Title
Vertical Handover Network Selection Architecture For Vlc Vehicular Platoon Driving Assistance
Abstract
Vehicle platooning systems improve road active safety while relying on connected vehicles and exchanging critical safety messages. This paper investigates the applicability of visible light communications (VLC) technology among platoon members. An exact mathematical modelling of a VLC platoon system, perturbed by neighbouring vehicles, is conducted to derive computations of quality of service (QoS) parameters. Based on our analytical model, we retrieve the threshold of VLC performance degradation that triggers switching to a radio frequency technology. Selecting suitable RF technology is done using a sigmoid utility function. Performance results show that the implemented vertical handover enables to reduce packet loss and improve QoS parameters.
