IET Communications (formerly IEE Proceedings Communications) Special Issue on "Vehicular Ad Hoc and Sensor Networks"
Recently there is a strong interest in developing networking techniques and important applications for moving vehicles, to enable wireless communication between roadside and vehicles or between vehicles. Vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) and vehicular sensor networks (VSNs) using all kinds of wireless technologies has recently received considerable attention.
The goal of this special issue is to explore the development of vehicular ad hoc and sensor network technologies about communication, networking, and applications. Topics of primary interest include, but are not limited to:
- Roadside-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-vehicle communication - Communication protocol - Channel modeling - Modulation and coding - Power control and scalability issues - Multi-channel organization and operation - Security issues - MAC protocol - Routing protocol - Mobility management - Network management - Safety and non-safety applications - Simulation frameworks & real-world testbeds
