  bibo_abstract:
  - CACC systems have been proven to increase road utilization, safety and decrease
    fuel consumption by driving with a small headway at freeway speed. Such platooning
    systems are usually focused on freeway scenarios and most of the current research
    is done for this use case. Especially in urban scenarios at traffic lights and
    intersections there is a lot of potential to increase the traffic efficiency and
    safety by applying platooning mechanisms. Most of the techniques used on freeways
    are not applicable for urban scenarios, as freeways are more or less a multi lane
    one-way road. In my PhD project I want to investigate platooning as an application
    for urban scenarios. For this I plan to examine platooning for signalized and
    non-signalized intersections in a first step, but also consider platoon formation
    strategies and driver models for human driven platoons. The end result should
    be a set of algorithms and strategies to make urban and rural traffic more efficient
    and safer by the use of platooning. Evaluation and analysis will mainly be done
    by using simulations, but not limited to that.@eng
