Research of Three-Dimensional Layered Network Architecture LDM³ for ITS

Abstract:

As Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) grows increasingly in size and complexity, the issues on how to improve interoperability and the performance of processing massive data become more critical. This paper proposes a new three-dimensional layered network architecture called Local Dynamic Map/Multimedia/Management (LDM³) to address these issues. In LDM³, the three-dimensional architecture consists of the information fusion layer newly introduced, as well as the application layer and transport layer. The primitive mechanism defined in the architecture improves the efficiency of the communication of network elements in such heterogeneous network system. By using the standardized format of message and data, the application systems can get desired information pushed by information fusion layer, instead of processing data from all kinds of sensors. This mechanism improves the effectiveness of the whole system significantly by avoiding duplicate work on different application systems. Meanwhile, the workload and the hardware requirement for application systems are relieved. We apply LDM³ in the demonstration project for traffic Internet Of Things (IOT) in Jiangsu province. The result shows LDM³ is an effective and efficient solution for ITS.
