Abstract

Intelligent Transportation Systems based on Vehicle-2-X communication have been a major research topic for several years. Meanwhile, deployment strategies for the used Vehicle-2-X systems need to be developed not only to coordinate the market introduction but also to manage the manufacturer's development projects to achieve market-ready products. Such development processes include among others testing periods as major tasks. Thus, the deployment of market-ready Vehicle-2-X system demands for test methodologies designed for that purpose. Among the first introduced Vehicle-2-X applications, intersection related ones will play a major role because of their information flow's simplicity. So, the near future calls for test methodologies particularly for those applications because testing is important for the development of market-ready systems. For that reason, a test methodology is presented which treats systems implementing intersection related Vehicle-2-X applications as systems under test. The stimulation of the system under test is based on input streams and the evaluation is based on output streams. In addition, results of a proof of concept using the Audi travolution system are enclosed.
