Introduction

Zheng, Kan; Zhang, Lin; Xiang, Wei; Wang, Wenbo

Pages: 1 –8

[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,...

Architecture of Heterogeneous Vehicular Networks

Zheng, Kan; Zhang, Lin; Xiang, Wei; Wang, Wenbo

Pages: 9 –24

[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...

Efficient MAC Mechanisms for Heterogeneous Vehicular Networks

Zheng, Kan; Zhang, Lin; Xiang, Wei; Wang, Wenbo

Pages: 25 –46

[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...

Resource Allocation in Heterogeneous Vehicular Networks

Zheng, Kan; Zhang, Lin; Xiang, Wei; Wang, Wenbo

Pages: 47 –77

[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...

Conclusion and Outlook

Zheng, Kan; Zhang, Lin; Xiang, Wei; Wang, Wenbo

Pages: 79 –82

[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...
