“…For example, as shown in Fig. 1, the wind or solar-powered RSUs can be installed in rural freeway scenarios without connection to the smart grid [43], [44]. By utilizing the big data based or AI-based power, mobile traffic and vehicle trajectory forecasting techniques, a better matching is possible between renewable energy utilization and workload arrivals over time and space.…”

“…In addition, the renewable energy has also been applied to support other common IoV infrastructures for saving energy, such as the solar-powered RSUs [44] and windpowered RSUs [43]. The conventional RSUs are deployed with connections to the power lines and wired backhauls, which is not feasible in areas with under-developed power systems.…”

As one of the most promising applications in future Internet of Things, Internet of Vehicles (IoV) has been acknowledged as a fundamental technology for developing the Intelligent Transportation Systems in smart cities. With the emergence of the sixth generation (6G) communications technologies, massive network infrastructures will be densely deployed and the number of network nodes will increase exponentially, leading to extremely high energy consumption. There has been an upsurge of interest to develop the green IoV towards sustainable vehicular communication and networking in the 6G era. However, as a special mobile ad-hoc network, the energy cost in an IoV system involves the communication and computation energy in addition to the fuel consumption and the electricity cost of moving vehicles. Moreover, the energy harvesting technology, which is likely to be adopted widely in 6G systems, will complicate the optimization of energy efficiency in the entire system. Current studies focus only on part of the energy issues in IoV systems without a comprehensive discussion of the state-of-the-art energy-efficient approaches and the influence of the development of 6G networks on green IoV. In this paper, we present the main considerations for green IoV from five different scenarios, including the communication, computation, traffic, Electric Vehicles (EVs), and energy harvesting management. The literatures relevant to each of the scenarios are compared from the perspective of energy optimization (e.g., with respect to resource allocation, workload scheduling, routing design, traffic control, charging management, energy harvesting and sharing, etc.) and the related factors affecting energy efficiency (e.g., resource limitation, channel state, network topology, traffic condition, etc.). In addition, we introduce the potential challenges and the emerging technologies in 6G for developing green IoV systems. Finally, we discuss the research trends in designing energy-efficient IoV systems.

“…The inevitability of these challenges has compelled researchers and the industry to explore new technologies and strategies which are not only able to meet the unprecedented bandwidth and connectivity demand, but are also energy efficient. The use of renewable sources of energy such as wind or solar power proves to be an economic and attractive option that gives these devices complete independence [4]. Global environmental concerns associated with conventional energy generation have led to increase in the development of renewable alternative energy sources in power systems.…”

Abstract-In this paper, we propose a rate adaptive technique for wind powered standalone (off-grid) roadside units (RSUs) in a motorway environment. In a non-rate adaptive system, the transient nature of renewable wind energy causes the RSUs to either transmit at full data rate or not transmit at all based on the availability of sufficient energy. In rate adaptation, the data rate of an RSU adapts according to the available energy. Further, the RSU saves transmission energy by operating at a lower data rate, even when enough energy is available. The saved energy, in turn, is used to maintain the data rate during energy deficiency, thereby minimizing outage and improving the quality of service (QoS). The performance analysis shows that the wind energy dependent rate adaptive RSU delivers a more energy efficient service with acceptable quality compared to a non-rate adaptive deployment in a renewable energy solely powered RSU. The proposed rate adaptive algorithm can be as well deployed to wind-powered communication base stations (BSs) and sensor networks.
