Slicing-aware aerial networks for integrated sensing and communication
Integration of sensing and communication (ISAC) is pivotal for realizing the full spectrum of 6G networks, where aerial networks composed of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) emerge as significant enhancers by establishing line-of-sight connections and increasing the coverage of terrestrial networks. Although network slicing can cater to diverse ISAC applications, strategies … [Read more...] about Slicing-aware aerial networks for integrated sensing and communication
Digital Twin and Artificial Intelligence-Empowered Panoramic Video Streaming: Reducing Transmission Latency in the Extended Reality-Assisted Vehicular Metaverse
The vehicular metaverse is expected to provide a widely connected virtual Internet of Vehicles (IoV), where extended reality (XR) is one of the critical infrastructures. However, the combination of XR and automated vehicle (AV) networks brings several significant challenges, e.g., low-latency XR panoramic video transmission, high bandwidth, and the high mobility of vehicles. … [Read more...] about Digital Twin and Artificial Intelligence-Empowered Panoramic Video Streaming: Reducing Transmission Latency in the Extended Reality-Assisted Vehicular Metaverse
Toward 6G Vehicle-to-Everything Sidelink: Nonorthogonal Multiple Access in the Autonomous Mode
The cellular vehicle-to-everything (C-V2X) sidelink technology, specified in the long-term evolution (LTE) and further improved in the 5G new radio (NR) standards to facilitate direct data exchange between vehicles, will play a crucial role in revolutionizing transportation systems. However, the demand for very high reliability and ultralow latency services especially … [Read more...] about Toward 6G Vehicle-to-Everything Sidelink: Nonorthogonal Multiple Access in the Autonomous Mode
Deep Reinforcement Learning-Based Resource Management for Flexible Mobile Edge Computing: Architectures, Applications, and Research Issues
In this article, we introduce autonomous vehicle-assisted mobile edge computing (AV-MEC), including unmanned ground vehicle (UGV)- and unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-assisted MEC, where the UAV/UGV can be deployed and carry the computing server to serve ground mobile devices (MDs). We first discuss applications and main research problems. Then, deep reinforcement learning … [Read more...] about Deep Reinforcement Learning-Based Resource Management for Flexible Mobile Edge Computing: Architectures, Applications, and Research Issues
