Abstract

While the wireless-vehicle combination intends to increase the efficiency of link-level and network-level data transmissions to fulfill the communication requirements in vehicular applications, the wireless-vehicle integration focuses on exploring the core functions of vehicles that are evolving more and more towards being highly intelligent and electrified. Surrounding the core vehicle functions, in this chapter, the requirements on the supporting wireless infrastructure and how to achieve these requirements will be discussed from the wireless-vehicle integration perspective. Specifically, we will focus on some interesting VCN-based vehicular applications including electric vehicles, distributed data storage, and physical layer security. As for the next leap, VCN-based autonomous driving is also discussed.
