Mo.va.on
• Connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) will soon join the current vehicle fleet.
• Their introduc.on will re-shape the transporta.on industry: • Safety • Conges.on • Emissions and energy consump.on • Freight • etc.
• Understanding CAVs’ full impact on traffic performance requires accurate modeling of their dynamics/movement.

Background
• Many studies inves.gated string stability in connected, automated systems (mostly CACC systems):
• The benefits of CACC over ACC systems were iden.fied (Zhang and Orosz, 2015; Lu et al., 2002).
• The immediate leader and platoon head were found to be the key to ensuring string stability (Swaroop, 1997).
• The possibility of developing decentralized CACC systems was shown (Naus et al., 2010).

Percola.on Theory
• Con.nuum Percola.on: There exists a cri.cal density (Pc), above which there is certainly a cluster with an infinite size in the system.
• Two types of Con.nuum Percola.on: • Boolean model • Random Connec.on model
• Boolean model: Each point (x) in the space is a center of a circle with radius r (C(x,r) ).
• Combina.on of these circles divide the space into two regions: occupied region and vacant region.
• A pair of nodes is connected if both nodes belong to the same occupied/vacant region.

Conclusion
• This paper presents a Percola.on Theory based approach to incorporate par.al communica.on and informa.on loss into analy.cal inves.ga.on of string stability.
• The analy.cal studies reveal that as communica.on range increases, the system becomes more stable.
• At communica.on ranges above 130m, the system performs very similar to the system with full connec.vity assump.on.
