    Abstract

    The paper analyses the characteristics of network effects present in the road hazard warning use case of C-ITS implemented with vehicle to vehicle communication. An approach based on conditional probability and analysis of spatial-temporal characteristics of a typical usage scenario was developed to analyse the relationship between the share of equipped road users and the conditional probability of an already equipped user receiving a warning of a relevant event. The results suggest that even relatively low fleet penetrations may allow communicating a road hazard warning as a DENM with high probability of success, when the hazard is detected and the related DENM transmitted by a vehicle travelling to opposite direction to user’s vehicle on a single-carriageway interurban road. The approach used in the paper also contributes to understanding of network effects in C-ITS use cases.
