“…This paper complements and extends the works [9] by presenting in Section II a compreensive and detailed analysis of standardised architectures currently used in ITS, justifying the need for an agnostic approach, leading to real C-ITS application integration. In Section III the proposed architecture, and each one of its main modules and associated functions, are described with special emphasis on the ITS-LCI interface that exposes the vehicles' available services to any third party application developers.…”

“…In this paper we describe a new approach on communications architectures for C-ITS, firstly introduced in [9] by the same authors, that intends to open up the development process of C-ITS applications and services to a larger community of software makers while keeping safety and security on all critical ITS environments. The underlying strategy is to adapt existing communications models defined by the most important standardisation institutions into a more modular architecture that could be more easily adopted by the manufacturers and still be open to integration of independent application level software.…”

Abstract-A Vehicular Adhoc Network (VANET) is a generic conceptualisation that can be applied to the communications domain of an Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). It defines requirements that allow the exchange of information between applications and services running on equipment that form a VANET, mainly moving vehicles, fixed road infrastructure's systems and mobile personal devices. In this unique and demanding environment, interoperability is attained through the use of specific wireless communications technologies and protocols. The great heterogeneity on the capabilities of the interconnected devices, the scale of the number of devices that could be involved, the various degrees of density and the complexity on the mobility patterns, makes interoperability at the application level a challenging problem. This paper presents an agnostic VANET architecture, adapted from ETSI and ISO modern standards, to be deployed on ITS as a mean to overcome those limitations. This new approach fosters the use of different communication technologies and network/transport protocol stacks in an open and modular framework, facilitating the creation of ITS cooperative applications and services, using traditional network programming paradigms where applications use the available medium transparently. The usefulness and versatility of the proposed architecture have been illustrated by means of two different applications that have been taken from simulation scenarios into use cases, really deployed on top of commercially available On Board Units.

“…The technological architecture is being expanded to allow long‐range (more than 1 km) extended communication layers and multi‐data sending technologies combining AV sensing and mapping data [29]. The IEEE 802.11p amendment to the IEEE 802.11 standard defines wireless access in vehicular environments, a vehicular communication system that supports ITS applications.…”

“…Other benefits include usage of personal mobile devices for deploying VANETs without having to acquire new equipment for vehicles [98], device-to-device (D2D) with V2V pairs for IoV networks [63] and network coding [23], [122]. Furthermore, studies have introduced the advantages of a centralised approach in highly dynamic VANETs [120], which allows exchange of information among moving vehicles [13], [14], [126] using fast association and low communication latency of the uplink channel in cellular systems [68], [79], [103]; these studies have also evaluated the transmission performance of V2X communication on the basis of the variance of speed nodes [101]. Other benefits related to V2V interoperability provide all information required of connected vehicles through vehicular networks.…”

Data exchange in Vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications systems is a field that requires automated solutions, tools and methods and the capability to facilitate early detection and even a prediction. Many studies have focused on V2V system and its classification to improve road safety, reduce traffic congestion and help streamline the vehicle flow on the road. This study aims to review and analyse literature related to data exchange in V2V communications systems. The factors considered to improve the understanding of the field's various contextual aspects were derived from published studies. We systematically searched all articles about the classification and detection of data exchange in vehicles, as well as their evaluation. Three main databases, namely, ScienceDirect, Web of Science and IEEE Xplore from 2008 to 2018, were used. These indices were considered sufficiently extensive to encompass our literature. On the basis of our inclusion and exclusion criteria, 140 articles were selected. Most articles (53/140) are studies conducted in a V2V communication system; a number of papers (51/140) covered the actual attempts to develop V2V communications; and few papers (18/140) comprised framework proposals and architectures. The last portion (18/140) of articles presented review and survey articles. V2V collision avoidance system, which is a field requiring automated solutions, tools and methods, entails the capability to facilitate early detection. Several studies have been performed on the automatic detection of V2V and their subtypes to promote accurate detection. The basic characteristics of this emerging field are identified from the aspects of motivations, open challenges that impede the technology's utility, authors' recommendations and substantial analysis of the previous studies are discussed based on seven aspect (devices, number of scenario, test location, types of sensors, number of vehicle, evaluation techniques used and types of software). A propose research methodology as new direction is provided to solve the gaps identified in the analysis. This methodology consists of four phases; investigation, develop a hardware system, study and analysis, and evaluation phases. However, research areas on V2V communication with the scope of data exchange are varied. This systematic review is expected to open opportunities for researchers and encourage them to work on the identified gaps.
