Abstract: A vehicle platoon incentive mechanism and system based on a double auction, a device, and a medium are provided. A highway system is conceived, where vehicles can be platooned and transmits their information to a controller. The controller searches for an optimal vehicle platoon to maximize a benefit of the vehicle platoon and redistribute the benefit among members in the vehicle platoon through a incentive mechanism to motivate a driver or a vehicle owner to form and maintain the optimal vehicle platoon. The incentive mechanism resolves a benefit conflict between vehicles through the benefit redistribution, thereby promoting formation of a stable and efficient vehicle platoon. The vehicle platoon incentive mechanism will make up for insufficient research on the vehicle platoon incentive mechanism. This mechanism can determine leader-follower positions and associated benefits, offering a potential solution to the instability in platooning behavior.
