Solution Overview

Problem

Current V2X communication systems face challenges in accurately transmitting and receiving messages for work zone safety services, particularly in providing precise information about lane closures and work segment details, due to limitations in information representation using single reference positions and lane closed segment information.

Innovation Solution

The proposed solution involves a V2X communication device that generates a V2I message with a common container including message ID, event ID, and reference position information, and a specific container with lane closed segment, lane closed start segment, and reference position offset information, processed through network/transport and physical layers using Wave Short Message Protocol (WSMP), to provide accurate work segment-related information.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If a single reference position and lane closed segment information are used to represent work zone data, then the message structure is simple, but the precision of work segment location information is insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveprecision of work segment location informationVSAvoidcomplexity of message structure
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The work zone information is segmented into multiple reference positions (first reference position and second reference position) with separate distance values (first distance and second distance) to represent different segments of the closed lane. This segmentation allows precise representation of work zone locations by dividing the overall work zone into manageable segments, each with its own reference point and distance measurement.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces an additional dimensional parameter by adding a second reference position and second distance to the traditional single reference position model. This creates a two-dimensional reference system that captures the spatial extent of work zones more accurately, transforming the representation from a single-point reference to a distributed multi-point reference system.

If detailed work zone information including multiple reference positions and distances is transmitted, then the accuracy of safety alarms is improved, but the amount of data to be processed increases
