Abstract

Wireless networks provide the possibility of vehicle tracking using information broadcast by vehicles in a local area. In vehicular safety networks, vehicles include their movement information in broadcast messages, allowing receivers of the messages to track them in real time and detect hazardous situations. There are many choices for sampling, communication and estimation of the movement data. In this paper, we look at four of the main choices that are currently used by industry and in research works. We also introduce a new heuristic estimation method based on our observation of data. To compare these methods, we use several datasets that are publicly available. The methods studied in this paper use either periodic beaconing or error-dependent sampling and communication method, and combine it with either constant-speed or constant-acceleration estimation methods. The results show that while a combination of error-dependent sampling and constant-acceleration estimation produces the best tracking results, it is possible to improve the performance by more realistic estimation methods. It is also observed that although different datasets produce similar results, the findings are more accurate for datasets of normal driving, compared to high dynamic situations.
