Abstract

In recent years, research concerning autonomous driving has gained momentum to enhance road safety and traffic efficiency. Relevant concepts are being applied to the fields of perception, planning, and control of automated vehicles, to leverage the advantages offered by vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication technology. The emergence of V2X communications increases the level of certainty regarding a vehicle’s surroundings and serves as an enabler for autonomous driving. V2X is essential for safe and efficient autonomous driving. Therefore, we need to study the performance of V2X communications to better perform its integration in future autonomous vehicles. In this paper, we describe a testbed V2X infrastructure with components to test the real effectiveness of V2X for autonomous driving using dedicated short-range communications (DSRC) technology. We present our developed intelligent transportation system (ITS) applications, and then, we show their integration within the autonomous vehicle on the one hand and within the infrastructure module on the other hand. Finally, to show the efficiency of this development, we conduct several real-world tests on an end-to-end communication architecture.
