Abstract

Network latency is a crucial factor affecting the quality of communications networks due to the irregularity of vehicular traffic. To address the problem of performance degradation or instability caused by latency in vehicular networks, this paper proposes a time delay prediction algorithm, in which digital twin technology is employed to obtain a large quantity of actual time delay data for vehicular networks and to verify autocorrelation. Subsequently, to meet the prediction conditions of the ARMA time series model, two neural networks, i.e., Radial basis function (RBF) and Elman networks, were employed to construct a time delay prediction model. The experimental results show that the average relative error of the RBF is 7.6%, whereas that of the Elman-NN is 14.2%. This indicates that the RBF has a better prediction performance, and a better real-time performance than the Elman-NN.
