“…Marletto reviewed 20 studies concerning the potential future impact of AVs and found that while increased road safety is nearly universally agreed, the magnitude and type of impact (i.e. positive or negative) on congestion, GHG emissions and energy consumption will depend on a broad range of factors 78 . These factors include transport mode (e.g.…”

The Role of 5G Technologies: Challenges in Smart Cities and Intelligent Transportation Systems

2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The new mobile technology, 5G, challenges the current scenario in communications by overcoming the flaws of currently working 4G. Such new technology offers to smart cities and intelligent transportation systems a new way to become fully integrated by allowing massive simultaneous connections and ubiquity of network, even under high mobility situations or dense populated areas. In this way, 5G will become a key enabler for real Internet of Things and its corresponding Internet of Vehicles. This discussion is aimed at providing, in a comprehensive manner, how 5G technology will impact on smart cities, intelligent transportation systems –including autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicles– and vehicular communications, its technical, economic and legal challenges, in the following years.

“…In summary, the focus of sustainable mobility research evolved as follows: the first generation was primarily on production travel, the second generation was broadened to include reproduction travel and finally the third generation was broadened further to include leisure-time travel. Though not categorized as travel categories per se, the fourth generation of sustainable mobility studies includes three new developments relevant for this dimension, i.e., shared mobility [71,72], autonomous vehicles [73][74][75][76], and electromobility [77,78].…”

Sustainable Mobility at Thirty

It is now almost three decades since the concept of ‘sustainable mobility’ first appeared in the 1992 EU Green Paper on the Impact of Transport on the Environment. This paper reviews the literature and reflects on how societies’ understanding and interpretation of the concept of sustainable mobility has evolved. We track this evolution over six dimensions: research and policy, transport impacts and categories, scientific disciplines, methodological approach, and research questions. From this review we assert that the mainstream understanding and interpretation of sustainable mobility can be grouped into four generations of studies. The first generation of studies (1992–1993) were techno-centric and focused on how to limit transport’s negative environmental impacts by improving then-existing technology. The second, third and fourth generations of studies (1993–2000, 2000–2010 and 2010–2018 respectively) increasingly acknowledge the limitations of preceding efforts to achieve sustainable mobility, and open for a more diverse set of alternatives. These studies have gradually become more interdisciplinary in nature—reflecting the inter-relatedness of mobility with all other aspects of society. We conclude that despite the ensuing elevation of mobility into the holistic picture society, we still have not achieved a sustainable mobility system. Furthermore, what is much needed now, more than ever, is a bold set of new narratives.
