Vehicular Communications

Vehicular communications is a growing area of communications between vehicles and including roadside communication infrastructure. Advances in wireless communications are making possible sharing of information through real time communications between vehicles and infrastructure. This has led to applications to increase safety of vehicles and communication between passengers and the Internet. Standardization efforts on vehicular communication are also underway to make vehicular transportation safer, greener and easier. The aim of the journal is to publish high quality peer–reviewed papers in the area of vehicular communications. The scope encompasses all types of communications involving vehicles, including vehicle–to–vehicle and vehicle–to–infrastructure. The scope includes (but not limited to) the following topics related to vehicular communications: Vehicle to vehicle and vehicle to infrastructure communications Channel modelling, modulating and coding Congestion Control and scalability issues Protocol design, testing and verification Routing in vehicular networks Security issues and countermeasures Deployment and field testing Reducing energy consumption and enhancing safety of vehicles Wireless in–car networks Data collection and dissemination methods Mobility and handover issues Safety and driver assistance applications UAV Underwater communications Autonomous cooperative driving Social networks Internet of vehicles Standardization of protocols.

Vehicular communications 是车辆之间通信的一个不断增长的领域，包括路边通信基础设施。无线通信的进步使得通过车辆和基础设施之间的实时通信共享信息成为可能。 这催生了提高车辆安全性以及乘客与互联网之间通信的应用。车辆通信标准化工作也在进行中，以使车辆运输更安全、更环保、更便捷。 该期刊的目标是发表车辆通信领域的高质量同行评审论文。范围涵盖涉及车辆的所有类型的通信，包括车辆对车辆和车辆对基础设施的通信。
