Summary
Device‐to‐device (D2D) enables direct communication between Vehicle‐to‐Everything (V2X) devices. For V2X communications, efficient power control and radio sub‐channel allocation schemes are expected to accommodate the growing demand for data traffic of the increasing number of vehicular devices. We propose to investigate the resource allocation problem for V2X networks. We categorize vehicle user equipment (VUEs) into safety and non‐safety VUEs and cellular user equipment (CUEs) into real‐time and non‐real‐time CUEs according to their communication types. The objective of the proposed model is to maximize the total throughput of the system while maintaining quality of service (QoS) for CUEs and VUEs. Chaotic Grey Wolf Optimization (CGWO) algorithm, a meta‐heuristic and evolutionary algorithm, is used to solve the resource allocation problem in V2X communications. Finally, comparisons between the proposed scheme and two other meta‐heuristic algorithms, namely, Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and GWO for resource allocation, are carried out. The simulation results prove the effectiveness and performance of the proposed scheme in terms of resource allocation for V2X. They also demonstrate that CGWO‐based resource allocation scheme outperforms both PSO‐based and GWO‐based resource allocation schemes in terms of total achieved throughput.
The Deployment of new techniques to accommodate high data throughput, significant reliability, and quality of service (QoS) delivery prompts the use of 4G and 5G networks in several applications. In these networks, Vehicle‐to‐Everything (V2X) communications authorised by device‐to‐device cellular links (D2D) have gained momentum because of their potential to improve road safety, efficiency, and convenience. This improvement is to be provided by different types of V2X communications, including Vehicle‐to‐Pedestrian (V2P), Vehicle‐to‐Vehicle (V2V), Vehicle‐to‐Infrastructure (V2I), and Vehicle‐to‐Network (V2N) communications. However, considering several limiting factors such as mobility and increasing number of vehicles, efficiency of using wireless resources is a challenging task. Indeed, different research works on V2X radio resource allocation have been studied and evaluated with respect to several criteria. In this study, a survey of recent works but in a different way synthesising radio resource allocation methods is presented. Resource allocation classification into different categories is proposed. This classification is related to three main factors. The first takes into account the selection mode factor. It highlights the use of different approaches in each of the centralised, distributed, and mixed modes. The second one takes into account the considered performance criteria, including capacity, priority, delay etc. The last one focuses on the methods and scenarios used to evaluate a resource allocation approach.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
