Impact on Traffic Flow. D4.6 of H2020 project ENSEMBLE
report
Connectivity is mission critical for platooning. This applies first and foremost for the low latency V2V communication between vehicles to engage, maintain and leave a platoon. There is a second category of communication which is equally important for platooning, the (often cellular) communication to a backend that provides the delineation and context for a platoon. In example under which conditions forming a platoon is allowed on that specific road segment. This link is vital for the efficient formation of platoons but can also enable numerous other services which help to make platooning viable and attractive. This deliverable describes the services and specifies their system architecture and the API for a platoon formation service. Generic issues and associated solutions are formulated. Cyber security requirements are also described in alignment with accepted standards. Finally, real world transportation data was used to verify possible platooning penetration. All tasks were theoretical work which pave the way for a future level playing field.
