Free Download Cognitive Radio-based Internet of Vehicles: Architectures, Applications and Open issues
English | 2025 | ISBN: 1032257555 | 217 Pages | PDF (True) | 10 MB
The incorporation of Cognitive Radio (CR) into the Internet of Vehicles (IoV) has emerged as the Intelligent Transportation System (ITS). Section 1 covers the aspects of cognitive radio when it provides support to IoV. The challenges which limit the performance of ITS are highlighted in this chapter. These issues include unreliable delivery, the dynamic topology of IoV, routing overhead, scalability, and energy, to name a few. The issues can be considered as future research directions for a promising intelligent transportation system. Machine learning (ML) is a promising discipline of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to train the CR-based IoV system so that it can make decisions for improved spectrum utilization. The ML-enabled IoV systems can better adapt to the dynamically changing environment. Section 2 covers the applications of ML techniques to the CR-IoV systems and highlights their issues and challenges. Section 3 covers the examination of ML in conjunction with Data Science applications which further widens the scope of the readership. In CR-IoV, ML and Data Science can be collaboratively used to further enhance road safety through inter-vehicle, intra-vehicle, and beyond-vehicle networks.

Free Download Automated Vehicles as a Game Changer for Sustainable Mobility: Learnings and Solutions by Guy Fournier, Adrian Boos, Dimitri Konstantas, Danielle Attias
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2024 | 522 Pages | ISBN : 3031616804 | 111.5 MB
This book explores a vision for a sustainable future in urban mobility through the AVENUE project, showcasing full-scale demonstrations of automated minibuses in European cities. AVENUE pioneers on-demand, door-to-door services, challenging traditional fixed bus itineraries. It delves into the implementation of automated vehicles, emphasizing safety, services, cybersecurity, and accessibility. Part two evaluates the economic, environmental, and social impacts on companies, citizens, and cities. By integrating automated vehicles into Mobility-as-a-Service and Intelligent Transport Systems, the book argues for the using of automated vehicles as game changer towards a transformative shift to sustainable, citizen-centric mobility. It advocates for efficiency, flexibility, and resilience of the transport system without imposing coercive transformation policies.
