The doctoral research of Teleco student develops a model of vehicular networks, one of the fields of automotive future more
Google and major auto companies such as Renault, Mercedes or Audi, are already working to develop autonomous cars without driver.
Will be possible by vehicular networks, wireless communications between vehicles which is one of the last doctoral theses at the Polytechnic University of Cartagena (UPCT).
Investigating Carolina Garcia Costa, directed by Joan García Haro Esteban Egea and López, develops a mathematical model to evaluate the collision would be avoided by sending emergency messages after a traffic accident, other vehicles involved can see allowing them to react in time automatically.
The thesis entitled 'Development and evaluation of analytical models for applications and Cross-layer techniques in vehicular networks', part of that "the driver was slow to react" in the words of its author.
"Wireless communications between vehicles are the key to future intelligent systems to improve traffic control and transport information for drivers," he adds.
The model of vehicular networks developed by this thesis research group in Telematics Engineering allows to study the influence of different parameters of driving in the collision process, as the distance between vehicles, the speed at which time circulating or driver's reaction.
So it can be used as an evaluation tool for the development of cooperative systems to prevent accidents, such as automatic braking systems.
The result of this research, funded by the Seneca Foundation, have published two articles in journals of high impact and presented four papers at international conferences.
Carolina Garcia Cartagena, 28, has a degree and Masters in Mathematics and defended his thesis in the School of Telecommunication UPCT in the form of European Doctorate, entirely in English and in court with a member from the University College Dublin.
