Abstract

Real-time information freshness is critical for ensuring timely status updates in applications such as vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communications and autonomous driving. The age of information (AoI) metric is valuable for evaluating the freshness of delivered packets. However, maintaining low AoI is challenging due to limited bandwidth, computational delays, and stringent freshness requirements. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a novel packet management strategy, called age-priority last-generated first-served (AP-LGFS) for a multi-road user system operating over a cellular network. AP-LGFS dynamically prioritizes newly arrived packets and selectively preempts ongoing transmissions when incoming packets exhibit a lower expected AoI, ensuring the timely delivery of critical updates. Then, the proposed AP-LGFS is combined with queuing model to analyze both AoI and peak AoI (PAoI) in road user-to-vehicle communication links. Additionally, it investigates the impact of road user packet arrival rates on information freshness. We use a stochastic process to compare our strategy with other scheduling strategies within the solution space. Comparative simulations demonstrate that AP-LGFS outperforms other scheduling strategies in minimizing AoI and PAoI, thereby enhancing information freshness, and supporting reliable V2X communication systems.
最小化车对物通信中AoI的新颖数据包管理策略
在车联网(V2X)通信和自动驾驶等应用中,实时信息的新鲜度对于确保及时更新状态至关重要。信息年龄(age of information, AoI)度量对于评估所传递数据包的新鲜度很有价值。然而,由于有限的带宽、计算延迟和严格的新鲜度要求,维持低AoI是具有挑战性的。为了解决这些挑战,本文提出了一种新的分组管理策略,称为年龄优先级后生成先服务(AP-LGFS),用于在蜂窝网络上运行的多路用户系统。AP-LGFS动态地对新到达的数据包进行优先级排序,并在传入数据包表现出较低的预期AoI时选择性地抢占正在进行的传输,从而确保及时交付关键更新。然后,将提出的AP-LGFS与排队模型相结合,分析道路用户-车辆通信链路的AoI和峰值AoI (PAoI)。此外,它还研究了道路用户数据包到达率对信息新鲜度的影响。我们使用随机过程将我们的策略与解空间中的其他调度策略进行比较。仿真对比表明,AP-LGFS在最小化AoI和pai方面优于其他调度策略,从而提高了信息的新鲜度,支持可靠的V2X通信系统。
