Inter-vehicle communication (IVC) enables vehicles to exchange messages within a limited broadcast range and thus self-organize into dynamical vehicular ad hoc networks. For the foreseeable future, however, a direct connectivity between…
We are on the verge of a new age of linked autonomous cars with unheard-of user experiences, dramatically improved air quality and road safety, extremely varied transportation settings, and a plethora of cutting-edge apps. A substantially…
Ultra-reliable vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication is essential for enabling the next generation of intelligent vehicles. V2X communication is a growing area of communication, that connects vehicles to neighboring vehicles (V2V),…
As mission-critical (MC) services such as Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) based emergency communication and Internet of Vehicles (IoVs) enabled autonomous driving emerge, the traditional communication framework can not meet the growing…
Due to the recent re-allocation of the 5.9 GHz band by the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC), it will be inevitable that dedicated short-range communications (DSRC) and cellular vehicle-to-everything (C-V2X), two representative…
The anticipated increase in the number of plug-in electric vehicles (EV) will put additional strain on electrical distribution circuits. Many control schemes have been proposed to control EV charging. Here, we develop control algorithms…
Vehicular Ad-hoc Network (VANET) is a subset of Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) enabling communication between vehicles for safety, traffic updates, entertainment, and data sharing. Due to the high mobility in VANETs, routing messages to…
Critical urban events take places at a random way and they need to be dealt with by public authorities quickly to maintain the proper operation of cities. The main challenges for an efficient handling of an event fall precisely in its…
Actions taken immediately following a life-threatening personal health incident are critical for the survival of the sufferer. The timely arrival of specialist ambulance crew in particular often makes the difference between life and death.…
Vulnerable Road User (VRU) safety has been an important issue throughout the years as corresponding fatality numbers in traffic have been increasing each year. With the developments in connected vehicle technology, there are new and easier…
Recent advances on human dynamics have focused on the normal patterns of human activities, with the quantitative understanding of human behavior under extreme events remaining a crucial missing chapter. This has a wide array of potential…
In this paper, we document a design, implementation, and field tests of a vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication-enabled rail collision avoidance system (RCAS) for urban light rail vehicles---trams. The RCAS runs onboard a tram and issues…
Delivery of broadcast messages among vehicles for safety purposes, which is known as one of the key ingredients of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), requires an efficient Medium Access Control (MAC) that provides low average delay…
Vehicular ad-hoc networks have been defined in the literature as communications networks that allow disseminating information among vehicles to help to reduce traffic accidents and congestions. The practical deployment of such networks has…
We explore a new approach to radio resource allocation for vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications in case of out-of-coverage areas that are delimited by network infrastructure. By collecting and predicting information such as vehicle…
In this paper, a collision avoidance system is presented to detect red light running and warn nearby vehicles and pedestrians in real time in order to prevent possible accidents. No complex infrastructure-based solution such as those based…
Intentional interference constitutes a major threat for communication networks operating over a shared medium where availability is imperative. Jamming attacks are often simple and cheap to implement. In particular, today's jammers can…
A warning system for assisting drivers during overtaking maneuvers is proposed. The system relies on Car-2-Car communication technologies and multi-agent systems. A protocol for safety overtaking is proposed based on ACL communicative acts.…
Distributed medium access control (MAC) protocols are proposed for wireless networks assuming that one-hop peers can periodically exchange a small amount of state information. Each station maintains a state and makes state transitions and…
This paper introduces a novel cooperative vehicular communication algorithm tailored for future 6G ultra-massive vehicle-to-everything (V2X) networks leveraging integrated space-air-ground communication systems. Specifically, we address the…
