Radio communication-based method for analysis of train driving in an ERTMS signaling environment

Abstract Background ERTMS is an important project improving cross-border interoperability throughout Europe by a single rail signaling standard. One advantage following this development is a standardized radio signaling, which can be tracke...

Spatiotemporal Speed Planning for Multi-Vehicle Cooperative Driving With Dynamic Following Relationships

In Autonomous Valet Parking scenarios, multiple vehicles operate cooperatively in low-speed environments where the leading-vehicle constraint may be dynamically reconstructed due to path transitions. Under such conditions, conventional spee...

Effects of drivers evasive behavior on the placement of automated enforcement equipment in highway systems

The placement of automated enforcement equipment on highways is a problem of interest for many roadway infrastructure entities and law enforcement agencies. It is common that in such cases the vehicles actively try to evade enforcement, bec...
