  • As the intelligent technologies continuously develop, the transportation system is shifting toward autonomous and unmanned operation modes. To clarify the technical characteristics and functional advantages of autonomous transportation systems (ATS) at different autonomy levels, this paper deconstructs ATS into five layers of the system, scenario, function, technology, and service by quantifying the generational evolution standards of ATS, evaluating system topology, and simulating and analyzing the generational evolution paths of ATS. Meanwhile, in terms of the linkages between traffic scenarios, traffic entities, and traffic services, it employs the quantized values of technological types and their development levels required by each function as the link cost, and proposes a hierarchical evolvable architecture model for ATS based on classical network theory. Finally, by taking the priority passage service under road intersection scenarios as an example, the interaction relationship between ATS traffic entities, functional realization, and information flow is analyzed in depth by calibrating the link cost via questionnaires. The results show that increasing interoperable linkages can significantly improve the autonomy level of ATS, with the key milestone for full autonomy being “human participation reduced to less than 10%”. The proposed hierarchical evolvable architecture model provides a quantitative analysis framework for ATS generational evolution, filling the gap of existing theories in system-level dynamic evolution modeling. The findings can assist transportation authorities in ATS development planning and provide a quantitative basis for priority setting in technological research and development.
