Abstract

<p>Information floating (IF) is an invisible infrastructure in which mobile nodes can receive information that seems to be floating in a designated area. IF is realized by successively transferring information from a mobile node to other nodes in an epidemic manner with wireless direct communication in designated areas. IF has many potential applications, such as advertisements for local communities, specific communication for disasters, alert systems for pedestrians and vehicles, and so on. To design alert systems on a road, some articles theoretically analyze the mean lifetime of the floating in a one-dimensional street. In past researches, however, identical traffic volume and velocity were assumed in all the lanes. The difference in traffic volume between lanes and the correlation between traffic volume and velocity were omitted for simplicity. In this paper, we recognize the importance of these two factors and reveal their effects on the mean lifetime of IF with a new theoretical method. In it, we consider not only the effects of the above two factors but also the complicated features of IF that were ignored in previous methods.</p>
