Interference Analysis for Vehicle-to-Vehicle Communications at 28 GHz
High capacity and ultra-reliable vehicular communication are going to be important aspects of beyond 5G communication networks. However, the vehicular communication problem becomes complex at a large scale when vehicles are roaming on the road, while simultaneously communicating with each other. Moreover, at higher frequencies (like 28 GHz), the dynamics of vehicular communication completely shift towards unpredictability and low-reliability. These factors may result in high packet error and a large amount of interference, resulting in regular disruptions in communications. A thorough understanding of performance variations is the key to moving towards the next generation of vehicular networks. With this intent, this article aims to provide a comprehensive interference analysis, wherein the closed-form expressions of packet error probability (PEP) and ergodic capacity are derived. Using the expression of the PEP, diversity analysis is provided which unveils the impact of channel nonlinearities on the performance of interference-constrained vehicular networks. The insights provided here are expected to pave the way for reliable and high capacity vehicular communication networks
Vehicle Communication using Secrecy Capacity
We address secure vehicle communication using secrecy capacity. In
particular, we research the relationship between secrecy capacity and various
types of parameters that determine secrecy capacity in the vehicular wireless
network. For example, we examine the relationship between vehicle speed and
secrecy capacity, the relationship between the response time and secrecy
capacity of an autonomous vehicle, and the relationship between transmission
power and secrecy capacity. In particular, the autonomous vehicle has set the
system modeling on the assumption that the speed of the vehicle is related to
the safety distance. We propose new vehicle communication to maintain a certain
level of secrecy capacity according to various parameters. As a result, we can
expect safer communication security of autonomous vehicles in 5G
communications.Comment: 17 Pages, 12 Figure
End to End Performance Analysis of Relay Cooperative Communication Based on Parked Cars
Parking lots (PLs) are usually full with cars. If these cars are formed into
a self-organizing vehicular network, they can be new kind of road side units
(RSUs) in urban area to provide communication data forwarding between mobile
terminals nearby and a base station. However cars in PLs can leave at any time,
which is neglected in the existing studies. In this paper, we investigate relay
cooperative communication based on parked cars in PLs. Taking the impact of the
car's leaving behavior into consideration, we derive the expressions of outage
probability in a two-hop cooperative communication and its link capacity.
Finally, the numerical results show that the impact of a car's arriving time is
greater than the impact of the duration the car has parked on outage
probability.Comment: 7 pages, 7 figures, accepted by ICACT201
SymbioCity: Smart Cities for Smarter Networks
The "Smart City" (SC) concept revolves around the idea of embodying
cutting-edge ICT solutions in the very fabric of future cities, in order to
offer new and better services to citizens while lowering the city management
costs, both in monetary, social, and environmental terms. In this framework,
communication technologies are perceived as subservient to the SC services,
providing the means to collect and process the data needed to make the services
function. In this paper, we propose a new vision in which technology and SC
services are designed to take advantage of each other in a symbiotic manner.
According to this new paradigm, which we call "SymbioCity", SC services can
indeed be exploited to improve the performance of the same communication
systems that provide them with data. Suggestive examples of this symbiotic
ecosystem are discussed in the paper. The dissertation is then substantiated in
a proof-of-concept case study, where we show how the traffic monitoring service
provided by the London Smart City initiative can be used to predict the density
of users in a certain zone and optimize the cellular service in that area.Comment: 14 pages, submitted for publication to ETT Transactions on Emerging

An Efficient Requirement-Aware Attachment Policy for Future Millimeter Wave Vehicular Networks
The automotive industry is rapidly evolving towards connected and autonomous
vehicles, whose ever more stringent data traffic requirements might exceed the
capacity of traditional technologies for vehicular networks. In this scenario,
densely deploying millimeter wave (mmWave) base stations is a promising
approach to provide very high transmission speeds to the vehicles. However,
mmWave signals suffer from high path and penetration losses which might render
the communication unreliable and discontinuous. Coexistence between mmWave and
Long Term Evolution (LTE) communication systems has therefore been considered
to guarantee increased capacity and robustness through heterogeneous
networking. Following this rationale, we face the challenge of designing fair
and efficient attachment policies in heterogeneous vehicular networks.
Traditional methods based on received signal quality criteria lack
consideration of the vehicle's individual requirements and traffic demands, and
lead to suboptimal resource allocation across the network. In this paper we
propose a Quality-of-Service (QoS) aware attachment scheme which biases the
cell selection as a function of the vehicular service requirements, preventing
the overload of transmission links. Our simulations demonstrate that the
proposed strategy significantly improves the percentage of vehicles satisfying
application requirements and delivers efficient and fair association compared
to state-of-the-art schemes.Comment: 8 pages, 8 figures, 2 tables, accepted to the 30th IEEE Intelligent
