------------------ Wireless Communications and Mobile Computing (Wiley Publication)
Special Issue: Emerging Techniques for Wireless Vehicular Communications ------------------ Wireless vehicular communications have attached much attention for improving road safety, intelligent management and data exchange services, and providing Internet access on the move to ensure wireless pervasive and ubiquitous connectivity. Throughout the world, many national or international projects in government, industry, and academia have been devoted to the establishment of ambitious research programs, such as the European eSafety initiative, the German Ministry of Education and Research sponsored Wheels project, the US programs derived from the Intelligent Vehicle Initiative, and the Japanese InternetITS and AHS programs.
The field of wireless vehicular communications can be typically identified as vehicle-to-person communications, vehicle-to-infrastructure communications, vehicle-to-vehicle communications, and vehicular communication networks. The combination of unique features of wireless vehicular communications and networking issues opens new opportunities for many interesting research areas, for example, real time safety applications, and intelligent diver information services. In order for universal realization of wireless vehicular communications, many research challenges still need to be addressed to create good-performance, highly scalable, robust and secure vehicular technologies.
------------------ Topics ------------------ The aim of this special issue is to present a collection of high-quality research papers that report the latest research advances and surrey the-state-of-the-art in this fast developing field. Original papers are solicited in all aspects of vehicular communications, including physical layer issues, architectures, protocol designs, enabling technologies, theoretical studies, practical applications, and experimental prototypes. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
*Architectures for wireless vehicular communications *RF technologies and antenna design *Channel measurements and modeling *Signal processing techniques *Physical and MAC layer technologies *Radio resource management and QoS support *High-speed mobility management *Routing protocols and congestion control schemes *Cross-layer design and optimization *Ad-hoc networks and other novel network configurations *Security and authentication issues in vehicular communications *Doppler shift study, evaluation and estimate, time and frequency synchronizations, and channel estimation *Cognitive radio and dynamic spectrum access technologies *Digital maps and location technologies *In-car electronics and embedded integration for wireless vehicular communications *Regulation and business models *Testbed, experiment, implementation standards, and practical applications
