dc.titleFog based cooperative autonomous drivingen_US
dcterms.abstractRecently, autonomous vehicles have become the focus of research [1-5]. Self-driving cars are equipped with various sensors to detect the surrounding environment, such as lidar, cameras, etc. In terms of transportation, autonomous driving shows excellent performance in uncertain environments, and route planning can be performed without manual intervention. The navigation system is designed to effectively and safely drive the car from the starting point to the desired destination [5,19]. In particular, autonomous systems can process and analyze the data obtained from sensors for map exploration and navigation [2,4]. Besides, the information exchange between self-driving cars is the key to better perception and detection of collaborative systems, rather than letting each car drive independently [2,5,18,20]. With the development of technology, there will be more and more autonomous vehicles on the road. If all cars use the same cloud server for data processing, a lot of redundant data will be generated, which will seriously affect the real-time and Efficiency requirements. Fog computing provides local users with timely real-time transportation services through close-range data processing, rather than routing data to a remote central data center in the cloud. More importantly, fog computing will revolutionize autonomous driving (AD). This research establishes an automatic driving system based on fog calculation, which simulates multiple vehicles driving in the same area, various vehicles simultaneously explore road information and cooperate in map building, and conduct formation driving, which significantly improves the efficiency of composition. At the same time, the amount of data sent by the processing node to the vehicle is reduced, and the efficiency and real-time performance of autonomous driving are improved. In this article, ROS is used as the platform for our autonomous driving system. The essence of the system is the publication and subscription of topics. Through the establishment of multiple fog computing nodes to process vehicle data and data exchange between close robots. Robots and nodes only need to publish topics to send data, and subscribe to topics to receive data. The network function of ROS can quickly establish the autonomous driving system network required for this research. Finally, in our experiment, multiple vehicles can exchange map information with each other through fog computing nodes, and the entire system can be operated in a low-latency state.en_US
