项目摘要

Vehicle-to-everything communication is a transformational emerging technology that is poised to enhance transportation safety and traffic management, thereby saving lives and yielding major economic gains by alleviating traffic congestion. This technology will enable vehicles to communicate with each other, as well as with traffic signals, road side units, bikes, wheelchairs, and pedestrians to augment situational awareness of all these constituents about road conditions. This project seeks to facilitate the deployment of the vehicle-to-everything communication technology by providing tools to model, design, optimize and secure its integral components, through a cross-disciplinary research effort. The research entails developing novel and computationally tractable mathematical models for (1) characterizing message propagation between the diverse road constituents; (2) jointly optimizing transportation and communication objectives; and (3) thwarting security threats. The educational plan involves fostering a workforce equipped with cross-domain knowledge in transportation engineering and management, electrical engineering, and cyber-security. The project also includes outreach to decision makers in transportation authorities and programs aimed at broadening the representation of under-represented minorities in the science and engineering field, particularly women.Vehicle-to-everything communication intertwines the wireless communications and transportation infrastructures. This creates cross-dependencies between the infrastructures that both raise unique challenges and offer new opportunities which the project addresses through fundamental contributions. Specifically, the project seeks to establish a science of vehicular epidemiology, which combines, draws from and contributes to the epidemiology, optimal control, game theory, and vehicular and wireless communication domains. Towards that end, the project aims to advance theoretical methods, including clustered epidemiological differential equations, optimal control based on Pontryagin's Maximum Principle, and dynamic games over epidemiological formulations, all of which are innovative in the vehicle-to-everything communication context. The project further includes data-driven verification of the theoretical findings, including computation and simulation software that will be shared with the broader research community.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

车联网通信是一项变革性的新兴技术，有望加强交通安全和交通管理，从而拯救生命，并通过缓解交通拥堵带来重大经济收益。该技术将使车辆能够相互通信，以及与交通信号，路边单元，自行车，轮椅和行人进行通信，以增强所有这些组成部分对道路状况的态势感知。该项目旨在通过跨学科的研究工作，通过提供建模，设计，优化和保护其整体组件的工具，促进车联网通信技术的部署。该研究需要开发新的和计算上易于处理的数学模型，用于（1）表征不同道路组成部分之间的信息传播;（2）联合优化交通和通信目标;（3）挫败安全威胁。该教育计划涉及培养一支具备交通工程和管理、电气工程和网络安全等跨领域知识的劳动力。该项目还包括与交通部门决策者的外联活动，以及旨在扩大科学和工程领域代表性不足的少数群体（特别是妇女）代表性的方案。车联网通信将无线通信和交通基础设施交织在一起。这在基础设施之间产生了交叉依赖性，这既提出了独特的挑战，也提供了新的机会，项目通过基本的贡献来解决这些问题。具体而言，该项目旨在建立一个科学的车辆流行病学，结合，借鉴和有助于流行病学，最优控制，博弈论，车辆和无线通信领域。为此，该项目旨在推进理论方法，包括群集流行病学微分方程，基于庞特里亚金最大值原理的最佳控制，以及流行病学公式的动态游戏，所有这些都是车辆对一切通信环境的创新。该项目还包括对理论发现的数据驱动验证，包括将与更广泛的研究社区共享的计算和模拟软件。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估来支持。
