A review on autonomous electric vehicle communication networks-progress, methods and challenges

Abstract

Electric vehicles have gained significance owing to its unavoidable supporting factors including environmental impacts and climate features. It has been noticed over last few decades that the increased number of manufacturers have focused on electric propulsion-based technology either pure electric or hybrid form with the support of electric vehicles in the automotive market. The adoption of these electric vehicle has obviously increased its competitive nature while compared to traditional internal combustion engine system. Moreover, the electric vehicles (EVs) possess substantial potential, not only in minimizing carbon emission but also in assisting required energy storage to contribute to the distributed renewable generation. There exist several increases in electric vehicle usage, but their level of massive adoption and existence by automotive consumers is connected with its delivered performance. One such important feature is the autonomous electric vehicle communication networks. This research provides a comprehensive review on overview of the electric vehicles and will discuss various existing works on autonomous driving vehicles. The paper compares existing communication networks and nuances associated in the context of an autonomous electric vehicle. Also, it critiques the existing technology and provides suggestive future work in the field to make communication networks resilient. An extensive review makes it possible to ascertain future research directions in the EV research field, which would result in massive future and instantaneous EV perception in the automotive market.

Review of Self-Driving Cars – Technologies, Standards and Safety

“…The successful development of these areas is necessary for achieving full autonomy. Higher levels of automation require more advanced sensors, better hardware, and improved software to ensure safe driving under different conditions and speeds [8]. The Autonomous Vehicle Inputs will specifically focus on the sensors used by autonomous vehicles, including LiDAR, radar, ultrasonic sensors, camera's, etc.…”

Electric vehicle charging state predictions through hybrid deep learning: A review

“…The results show that the proposed model achieves high accuracy and robustness in predicting the charging state of EVs under various conditions. Similarly, in [6], the authors propose a hybrid SVM-ANN model for EV charging state prediction. The proposed model combines the strengths of SVMs and ANNs to capture both the non-linear relationships and temporal dependencies between the charging data and the charging states.…”

Examining Effective Battery Management Systems for Electric Vehicles-a Review Analysis

“…The energy output is typically measured in watt-hours (Wh), while the energy input is measured in watt-hours per hour (Wh/h). The efficiency is then calculated as the ratio of energy output to energy input, expressed as a percentage [23][24][25][26].…”
