Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

As the most important component of future intelligent transportation systems, the Internet of Vehicles (IoV) is one of the most important technologies for achieving smart traffic and convenient travel for people. With the rapid development of IoV, vehicular communication and sensing techniques have recently drawn much attention. With the vigorous development and mutual integration of sensing and communication functions, advanced vehicular communication technologies, vehicular sensing technologies, and integrated vehicular sensing and communication technologies have become research hotspots in IoV, holding significant importance for the development of future intelligent transportation systems.

This Special Issue aims to put together original research and review articles on recent advances, technologies, solutions, applications, and new challenges in the field of vehicular communication and sensing technologies.

Topics of interest for publication include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Advanced vehicle-to-vehicle communications;
  • Advanced high-speed railway communications;
  • Advanced unmanned aerial vehicle communications;
  • Advanced underwater vehicular communications.
  • Advanced vehicular sensing techniques;
  • Sensing-assisted vehicular communication techniques;
  • Communication-assisted vehicular sensing techniques;
  • Integrated vehicular sensing and communication techniques.
