GENERAL ABSTRACT

Given existing environmental pressures, the importance of traffic safety, and increasing regulatory constraints, mobility in cities is a significant concern for communities and citizens. In this context, technological innovations based on the widespread use of connected and shared vehicles, the emergence of Autonomous Vehicles (AVs), impose a reflection on the definition of sustainable urban mobility in the cities of the future. In addition to traditional transport, individual solutions are being developed (car sharing, soft mobility, autonomous shuttle, son on), which must be part of a global urban mobility system. In this sense, the concept of Mobility as a Service (MaaS) has gained ground and has become a concrete market option ensuring a transition from the existing property-based transport system to a use-based system. MaaS meets the transport needs of users through a single interface of a service provider by combining different modes of transport to provide a tailor-made mobility offer. This approach places the user at the center of mobility issues. The innovations involved in urban mobility are technological but also social and organizational. They are multi-actor and require coordination of each actor involved in the value chain to develop and disseminate these innovations. We are thus talking about innovation in a business ecosystem. To date, like any innovation, MaaS is a source of uncertainty for markets and surrounded by ambiguities. Moreover, MaaS deployments are mainly concentrated in developed countries with efficient public transport systems. However, we believe that MaaS is modular, adaptable, and applicable to a variety of realities (including a wide variety of public-private transport systems). Based on this research, this Ph.D. thesis aims to analyze the concept of MaaS in order to identify its implementation and acceptance within an urban mobility system. The results of our work indicate that the MaaS system can be based on the theoretical tripod of “Product-Service System (PSS),” "business ecosystem", and "eco-innovation." Also, we propose that MaaS can be thought of not only as a transport concept, phenomenon, or solution but also as a business model. Therefore, we propose that MaaS should be oriented towards the value proposition of users, within addition, a reflection based on the successful dissemination of MaaS in southern countries. In order to take its place in the urban mobility of the future, MaaS must be considered as a modular and adaptable economic model, applicable to all contexts (the efficiency - or inefficiency - of public transport must not be limited). To this end, the MaaS business model must be established as part of a systemic rethinking around the mobility ecosystem, and sustainability should not be considered as an intrinsic characteristic of a MaaS model. This innovative ecosystem business model is oriented towards consumer acceptance (user-centric innovation) and acceptance of existing transport modes that fit the specific context established. We will broaden our analysis of the conditions of development and diffusion of the autonomous vehicle within a MaaS at the socio-political level. In this sense, shared and connected AVs must be considered as one among several elements of the urban mobility ecosystem.

Keywords: Mobility as a Service; Autonomous Vehicles; Urban Mobility.

