Über dieses Buch

This brief examines recent developments in the Heterogeneous Vehicular NETworks (HETVNETs), integrating cellular networks with Dedicated Short-Range Communication (DSRC) for meeting the communications requirements of the Intelligent Transport System (ITS)services. Along with a review of recent literature, a unified framework of the HetVNET is presented. The brief focuses on introducing efficient MAC mechanisms for vehicular communications, including channel access protocols, broadcast/multicast protocols, the location-based channel congestion control scheme and the content-based resource allocation scheme. The cooperative communication between vehicles is discussed.

This brief concludes with a discussion on future research directions, and provides the readers with useful insights into the future designs in the HetVNETs, to motivate new ideas for performance improvements in vehicular networks.

Chapter 1. Introduction
Abstract
The Heterogeneous Vehicular NETwork (HetVNET) is an important and timely topic, which is largely motivated by the fact that each type of current wireless networks not only offers its unique benefits, but also has its own drawbacks. Therefore, different from existing studies in the literature, this book focuses specifically on various services that can be provisioned by HetVNETs. In this chapter, we first present the motivations of the HetVNET after a short overview on the existing vehicular networks. Then, an analysis on the service and user case for the Intelligent transportation system (ITS) is given. The aim of the monograph is provided finally.

Chapter 2. Architecture of Heterogeneous Vehicular Networks
Abstract
Due to the high mobility of vehicles and the dynamic topology changes of Vehicular Ad hoc NETwork (VANET), it is difficult to provide satisfied ITS services only through a single wireless network. Consequently, by integrating different wireless access networks such as LTE and DSRC, the HetVNET is expected to be a good platform that can meet various demanding communications requirements of ITS services. In this chapter, we first present a framework of the HetVNET [1]. Several HetVNET candidate communications techniques are then discussed for comparison purposes.

Chapter 3. Efficient MAC Mechanisms for Heterogeneous Vehicular Networks
Abstract
The Medium access control (MAC) layer provides a variety of functions that support the operation of wireless networking. In general, the (MAC) layer manages and maintains communications between either vehicles or vehicle-to-infrastructure by coordinating access to a shared radio channel and utilizing protocols that enhance communications over a wireless medium. This chapter addresses several important issues of MAC layer in vehicular networks, and focuses primarily on channel access control and broadcasting mechanisms. This chapter is organized as follows: Sect. 3.1 presents an overview of channel access protocols in vehicular networks reported in the literatures. Then, the broadcast/multicast protocols are discussed briefly in Sect. 3.2. Section 3.3 presents a location-based channel congestion control mechanism. Finally, insights and discussions are given in Sect. 3.4.

Chapter 4. Resource Allocation in Heterogeneous Vehicular Networks
Abstract
Vehicular networks are facing an overwhelming growth in data traffic demands recently. However, radio resources in wireless networks infrastructures have not been fully exploited, resulting in low quality of services for vehicle users. As a result, efficient radio resource allocation schemes for HetVNETs are in urgent demand. In this chapter, we first present a brief overview on radio resource allocation in vehicular networks. Then, Sect. 4.2 presents a new content-based resource scheduling mechanism. A Bipartite graph (BG)-based cooperative scheduling scheme is also studied in Sect. 4.3, followed by concluding remarks of the chapter in Sect. 4.4.

Chapter 5. Conclusion and Outlook
Abstract
This monograph aims to elaborate that wireless communications networks can be utilized to provide ubiquitous ITS services with guaranteed QoS. The requirements of safety and non-safety services are summarized and compared. Based on the proposed framework of the HetVNET, current wireless networking technologies for vehicular communications are discussed in detail. The discussions on channel access and cooperative resource allocation mechanisms emphasize on the feasibility and efficiency of the HetVNET. It is concluded that the HetVNET is the most suited solution for supporting vehicular services, which requires collaboration between various communications infrastructure.
