Selecting Remote Driving Locations for Latency Sensitive Reliable Tele-Operation
These days, autonomous vehicles (AVs) technology has been improved dramatically. However, even though the AVs require no human intervention in most situations, AVs may fail in certain situations. In such cases, it is desirable that humans can operate the vehicle manually to recover from a failure si...

However, even though the AVs require no human intervention in most situations, AVs may fail in certain situations. In such cases, it is desirable that humans can operate the vehicle manually to recover from a failure situation through remote driving.

In this paper, we consider a revolutionary transportation platform, where all the vehicles in an area are controlled by some remote controllers or drivers so that transportation can be performed in a more efficient way. For example, road capacity can be effectively utilized and fuel efficiency can be increased by centralized remote control. However, one of the biggest challenges in such remote driving is the communication latency between the remote driver and the vehicle. Thus, selecting appropriate locations of the remote drivers is very important to avoid any type of safety problem that might happen due to large communication latency. Furthermore, the selection should reflect the traffic situation created by multiple vehicles in an area. To tackle these challenges, in this paper, we propose several algorithms that select remote drivers’ locations for a given transportation schedules of multiple vehicles.

These days, autonomous vehicles (AVs) technology has been improved dramatically. However, even though the AVs require no human intervention in most situations, AVs may fail in certain situations. In such cases, it is desirable that humans can operate the vehicle manually to recover from a failure situation through remote driving. Furthermore, we believe that remote driving can enhance the current transportation system in various ways. In this paper, we consider a revolutionary transportation platform, where all the vehicles in an area are controlled by some remote controllers or drivers so that transportation can be performed in a more efficient way. For example, road capacity can be effectively utilized and fuel efficiency can be increased by centralized remote control. However, one of the biggest challenges in such remote driving is the communication latency between the remote driver and the vehicle. Thus, selecting appropriate locations of the remote drivers is very important to avoid any type of safety problem that might happen due to large communication latency. Furthermore, the selection should reflect the traffic situation created by multiple vehicles in an area. To tackle these challenges, in this paper, we propose several algorithms that select remote drivers’ locations for a given transportation schedules of multiple vehicles. We consider two objectives in this system and evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithms through simulations.
