Information exchange in a vehicular network between autonomous vehicles and the roadside infrastructure is important for improving road safety. These autonomous vehicles, equipped with a sensor suite, are capable of obtaining road map data that can be used to inform other vehicles and update the central road map repository through roadside units. The roadside infrastructure nodes act as local databases for distributing regional 3D road map data in form of point clouds to autonomous vehicles passing by. Since the vehicles might have various side information regarding the road network and traffic condition, minimizing the required number of transmissions to satisfy the demand of participating vehicles through network coding is an interesting research problem in road map data dissemination. In this paper, we propose the Road Map Data Encoding and Dissemination System (REDS) and evaluate its performance in a four-way junction scenario. It is based on index coding for broadcasting road map data from a centrally-managed roadside node to vehicles. REDS uses the data availability and demand knowledge for encoding and transmitting 3D point cloud road map data from different road segments. The data availability information helps prevent the transmission of duplicated road map data and provides the sets of side information in the index coding problem, while the data demand information further defines the message transmission priority based on the data demand of different road segments. Simulation results indicate that REDS reduces the average number of transmissions and transmitted point cloud data size by around 30% when the data availability probability is about 0.5 under random mobility in all simulated scenarios when compared to the traditional broadcasting approach.
