Project Objective

Week 1

​Week 1 Presentation

Summary

• Looked into key terms such as MQTT, Multi-Access Edge Computing (MEC), Enhanced Vehicle-to-Everything Communication (eV2X Communication), and Virtual Roadside Units (vRSU)
• Installed and tested Mosquitto, an MQTT broker on Linux, through these commands:

  sudo apt-add-repository ppa:mosquitto-dev/mosquitto-ppa
  sudo apt-get update
  sudo apt-get install mosquitto
  sudo apt-get install mosquitto-clients
  sudo apt clean
  

Week 2

​Week 2 Presentation

Summary

• Met with our advisors to discuss and define the project's direction
  • To be written
• Took a look at simulation software CARLA (Car Learning to Act) and SUMO (Simulation for Urban Mobility)
• Installed and tested Paho, another MQTT broker on Linux, as a substitute for Mosquitto
  • Paho is a Python-based MQTT broker, which is much more compatible with CARLA and SUMO
