EE Department Head was Invited by Texas A&M University at Qatar to Give a Talk

EE Department Head was invited by Texas A&M University at Qatar to give a talk in the field of vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to-everything (V2X) on September 29th, 2019. Title and abstract of the talk are given below:

Title:
WWW: World Wide Wheels—A Paradigm Shift for Transportation Systems via xG

Abstract:
Vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communications are two prominent platforms of a broader concept called V2X for next generation wireless networks (NGWNs) from the perspective of both transportation safety/security and green infrastructures. In case V2V and V2I communications are established, transportation will become safer by the collaborative effort of vehicles and infrastructures via collision avoidance systems, emergency warning protocols, autonomous cars, and so on. Transportation will become greener via V2V and V2I
communications as well. Carbon footprints will be reduced by routing optimizations, traffic congestion avoiding navigation, platooning, and traffic information systems. As can be inferred, NGWNs will be the ultimate enabling technology for such envisions. In this talk, V2X communications and their relationship with NGWNs will be discussed in detail. Both theoretical and practical aspects along with critical problems and proposed solutions will be provided. Future horizons will be given as well.
