Connected Vehicle Safety Applications using V2X Under Consideration of Bicycles, Pedestrians and Persons with Special Needs

The current research effort investigates the feasibility and reliability of bicycle Safety Applications (SA) that use the same basic communication capabilities as vehicles, thus allowing vehicle-to-bicycle (V2B) communication. However, just like in the case of SA for vehicles, their reliability of SA may be affected by natural phenomena that degrades communication and malicious act. This may affect the accuracy of data in general, as in the case of GPS errors and timing errors, but it may be the result of malicious act like jamming of the communication.
