Simulation and analysis of C-V2X data transmission in different traffic scenarios based on MAC layer scheduling algorithms

With the rapid development of communication technology, vehicles are becoming more and more intelligent, and Vehicle to Vehicle (V2V) communication has become an important cornerstone for the future intelligence of vehicles. Because of the high-reliability and low-latency characteristics of 5G networks, many applications can be realized by using Vehicle to Network (V2N) communications. Different applications have different requirements for Quality of Service (QoS), which should be met by the network, and the base station can use different scheduling methods to satisfy these different requirements. This paper focuses on the scheduler at the MAC layer in 5G base stations. The scheduler must handle both video signals and other communication signals transmitted by the vehicle, and must also consider Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest (HARQ) retransmissions. We performed a C-V2X signaling network transmission simulation by using OMNeT++. We considered urban and motorway, two public transportation scenarios. Different types of data are set to be transmitted in two scenarios. We used different scheduling schemes for data scheduling, then investigated the performance of these scheduling schemes for transmitting data. The methods and simulation experiments mentioned in this paper are important for practical generalization.
