Title
On the Improvement of Vehicular Macroscopic Mobility Models
Abstract
Evaluating large scale vehicular networks solutions is a great challenge once real experiments are not feasible yet and there are no large scale testbeds available. Thus, the most used evaluation technique is simulation, which requires a realistic mobility model to provide accurate results. However, building large scale realistic vehicular mobility models is a hard task and many important characteristics have been neglected, like the origin-destination (O-D) macroscopic one. In this work it is proposed a trace-based O-D macroscopic model inferred by the adoption of statistical techniques in order to characterize a validated traffic model. This work contributes to the research community by providing a more realistic O-D macroscopic model, which can be considered a complement for many traffic generators available in literature.
