A collaborative multi-agent message transmission mechanism in intelligent transportation system  A smart freeway example
Although drivers obtain road information through radio broadcasting or specific in-car equipment, there is still a wide gap between the synchronization of information and the actual conditions on the road. In the absence of adequate information, drivers often react to conditions with inefficient behaviors that do not contribute to their own driving goals, but increase traffic complication. Therefore, this study applies the features of information exchanged between Multi-Agents and mutual communication and collaboration mechanisms to intelligent transportation systems (ITS). If drivers could achieve distributed communication, share their driving information, and submit their own reasoned driving advice to others, many traffic situations will improve effectively. Additionally, the efficiency of the computing processes could have improved through distributed communication. At the same time, this paper proposes an architecture design, including vehicle components, OBU (On-Board Unit) devices and roadside device components (Roadside Unit) with hybrid architecture, which is intended to establish intelligent diversified road services to provide information support and applications.
