Abstract
Edge computing in vehicles is emerging as an essential candidate for the Internet of Vehicles (IoV) to improve traffic efficiency. The proliferation of IoV pushes the horizon of edge computing. The social features and connections among vehicles are significant for traffic efficiency solutions. However, it is quite challenging to perform collaborative edge computing (CEC) for social IoV systems because of network heterogeneity, vehicle mobility, user selfishness, privacy, and so on. This article focuses on the CEC, in the social IoV system to alleviate urban traffic congestion. Recent research reveals that intelligent traffic lights control through city-wide mobile edge computing (MEC) servers can reduce vehicles’ average waiting time at signal intersections. This article has focused on a CEC-based traffic management system (CEC-TMS) to reduce the average waiting time. It utilizes multiagent-based deep reinforcement learning (DRL) for the MEC servers that interact with IoV and traffic lights to generate dynamic green waves at congested intersections. Results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed system under the paradigm of multiagent DRL.
