Multi-Connectivity Management for 5G V2X Communication
2019
With the advent of automated driving functions the need for cooperation among vehicles becomes increasingly necessary. The availability of high quality connectivity is an important factor for successful and uninterrupted cooperative and autonomous services. Flexible selection of available connectivity options, increases the probabilities to achieve and maintain the required Quality of Service (QoS). Future vehicles will support multiple 5G communication interfaces e.g., cellular (Uu), sidelink (PC5). A 5G RAN-based solution is proposed in this paper to dynamically select and change the communication interface that is suitable for a V2X service, considering radio and road conditions. The com…
Signaling Reduction in 5G eV2X Communications Based on Vehicle Grouping
2019
Groups of users, sometimes referred to as clusters, have been exploited in several works to enhance wireless communications. Leveraging on previous ideas, the main goal of this paper is to take advantage of vehicle grouping in order to reduce uplink signaling in fifth generation (5G) vehicular communications. Several schemes to reduce uplink signaling are proposed and particularized in two specific 5G uses cases: the reporting of Channel Busy Ratio (CBR), and the reporting of beam measurements in beam management procedures. The achieved signaling reduction is analytically evaluated in an example of urban scenario with high vehicle densities for different group sizes. The signaling load can …
5G V2V Communication With Antenna Selection Based on Context Awareness: Signaling and Performance Study
2022
Enhanced vehicle-to-everything (eV2X) communication is one of the key challenges to be addressed by the fifth generation (5G) of cellular mobile communications. In particular, eV2X includes some 5G vehicular applications targeting fully autonomous driving which require ultra-high reliability. Although vehicular communications are by default assumed between single antennas located on the roof of the transmitter and receiver vehicles, prior art has shown that there are other antenna positions more suitable for V2X communication, depending on the specific communication context. Antenna selection can be used in this case to select one specific antenna or a subset of them better suited for a cer…
5G Functional Architecture and Signaling Enhancements to Support Path Management for eV2X
2019
Enhanced vehicle-to-everything (eV2X) communication is one of the most challenging use cases that the fifth generation (5G) of cellular mobile communications must address. In particular, eV2X includes some 5G vehicular applications targeting fully autonomous driving which require ultra-high reliability. The usual approach to providing vehicular communication based on single-connectivity transmission, for instance, through the direct link between vehicles (PC5 interface), often fails at guaranteeing the required reliability. To solve such a problem, in this paper, we consider a scheme where the radio path followed by eV2X messages can be proactively and dynamically configured to either trans…
