 수신 장치를 턴 테이블위에 장착하여 외부 안테나의 이동과 동일한 각도로 회전하여, 동축 케이블의 꼬임을 방지하게 된다. 송, 수신 장치의 구성은 벡터 네트워크 분석기를 기반으로 마이크로파 앰프, 마이크로파 스위치로 구성되며, 통합 제어 소프트웨어를 통해 외부 안테나의 이동과 함께 제어된다. 한편, Arc-SAR 영상의 구현은 원형레일을 따라 얻어지는 합성구경의 기하학적인 특수성을 감안하여 최초로 시도될 것이다. 이 시스템은 RTK-GPS를 장착하여 지반변형 모니터링 시 차량 이동 오차를 최소화 하고자 하며, 이외에 고정형 산란체를 이용하여 차량 이동 오차를 보정하고자 한다. 또한 AWS (Automatic Weather System)을 장착하여 위상의 대기보정을 동시에 수행할 것이다. 이 시스템은 차량 탑재에 의한 기동성의 확보로 침수나 침하 등 긴급 재난 지역에 즉각적인 대응이 가능하며, 대형 구조물의 주기적인 변형 모니터링 등에 활용성이 클 것이다.

Since message forgery or alteration in VANET may cause severe consequences, authentication of critical messages must be provided. However, using normal digital signature may infringe privacy of drivers. Therefore, VANET requires authentication systems that provide conditional anonymity. In this paper, we propose a new authentication system for VANET. In our proposed system, each vehicle can update its pseudonym using re-encryption technique and digitally sign messages using representation problem on the pseudonym. By limiting the usage period, revocation of individual pseudonym is not required. Moreover, we also provide a way to revoke the vehicle itself. Secureness of our system partially rely on the usage of tamper-resistance hardware.

차량용 인포테인먼트 네트워크인 MOST에서 네트워크 상태정보를 효율적으로 관리하는 것이 요구된다. 현재 효율적인 관리를 위한 도구로 MOST Radar, Optolyzer가 있으나, 많은 라이센스 비용이 들고, 국내에는 이와 같은 MOST 네트워크를 위한 소프트웨어가 존재하지 않는다. 그리고 국내 MOST 엔지니어에 요구에 맞는 툴이 필요한 실정이며, 좀 더 직관적으로 MOST 네트워크를 진단하고 상태를 파악할 수 있는 툴이 요구된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 MOST 네트워크의 상태정보를 효율적이며 직관적으로 표현할 수 있도록 MFC 2008을 이용하여 사용자 인터페이스를 설계하였다. 이러한 사용자 인터페이스를 통해 MOST 시스템 엔지니어가 보다 쉽게 MOST 네트워크 상태를 효율적으로 관리할 수 있다.

The Multihop Routing of vehicle communication environment is difficult to maintain due to heavy fluctuation of network topology and routing channel according to the movement of the vehicle, road property, vehicle distribution. We implemented GeoNetworking on the basis of ETSI(European Telecommunication Standard Institute) to maintain the vehicle safety service. GeoNetworking has its own way that delivers the data through the Unicast and Broadcast. In this paper, we compared performance index such as packet delivery ratio, end-to-end delay about GeoNetworking using the QualNet Network Simulator. Previous research assessed performance of GeoUnicast. This research has been additionally performed about GeoBroadcast, and we progressed algorithm performance through the comparison of CBF(Contention based Forwarding) of GeoUnicast with Greedy forwarding of GeoBroadcast.

VANET are a special kind of MANET adapted to the communications between vehicles. In this work, we propose the models used for representing the communication among vehicles, vehicles mobility features, and VANET simulator using realistic vehicular mobility models. VANET requires that a traffic and network simulator should be used together to perform this test. But, simulator tool has been preferred over traffic simulation because it simple, easy and cheap. Goal of this paper is to create a simulation of Vehicular Ad-Hoc network for urban scenario which can be used for testing purposes. Such environment can be used while designing better MAC protocols in VANETs. We are evaluating the performance of two routing protocols namely AODV and DSDV. The comparison was based on the throughout, packet loss and end-to-end delay. We found that DSDV has less throughput performance and high routing overhead than AODV. On average end-to-end delay and packet loss, AODV performs better than DSDV.

Intelligent vehicle plans motion and navigate itself based on the surrounding environment perception. Hence, the precise environment recognition is an essential part of self-driving vehicle. There exist many vulnerable road users (e.g. vehicle, pedestrians) on vehicular driving environment, the vehicle must percept all the dynamic obstacles accurately for safety. In this paper, we propose an multiple vehicle tracking algorithm using microwave radar. Our proposed system includes various special features. First, exceptional radar measurement model for vehicle, concentrated on the corner, is described by mixture density network (MDN), and applied to particle filter weighting. Also, to conquer the curse of dimensionality of particle filter and estimate the time-varying number of multi-target states, reversible jump markov chain monte carlo (RJMCMC) is used to sampling step of the proposed algorithm. The robustness of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated through several computer simulations.
