• Abstract:
  The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) continues to be a leader in the research and development of connected and automated vehicle (CAV) applications, which have the potential to offer significant benefits in the areas of mobility and safety. One of the major challenges in testing and demonstrating the benefits of these technologies is the exorbitant cost of large-scale, multivehicle demonstrations. This has resulted in a lack of robust CAV field data for the development of valid CAV modeling tools for State and local transportation agencies. ; One way to overcome these challenges is to use emerging HIL tools that enable physical vehicles to interact with virtual vehicles from traffic simulation models. This provides an environment that can replicate deployment conditions without incurring the prohibitive cost of multiple advanced vehicles.
