Abstract
This project report provides a holistic record of the development of a connected autonomous vehicle simulation framework incorporating a physics simulator and a communication simulator. The development of this tool aims to help researchers in vehicle communication protocols to evaluate the simulated performance of their solutions in the physical world. By using this tool, communication researchers can observe the impact of their communication protocols on the actual connected autonomous vehicle operation process without the need to delve into the underlying logic of vehicle kinematic simulation. They only need to configure simple parameters and deploy their own protocols on the communication simulator and see the effect. This project report will start by introducing the components and operating principles of the entire system, and then demonstrate its usage through a simple simulation example.
