Title: New algorithms for the simplification of multiple trajectories under bandwidth constraints

Abstract: This study introduces time-windowed variations of three established trajectory simplification algorithms. These new algorithms are specifically designed to be used in contexts with bandwidth limitations. We present the details of these algorithms and highlight the differences compared to their classical counterparts.
To evaluate their performance, we conduct accuracy assessments for varying sizes of time windows, utilizing two different datasets and exploring different compression ratios. The accuracies of the proposed algorithms are compared with those of existing methods. Our findings demonstrate that, for larger time windows, the enhanced version of the bandwidth-constrained STTrace outperforms other algorithms, with the bandwidth-constrained improved version of \squish also yielding satisfactory results at a lower computational cost. Conversely, for short time windows, only the bandwidth-constrained version of Dead Reckoning remains satisfactory.
