Automated Highway Systems

Did you know that AHS leverages sensor technology and wireless communication, such as 5G, to enable features like vehicle platooning and dynamic traffic routing?

The book progresses systematically, beginning with foundational AHS concepts before delving into technological underpinnings like communication protocols and control algorithms. It then transitions to practical deployment considerations, including infrastructure needs and policy implications. A dedicated chapter addresses safety and security, including cybersecurity vulnerabilities.

Through empirical data, simulation results, and case studies, the book offers a balanced perspective on the current state and future prospects of AHS which touches upon computer science, electrical engineering, and public policy.

The book uniquely emphasizes a human-centered design approach, recognizing that public acceptance is as vital as technological advancement.