RÉSUMÉ GÉNÉRAL

Compte tenu des pressions environnementales existantes, de l'importance de la sécurité routière et des contraintes réglementaires croissantes, la mobilité dans les villes est une préoccupation majeure pour les collectivités et les citoyens. Dans ce contexte, les innovations technologiques basées sur l'utilisation généralisée de véhicules connectés et partagés, l'émergence des Véhicules Autonomes (VA) imposent une réflexion sur la définition de la mobilité urbaine durable dans les villes du futur. A coté des transports traditionnels se développe des solutions individuelles (autopartage, mobilité douce, navette autonome…) qui doivent s’insérer dans un système global de mobilité urbaine. En ce sens, le concept de Mobilité comme Service (MaaS) a gagné du terrain et est devenu une option de marché concrète assurant une transition du système de transport basé sur la propriété existant vers un système basé sur l'usage. MaaS répond aux besoins de transport des utilisateurs via une interface unique d'un fournisseur de services en combinant différents modes de transport pour proposer une offre de mobilité sur mesure. Cette approche place l'utilisateur au centre des questions liées à la mobilité. Les innovations engagées dans la mobilité urbaine sont technologiques mais aussi sociales et organisationnelles. Elles sont multi-acteurs et nécessitent une coordination de chaque acteur impliqué dans la chaine de valeur pour développer et diffuser ces innovations. Nous parlons ainsi d’innovation dans un écosystème d’affaires. A ce jour, comme toute innovation, le MaaS est source d’incertitudes pour les marchés et entouré d’ambiguïtés. De plus, les déploiements MaaS sont principalement concentrés dans les pays développés dotés de systèmes de transport public efficaces. Or, nous pensons que le MaaS est modulaire, adaptable et applicable à plusieurs réalités (dont des systèmes public-privé de transport très variés). Sur la base de ces recherches, cette thèse de doctorat vise à analyser le concept de MaaS pour identifier sa mise en œuvre et son acceptation au sein d’un système de mobilité urbaine. Les résultats de nos travaux indiquent que le concept de MaaS peut avoir comme fondement le trépied théorique de système produit-service (PSS), de « l'écosystème d’affaires » et de « l’éco-innovation ». Aussi, nous proposons que le MaaS puisse être pensé non seulement comme un concept, un phénomène ou une solution de transport, mais aussi comme un modèle d’affaires. Nous proposons alors que le MaaS soit orienté vers la proposition de valeur des utilisateurs, avec une réflexion appuyée sur les modalités de diffusion réussie du MaaS dans les pays du sud. Afin de prendre place dans la mobilité urbaine du futur, le MaaS doit être considéré comme un modèle économique modulaire et adaptable, applicable à tous les contextes (l'efficacité - ou l'inefficacité - des transports publics ne doit pas être limitative). Pour cela, le modèle commercial du MaaS doit être établi dans le cadre d’une réflexion systémique autour de l’écosystème mobilité, et la durabilité ne doit pas être considérée comme une caractéristique intrinsèque d'un modèle MaaS. Ce modèle économique d'écosystème innovant est orienté vers l'acceptation des consommateurs (innovation centrée-usagers) et des modes de transport existant qui correspondent au contexte spécifique établi. Nous élargirons notre analyse des conditions de développement et diffusion du véhicule autonome au sein d’un MaaS au niveau socio-politique. En ce sens, les VA partagés et connectés doivent être considérés comme un, parmi plusieurs éléments de l'écosystème de la mobilité urbaine.

General Introduction

GENERAL INTRODUCTION

The present study addresses the issue of the Future of Urban Mobility in the context of Autonomous Vehicles and Mobility as a Service (MaaS) as an Innovative Ecosystemic Business Model. This introductory section is composed of the contextualization and motivation to the study, the research question, the objectives and the justifications of research. Finally, the doctoral thesis structure is discussed.

Research Contextualization and Motivation

Nowadays, around 54 percent of the world’s population is currently living in urban areas (Population Reference Bureau, 2016), with estimates of a 66 percent by 2050 when the world’s population expects to reach nine billion people (Fournier, 2017; EEA, 2013). In this sense, with the continuing global trend of urbanization and the growing demand for transportation, urban mobility poses significant challenges for the future.
To address these challenges is essential to look closely at the transportation sector, which, for most of its history, has remained mostly unchanged (Karlsson et al. 2016; Kamargianni and Matyas, 2016). It is predicted that the need for transportation will rise, resulting in a more significant increase in noise and air pollution, overloaded infrastructure, and congestion. Furthermore, contemporary transport practices are increasingly compromising the well-being of existing populations. Hence, there is a consensus among authors in the study-field that changes are needed (Mulley, 2017; Kamargianni et al., 2016).’
Among the many changes foreseen for the transport paradigm (Mulley, 2017), the arrival of new information and communication technologies (ICTs) increasingly promote the development of business concepts for more efficient use of vehicles, optimization of the transport network, better use of infrastructure and seamless commute (Kamargianni and Matyas, 2016).
Therefore, it is held that technology changes will make the future of mobility occur.
For Saddi (2018), three factors must be considered: 1) data collection, 2) autonomous (and electric) vehicles, and 3) multimodal transport. Also, Kuhnert & Stirmer (2017), states that the car of the future will be EASCY, that is: Electrified, Autonomous, Shared, Connected, and Yearly updated. For the relations established among these factors, we understand that they have to be analyzed together as part of a unique ecosystem. Thus, we believe that these new mobility trends are concomitant with the generalization of the service economy in which owning a car will no longer be seen as a priority for users, particularly for urban citizens.
In this sense, the concept of Mobility as a Service (MaaS) has been gaining ground in recent years and becoming a solid market option, by presenting a shift away from the existing ownership-based transport system toward an access-based one (Jittrapirom et al., 2017; Ambrosino et al. 2016; Mulley, 2017; Kamargianni et al., 2016).

