Balancing Safety, Cyber-Security, and Mobility: Quantifying the Impact of Sensor Redundancy in Connected and Automated Vehicles

This project aims to investigate the impact of sensor redundancy on enhancing perception fidelity, fault tolerance, and threat detection and identification performance within electric autonomous vehicles. It will analyze these advantages alongside the potential drawbacks such as increased vehicle production costs and energy demands associated with redundant sensors, utilizing a thorough analytical framework. Additionally, the study will explore the feasibility of offloading redundant sensor functionalities to RSUs, thereby optimizing resource utilization. The research will involve comprehensive data collection and model validation at Mcity.
