SPD-HARM + Q-WARN + CACC:
The Benefits of Bundling
43
•The three INFLO applications are closely linked. 
•By deploying them in concert, the effectiveness of each is improved:
•SPD-HARM benefits Q-WARN by slowing and managing upstream traffic, thus reducing the risk of secondary collisions •CACC benefits SPD-HARM by providing a mechanism for harmonizing traffic flow and reducing or mitigating acceleration variability •Q-WARN benefits CACC by providing the platoon sufficient notification of an impending queue to effectively manage a response
•The following example illustrates how all three applications used in conjunction can help minimize the impact of a freeway incident on traffic flow…
