*****************************************************************************************************
Vehicular communications and intelligent transportation systems aim to
improve traffic safety, protect environment by reducing traffic congestion
and fuel consumption, and enable a plethora of new applications such as
mobile infotainment. To address the special requirements of both safety and
non-safety applications in the vehicle domain, there is a necessity to
develop new communication technologies and find special integration
solutions into vehicular and transportation systems. These result in various
types of vehicular communications and networks: vehicle-toinfrastructure,
vehicle-to-roadside, and vehicle-to-vehicle communications. In this growing
interdisciplinary field, many research challenges need to be addressed,
e.g., how to characterize communication channels due to greater dynamics and
higher requirements due to e.g. latency and reliability compared to
conventional wireless channels, how to appropriately design medium access
control (MAC) and network protocols that should essentially be scalable in
performance and adaptable to environment changes due to rapid network
topology changes and node density fluctuations, and how to evaluate and
validate vehicular networking protocols under realistic assumptions using
simulation methodologies and real-world testing. The goal of this special
issue is to report on cutting-edge research achievements covering those
aspects of vehicular communications and networks that are distinctively
different from communication networks in general. We are seeking papers that
describe high-quality, original, and unpublished contributions. Possible
topics include, but are not limited to:
· Adoption and adaptation of web technologies
· Application protocols and service architectures
· Channel measurement, modeling, & simulation
· Domain-specific security and privacy solutions
· Inter-networking technologies and architectures
· MAC technologies and channel management
· Multiple radio integration and control
· Physical layer and RF level technologies
· Radio resource management, congestion control, traffic control,
routing, and QoS support
· Real-time experimental systems and testbeds
· RF integration and SDR technologies
· Safety and non-safety applications and services
· Simulation methodology and performance evaluation techniques
· Delay tolerant networks
· Energy efficient communications
· Traffic and mobility models
