B2X Communication System for Smart Autonomous Bikes

Intelligent Transportation Systems-ITS were introduced to provide new innovative ways of transportation that enhance user information and safety. In this context, autonomous systems implement special modules to do away with the human errors which are frequent in non-autonomous ones and which, in turn, could lead to injuries and deaths. Today, autonomous systems are able to communicate with each other and with the infrastructure to improve coordination and provide new services. In this paper, we have designed and built a lightweight communication system to connect road entities. In addition, we have implemented it and tested it using a smart autonomous bike prototype setup. The communication system proposed connects the bike to other vehicles, embedded hardware, smart devices and people.
