论文摘要
将无人驾驶飞机（UAV）集成到未来的智能运输系统（ITS）中，可以利用其独特的移动性潜力，以改善诸如近场包裹交付，动态网络供应和空中感知等服务的性能。为了为方法学性能分析提供可控的环境，模拟框架需要支持基于地面和航空的移动性以及所涉及的通信技术。在本文中，我们介绍了以ICT为中心的开源轻型移动性模拟（Limosim）框架，用于模拟网络模拟器3（NS-3）中的混合车辆网络。 Limosim实现了共享代码库耦合方法，该方法将所有必需的组件集成在单个仿真过程中。低级移动性行为依赖于众所周知的分析模型。为了说明如何将所提出的框架集成到基于NS-3的网络仿真设置中，讨论了讨论诸如细胞车辆到所有物质（C-V2X）和毫米波（MMWAVE）等尖端通信技术（C-V2X）和毫米波（MMWave）的不同案例研究。
Integrating Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) into future Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITSs) allows to exploit their unique mobility potentials for improving the performance of services such as near-field parcel delivery, dynamic network provisioning, and aerial sensing. In order to provide a controllable environment for the methodological performance analysis, simulation frameworks need to support ground- and aerial-based mobility as well as the involved communication technologies. In this paper, we present the open source Lightweight ICT-centric Mobility Simulation (LIMoSim) framework for simulating hybrid vehicular networks within Network Simulator 3 (ns-3). LIMoSim implements a shared codebase coupling approach which integrates all required components in a single simulation process. The low-level mobility behaviors rely on well-known analytical models. Different case studies discussing cutting-edge communication technologies such as Cellular Vehicle-to-Everything (C-V2X) and millimeter Wave (mmWave) are presented in order to illustrate how the proposed framework can be integrated into ns-3-based network simulation setups.
