Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) represent a major effort by researchers, policymakers and industry professionals to enable vehicles to communicate critical information with other vehicles and surrounding infrastructure via wireless networks. Connected Vehicle (CV) technology is one of the latest and most innovative developments within ITS. The core of CV technology is wireless communication within a highly mobile environment. To improve mobility and safety, transportation management agencies across the world are developing and implementing ITS strategies. Although the concept of CV was introduced only a few years ago, it has evolved quickly; however, there is still a research gap in Canada regarding how CV technology can improve freeway mobility for all road users.***The proposed research program aims to bridge the ITS gap in Canada by exploring innovative, scientifically sound, and technologically feasible solutions for enhancing CV technology in proactive freeway control. This augments the Government of Canada's effort to develop and leverage a safe, innovative and sustainable, world-class, multi-modal transportation strategy that supports a growing economy and a high quality of life for Canadians.***Over the past six years, with the support from a NSERC Discovery Grant and as planned in the original test bed proposal, the City of Edmonton and Alberta Transportation have been working closely with my research team on the Whitemud Drive and Anthony Henday Drive test beds. With the infrastructure funding support from CFI, Transport Canada, Alberta Transportation, and City of Edmonton, within the next three years, my research program will install 10 Roadside Equipment (RSE) units along Whitemud Drive, 8 RSE along Anthony Henday Drive, and put 200 vehicle On-Board Equipment (OBE) units into 200 vehicles to support this research program. ***With the potential support from the NSERC Discovery Grant for the next five years, several fundamental research topics will be explored: 1) How the new data generated from the CV technology will be used to enhance existing data sources; 2) The capabilities and potential, in terms of driver behaviour, roadways and vehicles, of DSRC-based On-Board Equipment (OBE) to determine whether OBE can be used to improve traffic data capturing and freeway management; 3) How existing smart devices and CV technology can work together as an advisory tool for travellers, through analytic modeling and analysis.**

智能交通系统 (ITS) 是研究人员、政策制定者和行业专业人士的一项重大努力，旨在使车辆能够通过无线网络与其他车辆和周围基础设施通信关键信息。联网车辆 (CV) 技术是 ITS 领域最新、最具创新性的发展之一。 CV技术的核心是高度移动环境中的无线通信。为了提高流动性和安全性，世界各地的运输管理机构正在制定和实施 ITS 战略。尽管简历的概念仅在几年前提出，但它的发展却很快。然而，加拿大在 CV 技术如何改善所有道路使用者的高速公路流动性方面仍存在研究空白。***拟议的研究计划旨在通过探索创新、科学合理且技术上可行的解决方案来弥补加拿大的 ITS 差距增强主动式高速公路控制中的 CV 技术。这加强了加拿大政府制定和利用安全、创新和可持续的世界级多式联运战略的努力，以支持加拿大经济的增长和高质量的生活。***在过去六年中，在 NSERC 发现补助金的支持下，按照最初试验台提案的计划，埃德蒙顿市和艾伯塔省交通运输部一直与我的研究团队在 Whitemud Drive 和 Anthony Henday Drive 试验台上密切合作。在 CFI、加拿大交通部、艾伯塔省交通部和埃德蒙顿市的基础设施资金支持下，在未来三年内，我的研究计划将沿 Whitemud Drive 安装 10 个路边设备 (RSE) 装置，沿 Anthony Henday Drive 安装 8 个 RSE，并安装将 200 个车载设备 (OBE) 单元安装到 200 辆车中以支持该研究计划。 ***在未来五年 NSERC Discovery Grant 的潜在支持下，将探讨几个基础研究课题：1）如何使用 CV 技术生成的新数据来增强现有数据源； 2) 基于 DSRC 的车载设备 (OBE) 在驾驶员行为、道路和车辆方面的能力和潜力，以确定 OBE 是否可用于改进交通数据捕获和高速公路管理； 3) 现有智能设备和 CV 技术如何通过分析建模和分析结合起来，作为旅行者的咨询工具。**
