Clustering Problem

[paullee714]

i want make Vehicle Clustering, how can i make it?

does VENTOS support Vehicle Clustering?

Can you elaborate more on what do you mean by a vehicle cluster? If you mean a vehicle platoon (check link below), then the answer is yes. Go to examples/platoon_cacc and open the omnetpp.ini file. The first configuration (CACCVehicleStream1) shows you a simple platooning scenario. Have a look at section 3.7: 'Adding vehicle platoon' and section 4.3: 'platoon coordination'.

First of all, Thanks for your work. i'm really appreciate it. this time, i will ask just 2 Things.

<1. Transmission power and Transmission Range> how can i Change Transmision Range in Vehicle using Transmission power?

<2. about Vehicle Cluster(Group)> I mean Cluster is Grouping. I saw the Platoon_CACC code and running motion. i Think the platoon code is already make group. i want make group just step by step. i need variable Group. there is no group in standard communication.

now i'm trying to make a Vehicle Group. my algorithm is here.

1. check collision rate is rsu
2. if ( collision rate >= Threshold) --> go to Group
3. in Group, Group Member change the Transmission range (Change it's TxPower to reduce Transmission range)
4. Group Member communication with just Group Member and Group Leader
5. Group Master(Group Leader) Communication with other Group Leader and RSU The VENTOS support these things?

Thank you for the help. after my work is done, i wanna donate for your group.

Get the latest code + manual. Section 18.3 in page 113 of the manual gives you an example on how to do this.

check collision rate is rsu

You can get a pointer from the PHY layer of each node and then read the PHY layer statistics like collisions.
