2015-07-09 (14.00) : On cooperating automated vehicles for future intelligent transportation systems

At Euler building (A002)

Organized by Mathematical Engineering

Speaker : Henk Wymeersch (Chalmers University)
Abstract : For intelligent transportation systems (ITS) to achieve situational awareness beyond their sensing horizon and to harness coordination capabilities, some form of cooperation will be required. Such cooperation is enabled by vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure wireless communication. The integration between the communication, signal processing, and control sub-systems is non-trivial and requires a co-design, which in turn requires collaboration between these three disciplines. We will present a possible evolution of these three disciplines within the context of ITS, as well as several challenges and opportunities. The speaker will then briefly discuss the two following topics: (i) On the use of graphical models for receiver design in fiber optical communications (ii) On the fundamental trade-off between accuracy and delay in UWB positioning.
