V2X Communications for Platooning: Sensor Inaccuracy Aspects

Platooning is a future approach to autonomous driving in which vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure communications play an important role. Tests performed in the past showed that a significant reduction in fuel consumption is possible when cars are traveling in a dense platoon formation. To increase the level of their awareness of the surrounding objects and to maintain a very short distance to the preceding vehicle, highly reliable on-board sensors are required. This paper discusses the impact of sensor inaccuracy on the performance and behavior of and autonomous vehicle platoon that makes use of wireless communications supported by context information from various databases and maps.
