'Scenario-1: Vehicle in Platooning will Pass the Intersection', Experimental Analysis and Implementation

To reduce red light violations (RLVs) among connected vehicles (CVs) and enhance safety near traffic signal intersections, collaborative efforts involving universities, governments, and automakers have been made. Within the context of CVs, the concept of vehicles in platooning (ViP) has emerged. In ViP, a cluster of vehicles communicates with one another, sharing critical information such as speed and braking. This coordinated exchange allows them to maintain close spacing and relatively high speeds. However, ViP encounters a common challenge: the failure to promptly recognize the transition from yellow to red signals, leading to violations. Our research addresses Scenario-1: allowing electric vehicles in a platooning system to pass through an intersection during traffic signal changing from green to yellow. To achieve this, we employ Wi-Fi as the communication medium. Additionally, both the electric vehicles and the roadside unit (RSU) utilize myRIO to exchange crucial data on speed and time. Furthermore, our work delves into two specific RLVWs: RLVWY-ACC/DEAC and RLVWY-AVG-Speed. The experimental results confirm the system's efficacy, with average latencies of 0.200 seconds and 0.202 seconds in the respective cases, thus validating Wi-Fi as a suitable communication medium for RLVW applications.
