“…In addition, enhanced vehicular message dissemination is also expected to transform the future of electric vehicles (EVs), which are the automotive industry's response to address fossil fuel depletion and environmental pollution [26]. It is anticipated that 6G V2X will significantly improve both the driving efficiency and battery efficiency of EVs.…”

“…Parameter identification and its timely exchange between the agents can be executed using various sensors and a suitable communication infrastructure. A detailed review is conducted in [1] on various technologies utilized for the communication towards the management of EV charging and its coordination. A reliable, high throughput, less latency communication infrastructure is required to exchange data like battery state of charge (SoC), waiting time and energy price between EVCS and EV.…”

Exploiting Renewable energy to the maximum extent possible in an electric vehicle charging station (EVCS) is the key in supporting the anticipated carbon reduction from the electric vehicles (EVs). Knowing the expected load and the solar energy in advance at the EVCS can be crucial in framing a proper energy management strategy. Selection of suitable parameters associated with the participating EVs and EVCS are vital in utilizing them for predicting the probable EV load and expected solar energy for a given period under consideration. A prototype EVCS with smart communication infrastructure is developed considering solar pv as the energy source. Real time communication of the parameters between multiple agents has been established effectively using an interactive website, cloud server and an short message service (SMS) application programming interface (API). The data generated from the prototype models have been utilized in a random forest regression (RFR) classifier model in order to predict the probable solar energy and the expected EV load for every minute duration. The integrated communication frame work is found to be less complex to implement for an autonomous direct current (DC EVCS). The details provided at the graphical user interface (GUI) designed at the EVCS can be instrumental in developing a proper energy management strategy.

“…The concept of an IoEV leverages on the capabilities of vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) by defining each EV as an intelligent entity that communicates with other surrounding entities using V2X communications, to ultimately establish a framework for reliable EV charging coordination and effective demand management. Accordingly, the key requirements of V2X communications in an IoEV are high-speed communications, ultra-low latency and ultra-high reliability, particularly for DWC systems due to their relatively short charging durations compared with static charging [21][22][23]. Different V2X communication technologies are addressed in the literature, including Dedicated Short Range Communication (DSRC), cellular-V2X (C-V2X) and 5G-V2X communications [24,25], each of which offers different features to address the different requirements for effective EV communication and coordination in an IoEV [21].…”

A heterogeneous network integrating the different radio access technologies (RATs) with other 5G advanced technologies such as MIMO, mmWaves and D2D communications, further improves the capabilities of vehicular communications in an IoEV and helps satisfy the requirements of the different use cases in terms of throughput, reliability, latency, security and quality-of-service (QoS).…”

Dynamic wireless charging (DWC) is a promising technology to charge Electric Vehicles (EV) using on-road charging segments (CS), also known as DWC pads. In order to ensure effective utilization of this on-the-road charging service, communication and coordination need to be established between the EVs and the different network entities, thereby forming an Internet of Electric Vehicles (IoEV). In an IoEV, EVs can utilize different V2X communication modes to enable charging scheduling, load management, and reliable authentication and billing services. Yet, designing an authentication scheme for dynamic EV charging presents significant challenges given the mobility of the EVs and the short contact time between the EVs and the charging segments. Accordingly, this work proposes a fast, secure and lightweight authentication scheme that allows only authentic EVs with valid credentials to charge their batteries while ensuring secure and fair payments. The presented scheme starts with a key pre-distribution phase between the charging service company (CSC) and the charging pad owner (PO), followed by a hash chain and digital signature-based registration and authentication phase between the EV and the CSC, before the EV reaches the beginning of the charging lane. These preliminary authentication phases allow the authentication between the EVs and the charging segments to be performed using simple hash key verification operations prior to charging activation, which reduces the computational cost of the EVs and the CS. Symmetric and asymmetric key cryptography are utilized to secure the communication between the different network entities. Analysis of the computational and transmission time requirements of the proposed authentication scheme shows that, for an EV traveling at 60 km/h to start charging at the beginning of the charging lane, the authentication process must be initiated at least 1.35 m ahead of the starting point of the lane as it requires ≃81 ms to be completed.
