A Study on the Election of Suitable Leader Vehicle in Vehicle Platooning Using the Raft Algorithm
Existing vehicle platooning creates platooning of vehicles with the same destination, and the leader vehicle manages the platooning. Since there is no way to elect a leader vehicle for platooning management, and the leader vehicle has not changed since its initial election, it is difficult to cope with the traffic situation in real time. To complement this, it is proposed that the Raft algorithm is applied to automatically elect the appropriate leader vehicle. To verify this, the proposed platooning was analyzed by comparing them according to the platooning scenarios to confirm that flexible platooning is possible.
