V2X Communication Test Tool for Scenario-Based Assessment of Truck Platooning

conference paper
The EU-funded ENSEMBLE project* designs, realizes, tests and validates novel multi-brand platooning technology for trucks in a consortium consisting of all European truck OEMs, first-tier suppliers, branch organisations and academic and research institutes. This paper describes the project’s approach towards (intermediate) testing of the V2X communications, specifically focusing at Hardware-in-the-Loop (HiL) testing through the use of a custom V2X Test Tool developed in ENSEMBLE. The tool enables scenario-based assessment of truck platooning with the newly defined platooning protocol and (pre-standard) V2V messages. Next to V2V message conformance testing, it offers V2X communication functional testing and performance testing capabilities for different platooning scenarios. The V2X Test Tool is used for verification and validation of platooning solutions, and facilitates the next steps of testing truck platooning at proving grounds and in real-life environments.
