This section of I-75 corridor has five regular lanes in addition to one HOV lane in most parts of the study area. Vehicle traffic in the opposite directions is separated by a concrete median barrier. All the experiments were conducted between 2pm and 5pm under non-congested traffic conditions and non-inclement weather conditions.For the experiments, laptop computers running Red Hat Linux 9, an ORINOCO 802.11b gold card with a 2.5dB omni-directional external antenna placed on the roof of the vehicle, and a Garmin 72 GPS receiver (with WAAS correction). The wireless cards configured in IBSS ad-hoc mode with power management turned off and a fixed data rate. The GPS reports latitude, longitude, speed, and heading of the vehicle every 2 seconds. The location information reported by GPS has an accuracy of 5-7 meters. We obtained location information every second through interpolation. All experiments were conducted using broadcast at 2Mbps that allows us to explore basic communication performance because there is no RTS/CTS/ACK and retransmissions.IPerf, a network performance measurement tool was used along with the GPS readings to in conjunction with GPS readings to measure network performance. Both sender and receiver log time, location, velocity (from GPS), data packets received / sent, and signal quality./download/gatech/vehicular/vehicular_traces.tar.gz13200603152006-11-14gatech/vehicular/v2rMeasurement of the traffic from vehicle to roadside.

the initial version2006-03-152005-02-042005-02-11Network Performance AnalysisSender and Receiver were equipped with the same equipment described above in network description. While the sender was in a vehicle. The sending vehicle traveled in loops Exit 252B and Exit 255 along I-75 for 5 laps. The vehicle was driven in the rightmost lane whenever possible. The sender broadcasted packets of 1470 bytes at an average rate of about 150 packets/s. The receiver was placed on the Peachtree Battle bridge above the median. The receiver was placed in either southern or northern side of the bridge and at different heights. Different locations of the receiver are as follows: a. Low Howell - The receiver was placed on the southern side of the bridge facing Exit 252B on the table of height 0.7m. The traces of this experiment are stored in the low_howell directory. b. High Howell - The receiver was placed on the southern side of the bridge facing Exit 252B on a tripod of height 1.8m. The traces for this experiment are stored in high_howell directory. c. Low Moore - The receiver was placed on the northern side of the bridge facing Exit 254 on the table of height 0.7m. The traces of this experiment are stored in the low_moore directory. d. High Moore - The receiver was placed on the northern side of the bridge facing Exit 254 on a tripod of height 1.8m. The traces for this experiment are stored in high_moore directory.The traces for each lap are stored in separate files. Trace file format consists of: #, Time in Sec,Time in usec, Bytes sent,Sender latitude, Sender longitude, Sender Speed (km/h), Sender Altitude (m), Receiver latitude, Receiver Longitude, Receiver Speed, Receiver Altitude (m), Packet Received (Y/N), Bytes Received, Signal Strength, Noise Strength. - # : Packet ID. Each packet sent was identified by a unique id. - Time in Sec : Time at which the packet was sent. This value gives the number of seconds since the Epoch. It is obtained by gettimeofday() function call on Linux. - Time in usec : Time at which the packet was sent. This value gives the number of microseconds since Epoch. It is obtained by gettimeofday() function call on Linux. - Bytes Sent : Number of bytes sent in the packet having id #. - Sender Latitude : Obtained from GPS. Format - dd.ddddddN.

Signal strength is 0 for dropped packets. The value of "-256" indicates that the signal strength measurement was turned off during the experiment. Hence neglect the signal strength measurements with value -256. - Noise Strength : This is measured at the receiver using ioctl system call. Noise strength is 0 for dropped packets. The value of "-256" indicates that the noise strength measurement was turned off during the experiment. Hence neglect the noise strength measurements with value -256.gatech/vehicular37200603152006-11-14gatech/vehicular/v2r/low_mooreTrace of the traffic between vehicle to roadside where the receiver was placed low on the northern side of the bridge.

the initial version2006-03-152005-02-232005-04-20Network Performance AnalysisBoth the sender and receiver were placed in vehicles. Two different kinds of experiments were conducted. a. Following Scenario: The vehicles traveled in a loop between Exit 250 and Exit 255 with the sender vehicle following the receiving vehicle. Both the vehicles remained in the same lane, second from right. We tried to maintain same distance between two vehicles in a lap. But the distance between two vehicles was varied for different laps. The traces for this experiment are stored in v2v_follow directory. This experiment was done on two days. Hence there are two folders - one for each day in the v2v_follow directory. b. Crossing Scenario: The experiments were conducted on I-75 between Exit 252B and Exit 254. The two vehicles always stayed in the rightmost lane, and were separated by 8 lanes of traffic and a concrete median. The traces for this experiment are stored in v2v_opposite directory.The traces for each lap are stored in separate files.
