Research/Project Description

COM2REACT Cooperative Communication System to Realise Enhanced Safety and Efficiency in European Road Transport:
A key feature of COM2REACT is a Virtual Sub-Centre, which controls a moving group of vehicles in close proximity. The virtual sub-centre (VSC) functions locally via the V2V communication system, processing data acquired by the vehicles and rapidly providing instructions related to local traffic and safety situations. It also transmits, by way of V2C communication, selective data to RCC and receives, in return, instructions to distribute to the vehicles. The role of VSC is set, unnoticeable by the driver, to one of the vehicles in the group according to rules imbedded in all COM2REACT vehicles.

COM2REACT will build upon the DG Research REACT project. REACT comprises sensorequipped vehicles and RCC. COM2REACT will add VSC and integrate it with REACT to obtain a functioning 3-level control system and confirm VSC’s added value. In addition, sensors complementary to the system functioning will be added.
