Abstract

Autonomous car travel planning is increasingly gaining attention from scientists and professionals, who are addressing the integration of autonomous cars into the general urban transportation system. Autonomous car travel planning depends on the transport system infrastructure, the dynamic data, and their quality. The efficient development of travel depends on the development level of the Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) and the Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems (C-ITS). Today, most cities around the world are competing with each other to become the smartest cities possible, using and integrating the most advanced ITS and C-ITS that are available. It is clear that ITS and C-ITS are occupying an increasing share of urban transport infrastructure, so the complex challenges of ITS and C-ITS development will inevitably need to be addressed, in the near future, by integrating them into the overall urban transport system. With this in mind, the authors proposed three autonomous car travel development concepts that should become a conceptual tool in the development of ITS and C-ITS.

Summary

Introduction

Efforts are made to improve our environment and make it synonymous with a comfortable life; new products and technologies are being developed that are rapidly changing people’s environments and movement habits. Most experts or transport engineers and scientists working in the area of autonomous vehicles propose to connect both these systems so that there would be a possibility to precisely determine the positioning of the car in real time [7,8,9]. It is not just the connection between the car systems themselves that is important (V2V—Vehicle to Vehicle), and the communication between car and road infrastructure (V2I—Vehicle to Infrastructure).