    Autonomous Vehicle, Sensing and Communication Survey Edited and submitted by Shraga Shoval Prepared by Shlomi Hacohen and Oded Medina Department of Mechanical Engineering, Ariel University, Ariel, Israel. August 2020 Abstract Autonomous vehicles introduce dramatic changes to the way in which we travel. This technology has the potential to impact the transportation across a wide array of categories including safety, congestion, and travel behavior. In this report we review the main issues involved in autonomous driving as discussed in the literature and shed light on topics that we believe require further development. 1 Introduction The challenges in autonomous driving require a combination of many capabilities, among them: localization, motion planning, vehicle’s systems control (steering, acceleration/deceleration, signaling, etc.), road perception, prediction of other road-users behavior, awareness of dangers, etc. These capabilities have a various level of importance for various levels of driving automation. Even though the first autonomous vehicle (AV) was experimented in 1926 [104], a real-modern autonomous vehicle was first presented in 1986 by a team from Carnegie Mellon University [58]. Since 2010, many major automotive manufacturers, such as GM, Mercedes Benz, Ford, Toyota, and many more are developing AVs [90]. A demonstration of AV equipped with numerous sensors and communication systems was presented by Toyota in 2013 [10]. In 2016, Google’s AV has passed over one million kilometers. These events present a glimpse to the landmarks in the development of AV that, due to the complexity of the task, progresses slowly with considerable amount of attention to safety and reliability. AVs need a large amount of data for reliable decision making.

I would like to thank and acknowledge my mother, Maria, and my sister, Ka Lang for providing me with love and support; my advisor, Peter Timmerman, and my supervisor, Laura Taylor, for providing me with academic and non-academic support; and my invaluable friends that I have made in the MES program for their encouragement, support and relief. i Foreword My Area of Concentration for my Plan of Study is sustainable transportation planning for growth management. Connected and Autonomous Vehicles will change the urban landscape, the roles of governments and present new challenges to planners. This paper has allowed me to view transportation planning through the lens of emerging technologies and how this affects cities in the short and long term. There are many sustainability and growth management implications with Connected and Autonomous Vehicles. For example, automated vehicles can foster decentralization because it easily enables travel however, if utilized correctly, automated vehicles can also compliment local transit systems to support intensification. This is especially important in Ontario (Canada’s first province to allow testing of autonomous vehicles on public roads) as it directly relates to the goals and policies related to sprawl and sustainability as outlined in Ontario’s four provincial land use plans: The Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe (GGH), The Greenbelt Plan, The Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan and the Niagara Escarpment Plan.

To this end, this study proposes a new simulation- 22 based framework to forecast Americans’ long-term (year 2015 to 2045) adoption levels of CAV 23 technologies under eight different scenarios based on: 5% and 10% annual drops in technology 24 prices; 0%, 5%, and 10% annual increments in Americans’ willingness to pay (WTP); and 25 changes in government regulations. This simulation was calibrated with the data obtained from a 26 survey of 2,167 Americans, in order to obtain their preferences for CAV technologies and their 27 household’s annual vehicle transaction decisions. 28 29 Results indicate that the average WTP (of respondents with a non-zero WTP) to add connectivity 30 and Level 3 and Level 4 automations are $110, $5,551, and $14,589, respectively. Long-term 31 fleet evolution suggests that the privately held light-duty vehicle fleet will have 24.8% Level 4 32 AV penetration by 2045 under an annual 5% price drop and constant WTP values.

The architecture of the autonomy system of self-driving cars is typically organized into Occupancy grid mapping the perception system and the decision-making system. The perception system is generally divided into many Road mapping subsystems responsible for tasks such as self-driving-car localization, static obstacles mapping, moving obstacles Moving objects detection Moving objects tracking detection and tracking, road mapping, traffic signalization detection and recognition, among others. The Traffic signalization detection decision-making system is commonly partitioned as well into many subsystems responsible for tasks such as Traffic signalization recognition route planning, path planning, behavior selection, motion planning, and control.
