An Edge–Mesh–Cloud Telemetry Architecture for High-Mobility Environments: Low-Latency V2V Hazard Dissemination in Competitive Motorcycling

At racing speeds above 300 km/h (≈83 m/s), hazard awareness becomes a vehicular-communications problem: 100 ms already correspond to about 8.3 m of blind travel before an alert can influence braking, line choice, or torque delivery. Cloud-only telemetry is therefore insufficient under intermittent coverage and variable round-trip delay, while conventional trackside and pit-wall links do not provide direct inter-bike hazard dissemination. We propose Hybrid Epistemic Offloading (HEO), an edge–mesh–cloud architecture for high-mobility V2V/V2X hazard dissemination that explicitly separates an ephemeral safety plane from a durable cloud-analytics plane. On-bike edge nodes ingest high-rate ECU/IMU signals over CAN and persist full-fidelity traces into standardized ASAM MDF containers, enabling loss-tolerant buffering, deterministic replay, and post hoc auditability across coverage gaps. For real-time safety, motorcycles form a local V2V mesh that disseminates compact hazard digests using latency-bounded gossip with adaptive fanout, TTL-based suppression, and redundancy-aware forwarding over sidelink-capable V2X links. The hazard channel is formulated as uncertainty-aware to account for localization error and propagation delay at race pace. We evaluate the system in two stages: (i) a reproducible mobility-coupled simulation/emulation campaign for mesh dissemination and durable edge → gateway → cloud delivery; and (ii) an MDF4 replay-based Jerez pilot for stability-oriented co-design analysis. Under the tested conditions, the durable MQTT path achieved an 83.4 ms median, 175.9 ms p95, and 303.74 ms maximum end-to-end latency with no observed event loss. In the Jerez pilot, the co-design workflow reduced mean wheel slip from 6.26% to 3.75% (−40.10%) and a control-volatility proxy from 0.1290 to 0.0212 (−83.58%).
