Intelligent QV2X Routing for Traffic Management in Consumer IoV Using STGNN and Reinforcement Learning

Abstract

In the Consumer Internet of Vehicles (CIoV), reliable and timely data communication is essential for enhancing driver experience and safety. This paper introduces an innovative QV2X routing strategy that uses Spatio-Temporal Graph Neural Networks (STGNN) and Q-learning to optimize packet traffic in CIoV. By predicting network conditions and adapting to real-time data flows, our approach directly addresses consumer needs for efficient data transmission, reduced communication delays, and improved infotainment access. The integration of predictive models with adaptive learning mechanisms not only optimizes packet delivery but also minimizes latency and packet loss, critical for consumer applications like real-time navigation assistance and hazard warnings. Our key contribution is a dynamic packet traffic management system designed for consumer use, enhancing network reliability and efficiency for everyday vehicle users. Experimental results validate that our model surpasses existing benchmarks by improving packet delivery ratios by up to 15% and reducing end-to-end delays by up to 20% in urban traffic scenarios. This advancement demonstrates our strategy’s effectiveness in enriching consumer experiences and safety in vehicular communications.
