Field tests of a dynamic green driving strategy based on inter-vehicle communication

This paper presents the design and results for field tests regarding the environmental benefits in stop-and-go traffic of an algorithmic green driving strategy based on inter-vehicle communication (IVC), which was proposed in Yang and Jin (2014). The green driving strategy dynamically calculates advisory speed limits for vehicles equipped with IVC devices so as to smooth their speed profiles and reduce their emissions and fuel consumption. For the field tests, we develop a smartphone-based IVC system, in which vehicles’ speeds and locations are collected by GPS and accelerometer sensors embedded in smartphones, and communications among vehicles are enabled by specially designed smartphone applications, a central server, and 4G cellular networks. Six field tests are carried out on an uninterrupted ring road under slow or fast stop-and-go traffic conditions. We compare the performances of three alternatives: no green driving, heuristic green driving, and the IVC-based algorithmic green driving. Results show that heuristic green driving has better smoothing and environmental effects than no green driving, but the IVC-based algorithmic green driving outperforms both. In the future, we are interested in field tests under more realistic traffic conditions.

基于LTE系统的轨道交通辅助定位方法

为保证城市轨道交通运营安全,针对车载控制器(VOBC)出现故障时,调度人员无法获悉列车位置的情况,利用列车接入单元(TAU)上传长期演进系统(LTE)的无线性能指标进行辅助定位。该系统平时进行车辆实际位置和无线性能指标的大数据拟合,在特殊情况时利用拟合曲线和无线性能指标进行辅助定位,为列车安全运行提供可靠的保障。     

中国港口功能的聚类和判别

根据中国港口的样本特征, 选取了11个主要功能指标, 建立了因子分析模型, 并进行了适用性检验。根据主成分分析法, 提取了3个待定因子, 经过因子旋转和归一化处理, 采用系统凝聚法对中国沿海24个港口的主要功能进行聚类分析。以MATLAB为技术基础, 对烟台港功能类型进行判别。分析结果表明: 根据经济功能因子、城市功能因子和物流功能因子的分类, 中国沿海24个港口可以聚成7类, 第1类为上海港, 第2类为深圳港, 第3类为广州港, 第4类为宁波舟山港, 第5类为青岛港、天津港、大连港, 第6类为厦门港、丹东港、威海港、汕头港、北海港、防城港、海口港、连云港港、营口港、秦皇岛港、日照港, 第7类为唐山港、温州港、台州港、福州港、泉州港、湛江港; 运用人工神经网络方法, 烟台港被判别为第7类。可见, 方法有效。

Connected cruise control: modelling,delay effects,and nonlinear behaviour

Connected vehicle systems (CVS) are considered in this paper where vehicles exchange information using wireless vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication. The concept of connected cruise control (CCC) is established that allows control design at the level of individual vehicles while exploiting V2V connectivity. Due to its high level of modularity the proposed design can be applied to large heterogeneous traffic systems. The dynamics of a simple CVS is analysed in detail while taking into account nonlinearities in the vehicle dynamics as well as in the controller. Time delays that arise due to intermittencies and packet drops in the communication channels are also incorporated. The results are summarised using stability charts which allow one to select control gains to maintain stability and ensure disturbance attenuation when the delay is below a critical value.
