Autonomy for multiple trucks to drive in a fixed-headway platoon formation is achieved by adding precision GPS and V2V communications to a conventional adaptive cruise control (ACC) system. The performance of the Cooperative ACC (CACC) system depends heavily on the reliability of the underlying V2V communications network. Using data recorded on precision-instrumented trucks at both ACM and NCAT test tracks, we provide an understanding of various effects on V2V network performance:Our results, which include multiple plots and graphs and their analysis, build on those reported by others and could be of interest to researchers, practitioners, and end-users in the broader autonomous-connected vehicle community.
