RSU Placement Considering V2X Services Requirements and Available Radio Resources.

Connected, cooperative and automated mobility (CCAM) is a growing field as the services required by connected vehicles increase in quantity and complexity. To be able to be connected, vehicles need network infrastructure to communicate with. Roadside Units (RSUs) are communication devices that are placed beside highways and roads and offer connectivity and processing services to the vehicles. The 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) has developed some standards which specify the characteristics of the services, as well as the spectral bands used to offer vehicle to everything (V2X) connectivity. In this paper, we study the optimal placement of RSUs in a V2X network for different service requirements and channel quality scenarios, considering the 3GPP standards. We formulate an Integer Linear Programming (ILP) model to minimize the number of RSU s needed and solve it for different traffic and channel conditions given by the 3GPP specifications. Results offer the number of required RSU s and their placement for vehicular access networks deployments.
