V2P (vehicle-to-pedestrian) communication can improve road traffic efficiency, solve traffic congestion, and improve traffic safety. It is an important direction for the development of smart transportation in the future. Existing V2P communication systems are limited to the early warning of vehicles and pedestrians, and do not plan the trajectory of vehicles to achieve active collision avoidance. In order to reduce the adverse effects on vehicle comfort and economy caused by switching the “stop–go” state, this paper uses a PF (particle filter) to preprocess GPS (Global Positioning System) data to solve the problem of poor positioning accuracy. An obstacle avoidance trajectory-planning algorithm that meets the needs of vehicle path planning is proposed, which considers the constraints of the road environment and pedestrian travel. The algorithm improves the obstacle repulsion model of the artificial potential field method, and combines it with the A* algorithm and model predictive control. At the same time, it controls the input and output based on the artificial potential field method and vehicle motion constraints, so as to obtain the planned trajectory of the vehicle’s active obstacle avoidance. The test results show that the vehicle trajectory planned by the algorithm is relatively smooth, and the acceleration and steering angle change ranges are small. Based on ensuring safety, stability, and comfort in vehicle driving, this trajectory can effectively prevent collisions between vehicles and pedestrians and improve traffic efficiency.

LoRa (Long Range), a wireless communication technology for low power wide area networks (LPWANs), enables a wide range of IoT applications and inter-device communication, due to its openness and flexible network deployment. In the actual deployment and operation of LoRa networks, the static link transmission scheme does not make full use of the channel resources in the time-varying channel environment, resulting in a poor network performance. In this paper, we propose a more effective adaptive data rate (ADR) algorithm for low-cost gateways, we firstly analyze the impact of the different hardware parameters (RSSI, SNR) on the link quality and classify the link quality using the fuzzy support vector machine (FSVM). Secondly, we establish an end device (ED) throughput model and energy consumption model and design different adaptive rate algorithms, according to the different link quality considering both the link-level performance and the MAC layer performance. The proposed algorithm uses machine learning to classify the link quality, which can accurately classify the link quality using a small amount of data, compared to other adaptive rate algorithms, and the link parameter adaptation algorithm can maximize the throughput while ensuring the link stability, by considering the link-level performance and the MAC layer performance, compared to other algorithms. The results show that it outperforms the standard LoRaWAN ADR algorithm in both the single ED and the multi ED scenarios, in terms of the packets reception rate (PRR) and the network throughput. Compared to the LoRaWAN ADR in 32 multi-ED scenarios, the proposed algorithm improves the throughput by 34.12% and packets the reception rate by 26%, significantly improving the network throughput and the packets reception rate.

In an intelligent driving environment, monitoring the physiological state of drivers is crucial for ensuring driving safety. This paper proposes a method for monitoring and analyzing driver physiological characteristics by combining electronic vehicle identification (EVI) with multimodal biometric recognition. The method aims to efficiently monitor the driver’s heart rate, breathing frequency, emotional state, and fatigue level, providing real-time feedback to intelligent driving systems to enhance driving safety. First, considering the precision, adaptability, and real-time capabilities of current physiological signal monitoring devices, an intelligent cushion integrating MEMSs (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) and optical sensors is designed. This cushion collects heart rate and breathing frequency data in real time without disrupting the driver, while an electrodermal activity monitoring system captures electromyography data. The sensor layout is optimized to accommodate various driving postures, ensuring accurate data collection. The EVI system assigns a unique identifier to each vehicle, linking it to the physiological data of different drivers. By combining the driver physiological data with the vehicle’s operational environment data, a comprehensive multi-source data fusion system is established for a driving state evaluation. Secondly, a deep learning model is employed to analyze physiological signals, specifically combining Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks. The CNN extracts spatial features from the input signals, while the LSTM processes time-series data to capture the temporal characteristics. This combined model effectively identifies and analyzes the driver’s physiological state, enabling timely anomaly detection. The method was validated through real-vehicle tests involving multiple drivers, where extensive physiological and driving behavior data were collected. Experimental results show that the proposed method significantly enhances the accuracy and real-time performance of physiological state monitoring. These findings highlight the effectiveness of combining EVI with multimodal biometric recognition, offering a reliable means for assessing driver states in intelligent driving systems. Furthermore, the results emphasize the importance of personalizing adjustments based on individual driver differences for more effective monitoring.

With the rapid growth of demands in marine resource exploitation, environmental monitoring, and maritime safety, cooperative operations based on Unmanned Surface Vehicles (USVs) and Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have emerged as a promising paradigm for intelligent ocean missions. UAVs offer flexibility and high coverage efficiency but suffer from limited endurance due to restricted battery capacity, making them unsuitable for large-scale tasks alone. In contrast, USVs provide long endurance and can serve as mobile motherships and energy-supply platforms, enabling UAVs to take off, land, recharge, or replace batteries. Therefore, how to achieve cooperative path planning and energy replenishment scheduling for USV–UAV systems in complex marine environments remains a crucial challenge. This study proposes a USV–UAV cooperative path planning and energy replenishment optimization method based on BeiDou high-precision positioning. First, a unified system model is established, incorporating task coverage, energy constraints, and replenishment scheduling, and formulating the problem as a multi-objective optimization model with the goals of minimizing total mission time, energy consumption, and waiting time, while maximizing task completion rate. Second, a bi-level optimization framework is designed: the upper layer optimizes the USV’s dynamic trajectory and docking positions, while the lower layer optimizes UAV path planning and battery replacement scheduling. A closed-loop interaction mechanism is introduced, enabling the system to adaptively adjust according to task execution status and UAV energy consumption, thus preventing task failures caused by battery depletion. Furthermore, an improved hybrid algorithm combining genetic optimization and multi-agent reinforcement learning is proposed, featuring adaptive task allocation and dynamic priority-based replenishment scheduling. A comprehensive reward function integrating task coverage, energy consumption, waiting time, and collision penalties is designed to enhance global optimization and intelligent coordination. Extensive simulations in representative marine scenarios demonstrate that the proposed method significantly outperforms baseline strategies. Specifically, it achieves around higher task completion rate, shorter mission time, lower total energy consumption, and shorter waiting time. Moreover, the variance of energy consumption across UAVs is notably reduced, indicating a more balanced workload distribution. These results confirm the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed framework in large-scale, long-duration maritime missions, providing valuable insights for future intelligent ocean operations and cooperative unmanned systems.

With the increasing deployment of unmanned systems in maritime patrol, coastal monitoring, and environmental mapping, achieving effective UAV-USV collaboration in dynamic environments remains challenging. This paper proposes an edge-intelligence-driven collaborative control framework that integrates unified data modeling, multi-objective task scheduling, lightweight fault-tolerant middleware, and multi-sensor fusion. A Weighted Kalman Filter combines UAV imaging and USV sonar data to enhance perception accuracy, while NSGA-II optimizes task allocation considering completion time, energy consumption, and sensing reliability. The framework was validated through representative maritime scenarios, including patrol and coastal sediment mapping, on a virtual simulation platform. Results show improved task efficiency, energy utilization, communication latency, and robustness compared with single-platform and centralized scheduling approaches. The proposed method provides a balanced optimization of execution efficiency, energy consumption, data accuracy, and resilience, offering a reliable solution for large-scale maritime applications.
