Survey and Classification of Cooperative Automated Driver Assistance Systems

Abstract

The introduction of dedicated short-range Vehicle- to-Vehicle communication (DSRC) enables the next step in advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) - the cooperative automated driver assistance systems (CoDAS). Combined with automated functions and even autonomous driving, a host of novel functions become feasible. Some of these - such as platooning- have been in research for decades, while others are not tackled yet. In this paper we give an overview on research on automated cooperative functions, survey conceivable functions and present a way to classify them.
