Abstract Recent development in wireless technology enables communication between vehicles. The concept of co-operative adaptive cruise control (CACC)--which uses vehicles--aims at string stable behavior a platoon "String stability" means any non-zero position, speed, and acceleration errors an individual vehicle do not amplify when they propagate upstream. In this article, we will discuss the stability CACC evaluate its performance under varying packet loss ratios, beacon sending...

Vehicular networks (VANETs) are a growing research area with large number of use cases. Foreseen applications include safety applications, traffic efficiency enhancements, and infotainment services. To make future deployment successful, it is imperative that all matched proper security mechanisms. Current proposals mostly focus on entity authorization by establishing public key infrastructure. Such proactive efficiently excludes nonauthorized entities from the network. However, in face...

Currently most of the mobility management solutions rely on a centralized anchor entity, which is in charge both mobility-related control plane and user data forwarding. This makes prone to several performance limitations such as suboptimal routing, low scalability, potential single point failure lack granularity for service. Distributed Mobility Management (DMM) solution that can be applied overcome these limitations. In this paper we introduce novel Software Defined Networking...

Several promising applications for Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANETs) exist. For most of these applications, the communication among vehicles is envisioned to be based on broadcasting messages. This due inherent highly mobile environment and importance messages nearby. To deal with broadcast communication, dissemination protocols must defined in such a way as (i) prevent so-called storm problem dense networks (ii) disconnected sparse topologies.

While non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) improves spectral efficiency, it adds complexity to the receivers due successive interference cancellation (SIC). Prior studies on energy efficiency of NOMA overlook SIC overhead and rely simplistic power consumption models (PCM). To fill this gap, we first introduce PCM- <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$\kappa $ </tex-math></inline-formula> that...
