Comparative analysis of V2V and A2A technologies

Abstract

In recent years, around the world, there has been work underway on systems, which will increase not only the comfort of traveling but, above all, the safety and reliability of the road traffic. The systems in this field, designed to replace human beings in the future, thus eliminating their mistakes on the road, already have their prototypes. However, these prototypes are still being improved and require a lot of work so they could operate fully and reliably. The subject of the publication is a compilation of two new concepts in the field of Intelligent Transport Systems. These concepts are V2V (Vehicle - to - Vehicle) and A2A (Autonomous vehicle - to - Autonomous vehicle). Their comparison was carried out in terms of functionality, communication, vehicle equipment, legal aspects and the anticipated date of their entry into the market. Also examples of first tests and implementations of vehicles with driver assistance systems, and semi-autonomous vehicles were presented.
