Multi-Radio 5G Architecture for Connected and Autonomous Vehicles: Application and Design Insights
Journal Title: EAI Endorsed Transactions on Industrial Networks and Intelligent Systems - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 13
Abstract
Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAVs) will play a crucial role in next-generation Cooperative Intelligent Transportation Systems (C-ITSs). Not only is the information exchange fundamental to improve road safety and efficiency, but it also paves the way to a wide spectrum of advanced ITS applications enhancing efficiency, mobility and accessibility. Highly dynamic network topologies and unpredictable wireless channel conditions entail numerous design challenges and open questions. In this paper, we address the beneficial interactions between CAVs and an ITS and propose a novel architecture design paradigm. Our solution can accommodate multi-layer applications over multiple Radio Access Technologies (RATs) and provide a smart configuration interface for enhancing the performance of each RAT.

Information seeking behaviour and purchasing decision: case study in digital cameras
This case study explores the information seeking behaviour of digital camera consumers based on Assael’s consumer information acquisition and processing model. 135 responses were received from potential target group who...
Inpainting large missing regions based on Seam Carving
Inpainting techniques are developed to recover missing image information. Existing inpainting approaches are: Partial Differential Equations Based Inpainting (PDE-BI) and Exemplar-Based Inpainting (EBI). PDE-BI methods u...
SMC-I with Approach Angle Method for Slip Suppression of Electric Vehicles
This study presents SMC-I (sliding mode control with integral action) with approach angle method applied to slip suppression problem of electric vehicles (EVs). In SMC, chattering phenomenon always occurs through high fr...
Using Finite Forkable DEVS for Decision-Making Based on Time Measured with Uncertainty
The time-line in Discrete Event Simulation (DES) is a sequence of events defined in a numerable subset of R+. When it comes from an experimental measurement, the timing of these events has a limited precision. This preci...
Outage Performance of a Two-branch Cooperative Energy-constrained Relaying Network with Selection Combining at Destination
In this paper, we investigate two-branch cooperative DF relaying networks with selection combining at the destination. Two intermediate relay-clusters (a conventional relay cluster and an energy-constrained relay cluster...
