Abstract In this paper, in a highway scenario, the network connectivity problem is considered and developed a mathematical model to investigate the vehicles steady-state probability of connectivity in a one-directional road segment with one underpass. In the mathematical model, on the road the underpass is equally dispersed and distribute the road into two segments. The vehicles arrival follow Poisson process, on each segment. A vehicle drives towards the underpass with a specified probability. On the basis of these assumptions, we study various situations based on position distribution of the underpass, also takes into account the speed of vehicles, arrival rate of vehicles, impact of road length, and the probability of the vehicles driving towards the underpass and leave, in deriving the probability of connectivity. The derived mathematical model is validated over simulation results and the effects of numerous factors on the probability of connectivity are examined by both analytical and simulation results
