This project has a Russian documentation on overleaf
1. Create a road network file, save the config file and road flow settings.
2. In the simulation configuration file (extension .sumocfg) add an instruction to save the simulation results in the FCD (flying cars data) format.
<output>
<fcd-output value="FILENAME.xml" />;
</output>
This instruction must be inserted between the <configuration> and </configuration> tags
1. Open terminal and, using the cd command, navigate to the directory with the simulation result.
2. Run the command python SUMOHOME/tools/xml/xml2csv.py FILENAME.xml.
After performing these steps, you should have a FILENAME.csv file of the SUMO FCD format in your working directory
1. Create a simulation configuration file of the following format:
Key1=Value
Key2=Value
dataFilepath - full path to the simulation file FILENAME.csv
csvSep - csv file separator, default option is semicolon
envScenario - simulation scenario, available options - highway. The default scenario is highway
signalFreq - frequency of the signal transmitted by the machines, positive integer
signalPower - power of the signal transmitted by the machines, positive integer
propLossRegion - the averaging regions for propagation loss chart, positive integer. The default value is 500
packagesRegion - the averaging regions for all the packages-based metrics, positive integer. The default value is 500
simCnt - number of simulation runs, positive integer. The default value is 1
receptionThreshold - minimal signal power required for the machine receiver to process a message, float
The program can correctly process simulation files of extensions .csv, .xls and .xlsx, an attempt to transfer a file of other extension will cause an error.
2. Run the program through the command line
Important: the program perceives the path to the simulation data file relative to the script position in the file system, so if your configuration file is not in the same folder as the program, the absolute path to the simulation data file must be passed as the dataFilepath parameter.
The program returns a set of signal reception metrics, which show how effective the cars were at communicating with each other.
