In the first stage, the passive BD-RIS is designed to minimize the aggregate interference power at all receivers, a cost function called interference leakage (IL). To this end, we propose an optimization algorithm in the manifold of unitary matrices and a suboptimal but computationally efficient solution. In the second stage, users' active precoders are designed under different criteria such as minimizing the IL (min-IL), maximizing the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (max-SINR), or maximizing the sum rate (max-SR). The residual interference not cancelled by the BD-RIS is treated as noise by the precoders. Our simulation results show that the max-SR precoders provide more than <inline-formula><tex-math>$20%$</tex-math></inline-formula> sum rate improvement compared to other designs, especially when the BD-RIS has a moderate number of elements and users transmit with high power, in which case the residual interference is still significant.","PeriodicalId":34270,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Open Journal of Vehicular Technology","volume":"6 ","pages":"1005-1017"},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10943135","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143850876","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For sensing applications, the reflectivity of objects between Transmitter (TX) and Receiver (RX) is crucial. It is normally modeled as a uniform scatterer or a group of uniform scatterers in wireless channels. These models do not take into account the dependence of reflectivity on the aspect angles of incident and scattering waves, the composed material, and the geometry of the objects. Therefore, we model the reflectivity of target vehicles using their bistatic Radar Cross Section (RCS), as in radar sensing, within a Vehicle to Vehicle (V2V) setup under the Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC) framework. Moreover, we consider constant and variable bistatic Target Reflectivity (TR) integrated setups with two diverse traffic scenarios. These traffic scenarios are modeled to be realistic, with diverse geometrical road layouts, variable vehicle velocities, distinct vehicle positions, and the presence of Diffuse (DI) scattering components. Then, we inspect the impact of the bistatic TR on the behavior of the wireless channel and target detection capability. The variable TR integrated setup leads to a more accurate realization of the scenario, leading to outcomes that closely resemble real-world conditions. The results show the substantial impact of the geometrical setup on the distribution of TR, which emphasizes the need to integrate TR into ISAC-enabled V2V channel models.","PeriodicalId":34270,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Open Journal of Vehicular Technology","volume":"6 ","pages":"948-968"},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10938128","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143830467","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Visible-spectrum cameras provide a rich source of information and are cost-effective compared with other sensors; however, their performance can degrade under adverse environmental conditions. Despite the general consensus that the object detection performance in computer vision is adversely affected by rain, there is a relative lack of research investigating this relationship in detail. This study investigates the performance of object detection under rain conditions, focusing on algorithm performance and low-level object characteristics. Using the publicly available BDD100 k dataset, this study examines object detection performance across multiple deep-learning object detection architectures, analyzing error types and image characteristics under rain and no rain conditions. In addition, statistical methods were used to compare image-level metrics to determine statistical significance. The results reveal that rain is not detrimental to object detection performance, and in some cases, better performance is observed. For some models, medium-sized objects experience improved detection and classification under rain conditions, while large objects experience a slight decline in performance. The error analysis shows an increase in localization errors and a decrease in classification errors. The object-level analysis revealed statistically significant changes in the contrast-to-noise ratio, entropy, mean pixel value, pixel variance, hue, saturation, and value, with hue and saturation experiencing the most significant changes. This study highlights the need for more detailed weather labeling in datasets to fully understand the nuances of the relationship between rain and object detection.","PeriodicalId":34270,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Open Journal of Vehicular Technology","volume":"6 ","pages":"1018-1032"},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10937197","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143856345","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Ensuring reliable communication for UAM aircraft is of paramount importance in maintaining operational safety. To that end, we use stochastic geometry tools to analyze the joint uplink-downlink coverage probability of an integrated aerial-terrestrial heterogeneous network (HetNet) for UAM aircraft, specifically electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) vehicles. We assume eVTOLs travel on predefined air corridors which are modeled as a Poisson line process (PLP). Furthermore, we model the spatial distribution of eVTOLs as a Matern hardcore process (MHCP) with a designated safety distance. We model the aerial base stations (ABSs) as a two-dimensional (2D) binomial point process (BPP), and the terrestrial base stations (TBSs) as a 2D Poisson point process (PPP). We use a suitable air-to-ground channel model to include line-of-sight (LOS) and non-line-of-sight (NLOS) transmissions. In the paper, we derive distance distributions to the closest ABS, LOS TBS, and NLOS TBS to a typical eVTOL, then we provide the association probability of each BS. Furthermore, we characterize the uplink interference and derive Laplace transforms for the PLP-MHCP distributed eVTOLs.

Traditional accident management methods heavily rely on manual reporting, which can be sometime inefficient and error-prone resulting in valuable life loss. This paper proposes a novel framework that integrates autonomous aerial systems (drones) with advanced deep learning models to enhance real-time accident detection and response capabilities. The system not only dispatch the drones but also provide live accident footage, accident identification and aids in coordinating emergency response. In this study we implemented our system in Gazebo simulation environment, where an autonomous drone navigates to specified location based on the navigation commands generated by Large Language Model (LLM) by processing the emergency call/transcript. Additionally, we created a dedicated accident dataset to train YOLOv11 m model for precise accident detection. At accident location the drone provides live video feeds and our YOLO model detects the incident, these high-resolution captured images after detection are analyzed by Moondream2, a Vision language model (VLM), for generating detailed textual descriptions of the scene, which are further refined by GPT 4-Turbo, large language model (LLM) for producing concise incident reports and actionable suggestions. This end-to-end system combines autonomous navigation, incident detection and incident response, thus showcasing its potential by providing scalable and efficient solutions for incident response management. The initial implementation demonstrates promising results and accuracy, validated through Gazebo simulation. Future work will focus on implementing this framework to the hardware implementation for real-world deployment in highway incident system.","PeriodicalId":34270,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Open Journal of Vehicular Technology","volume":"6 ","pages":"829-845"},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10918802","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143777883","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While various considerations and risk assessment frameworks have been discussed in recent years, there is a notable lack of TARA models specifically designed for heavy-duty (HD) vehicles. The security considerations and vulnerabilities in HD vehicles differ significantly from those in light-duty (LD) vehicles, leading to different security impacts and varying attack feasibility. This makes existing models inadequate for accurately assessing risks in the context of HD vehicles. This study introduces a novel risk assessment model tailored for HD vehicles, addressing gaps in existing TARA frameworks such as EVITA, HEAVENS, and ISO/SAE 21434. The key contribution of this work lies in the customization of impact and feasibility metrics within the ISO/SAE framework to better account for the unique security challenges posed by HD vehicles. Unlike prior models, this approach adapts the impact criteria to reflect the diverse range of security concerns specific to HD vehicles, which have been inadequately addressed in existing frameworks. Additionally, through a comprehensive analysis of threat vectors and vehicle interfaces, the model refines feasibility criteria, ensuring a more accurate and context-aware assessment of security risks. By adopting these enhancements, the proposed model offers more precise risk assessments that align with HD vehicle considerations, helping to prioritize threats and make optimal decisions regarding risk treatment.","PeriodicalId":34270,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Open Journal of Vehicular Technology","volume":"6 ","pages":"969-990"},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10921673","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143830529","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
