Re: [sumo-user] Needing more information for platooning model

[Jakob Erdmann <namdre.sumo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

are you trying to implement a new model within sumo (C++) or are you trying to control the simulation via TraCI?

In either case, the acceleration is implied in the change of speed from one step to the next.

Within sumo you can call MSVehicle::getAcceleration() and from TraCI you need to record the speed from the previous step for each vehicle in order to compute acceleration.

To get the leader of a platoon you can call getLeader repeatedly (on the previous leader) until the distance to the next leader crosses some threshold you find suitable.

regards,

Jakob

Hello,

I am working on implementing a platooning model based on IDM and for that purpose I would need a way to find the leader in a merge situation. I saw that both the IDM and the normal MSCFModel provide you with the leaders speed, but I would also need the acceleration as well as the leader of the whole platoon. If anyone can point in me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Sinziana Sebe
