Abstract

The vehicle-to-everything (V2X) technology has made a significant advancement in the field of intelligent transportation in recent years. When operating a vehicle in a V2X environment, the driver can get real-time updates on the motion of nearby vehicles. In a real-world traffic situation, there is always some deviation between the actual and anticipated traffic information, and this deviation will undoubtedly have a significant effect on traffic flow. Drivers always maintain the flow of traffic by taking some time to assess and decide how the drivers in front of them are behaving behind the car in the traffic system. As a result, by taking into account the driver's advanced reaction time and optimal deviation in a V2X environment, a novel car-following model is developed and the effects of these parameters on the traffic flow are examined. In order to determine the stability requirements for the new model, the linear and nonlinear stability of the proposed model is examined using the perturbation methods. Studies have found that when the driver's reaction time and the velocity deviation are optimized, it can reduce the amplitude of the stability curve, thus enlarging the area of more stable motion. Also, the numerical simulation supports the theoretical research by showing that the new model may effectively reduce traffic congestion and improve the stability of traffic flow as the influence of these factors on the traffic flow increases.
