A Note on the Causes Degrading Communication between RSUs and Vehicles in Overloaded Conditions

Published: 13 November 2016 Publication History

Abstract

Roadside units (RSUs) are a key component of future Intelligent Transportation Systems. Because of the limited capacity of RSUs, and the short lifespan of the connections initiated by passing-by vehicles, the communication resource should be used with care. In particular, unless there are some form of cooperation between RSUs or vehicles, a vehicle should start transferring its data only if the entire trans- fer will be complete by the time the vehicle leaves the signal range. Otherwise, not only is it useless, but it actually becomes a nuisance to the other data transfers. In this paper, we propose a simple high-level modeling to study performance degradation affecting data transfers within an RSU signal range in overloaded conditions. Using a couple of scenarios, we show that the success rate of data transfers tend to be larger when the number of simultaneous transfers is capped at a given value, even though it comes at the expense of an immediate blocking for some transfers.
