Abstract
Vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communications have emerged as an indispensable component of the Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), fostering innovations that enhance road safety and traffic efficiency. Within this transformative landscape, vehicle platooning has been identified by the Cellular-V2X (C-V2X) standards as an advanced V2X use case with the potential to reshape the future of ITS. However, the stringent requirements of such applications necessitate an optimized spectrum efficiency. Consequently, Radio Resource Allocation (RRA) has emerged as a critical and central component in addressing this challenge. This paper provides a comprehensive examination of RRA tailored specifically to the context of vehicle platooning. It presents an overview of fundamental concepts, including V2X communications, vehicle platooning, and RRA standards, which is followed by an in-depth review of the state-of-the-art, categorized based on the underlying communication technologies, RRA modes, and coverage conditions. By analyzing the existing literature, this paper identifies several key research challenges and potential opportunities, offering insightful guidance for shaping future research in this field.
期刊介绍:
IEEE Communications Surveys & Tutorials is an online journal published by the IEEE Communications Society for tutorials and surveys covering all aspects of the communications field. Telecommunications technology is progressing at a rapid pace, and the IEEE Communications Society is committed to providing researchers and other professionals the information and tools to stay abreast. IEEE Communications Surveys and Tutorials focuses on integrating and adding understanding to the existing literature on communications, putting results in context. Whether searching for in-depth information about a familiar area or an introduction into a new area, IEEE Communications Surveys & Tutorials aims to be the premier source of peer-reviewed, comprehensive tutorials and surveys, and pointers to further sources. IEEE Communications Surveys & Tutorials publishes only articles exclusively written for IEEE Communications Surveys & Tutorials and go through a rigorous review process before their publication in the quarterly issues.
A tutorial article in the IEEE Communications Surveys & Tutorials should be designed to help the reader to become familiar with and learn something specific about a chosen topic. In contrast, the term survey, as applied here, is defined to mean a survey of the literature. A survey article in IEEE Communications Surveys & Tutorials should provide a comprehensive review of developments in a selected area, covering its development from its inception to its current state and beyond, and illustrating its development through liberal citations from the literature. Both tutorials and surveys should be tutorial in nature and should be written in a style comprehensible to readers outside the specialty of the article.
