DSRC or LTE? Selecting the Best Medium for V2I Communication using Game Theory
Résumé
Vehicular communication is a very challenging and essentialresearch area capable of supporting safety and routing decision-making. Vehicle to Infrastructure (V2I) communication often refers to communication between vehicles and Road Side Units (RSU),and recently several technologies have been developed to support it, such as ZigBee, Wi-Fi, GSM, Long Term Evolution (LTE), and 802.11p Direct Short Range Communication (DSRC). In this field, there is a competition between wireless DSRC and cellular LTE to define the most efficient type of communication. This paper aims to analyze the strengths and weaknesses of the DSRC and LTE to evaluate their performances and select the right technology for communication between vehicles and RSUs. Therefore, a vehicle equipped with both LTE and DSRC modules is assumed, and we propose a game-theoretic formulation to select the most efficient type of communication. The proposed formulation results in two equilibria; based on them, the vehicle and the RSU select the same communication module. Here it presents the correlated equilibrium when a trusted source makes the decision, and it discusses the two equilibria as a potential game formulation.
