 Each second in the trace results in a connectivity graph  Two vehicles separated by less than R meters are considered connected (this does not imply a unit disk graph radio propagation model)  This allows the detection of important properties: assortative network

Impact of geographical area

 The gain depends on the vehicular density, so it is not evenly distributed  Some areas present a limited gain throughout the entire day, while a 95% gain can be achieved at peak hours in the central region

Looking for practical solutions

 Centralized MDS already NP-hard  Many distributed algorithms proposed for backbone construction in wireless sensor networks  Trade-off between the quality of the MDS approximation and the amount of needed communication  Best algorithms find a dominating set after multiple communication rounds (a different message can be exchanged with each neighbor during a round)  Convergence time too long for a dynamic vehicular network

Degree-based mechanism

11 Offloading Floating Car Data 30.05.2013

 Every vehicle recovers the useful FCD from its neighbors through regular V2V beaconing (already standardized, transmitted on the control channel)  A vehicle uses the cellular uplink with probability

parameter of the mechanism node degree

 DB does not recover FCD from all the vehicles  Ratio of uncovered nodes:

probability that a node has degree d

k=1 k=2

 With k=1, we obtain the same gain as for the MDS, but only 70% of vehicles are covered  With k=2, 90% of the vehicles are covered, but the offloading gain decreases

13 Offloading Floating Car Data 30.05.2013

 A simple confirmation mechanism for 100% coverage: a node that uses the cellular uplink announces this to its neighbors  Nodes uncovered at the end of a collection period transmit FCD on the cellular uplink  Maps to a cost optimization problem:

nodes with less than k neighbors always transmit nodes transmitting at the end of the collection period nodes relaying FCD for their neighbors

 The optimal k value varies, but the differences between the gain obtained with an optimal k and a fixed k=2 are minimal  A 20% difference compared with the optimal gain can be noticed at peak hours

Reservation-based mechanism

15 Offloading Floating Car Data 30.05.2013

 Try to improve the performance of DB-C, while keeping 100% coverage  Reservation period at the beginning of every collection period  Each vehicle randomly chooses a slot to transmit a reservation message  All the vehicles receiving a reservation message cancel their back-off  In the ideal scenario the RB mechanism reaches the same solution as a centralized MDS heuristic  In reality: limited number of slots, message collision, radio propagation problems

Conclusion

 Floating Car Data is becoming an important challenge for operators, providers and users  We show that using V2V communication to offload FCD can bring important benefits  Three simple mechanism are discussed, and their performance indicates that FCD offloading is feasible in practice  Still a lot of work to do: penetration ratio, actual gain on the cellular network, actual gain for service providers, different offloading mechanisms…
