随着自动驾驶汽车逐步普及,通过碰撞规避和减少附带损伤来提升道路安全变得至关重要。车联网(V2X)技术,包括车对车(V2V)、车对基础设施(V2I)和车对云(V2C),被提出作为实现这一目标的手段。基于仿真的测试对于早期评估联网自动驾驶车辆(CAV)控制系统至关重要,相比真实世界测试更安全且成本更低。然而,在大规模3D环境中模拟大量具有复杂单体及多车传感器与控制器的场景,计算开销巨大。目前尚无有效框架能评估涉及大量自动驾驶车辆的真实场景。我们提出eCAV——一个高效、模块化且可扩展的评估平台,用于功能验证提高道路安全的算法方法,并预测不同V2X技术(包括未来的车对边缘控制平面)的性能。eCAV可在无感知能力的情况下模拟最多256辆车辆独立运行控制算法,比现有最先进方案高出8倍。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
As autonomous vehicles edge closer to widespread adoption, enhancing road safety through collision avoidance and minimization of collateral damage becomes imperative. Vehicle-to-everything (V2X) technologies, which include vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V), vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I), and vehicle-to-cloud (V2C), are being proposed as mechanisms to achieve this safety improvement. Simulation-based testing is crucial for early-stage evaluation of Connected Autonomous Vehicle (CAV) control systems, offering a safer and more cost-effective alternative to real-world tests. However, simulating large 3D environments with many complex single- and multi-vehicle sensors and controllers is computationally intensive. There is currently no evaluation framework that can effectively evaluate realistic scenarios involving large numbers of autonomous vehicles. We propose eCAV -- an efficient, modular, and scalable evaluation platform to facilitate both functional validation of algorithmic approaches to increasing road safety, as well as performance prediction of algorithms of various V2X technologies, including a futuristic Vehicle-to-Edge control plane and correspondingly designed control algorithms. eCAV can model up to 256 vehicles running individual control algorithms without perception enabled, which is $8\times$ more vehicles than what is possible with state-of-the-art alternatives.
