V2V-Assisted V2I MmWave Communication for Cooperative Perception with Information Value-Based Relay

Millimeter-wave (mmWave) vehicular communication is a key technology that enables autonomous vehicles to collaborate in environment perception, thereby improving traffic efficiency and safety to a new level. Many recent works have focused on relay-based solutions to overcome the inherent defects of mmWave, such as the severe path loss and its sensitivity to blockages. However, the selfishness of the vehicles is often ignored. Considering the application-oriented nature of vehicular communication, we propose an information value-based relay strategy for mmWave vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) transmission in this paper. Specifically, the vehicles are allowed to make relay decisions based on the evaluation of the value of messages from their own perspectives. To this end, a simple relay probability model based on the required awareness range is introduced. Through the use of stochastic geometry to model the vehicular network, the outage performance is analyzed and the results are validated by simulations. Impacts of both network and application related parameters on the outage performance are investigated. These preliminary results laid the foundation for the further expansion of the information value-based relay strategies to a wider range of network settings

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
