The field of connected vehicles stands at the confluence of three evolving disciplines – the Internet of Things (IoT), emerging standards for connectivity of vehicles, and AI/machine learning. The number of connected IoT devices is forecast to grow from 9.5 billion devices in 2019 to 55 billion connected devices, according to more optimistic assessments. Consequently, applications of IoT devices have rapidly expanded to integrate intelligent sensing and processing along with smart applications of the technology into various fields such as smart homes, smart appliances, enterprises, smart transportation including connected vehicles, smart cities, agriculture, energy, security, healthcare, shopping, location-based services including tracking and other similar fields. The exponential growth of IoT is transforming the quality of living of human beings around the globe.
Fueling the growth in the evolution of vehicles towards total automation is the development of novel sensors, 3D cameras, lidar and radar and their ability to connect to the Internet and upload the data to a cloud. The sensors on an autonomous vehicle collect anywhere from 1.4 to 19 TB of data per hour. Whether or not the vehicles are autonomous, one of the key features of connected vehicles is that they are able to share data between themselves in real-time. For example, the scene of an accident or roadwork encountered by a vehicle can be immediately shared with vehicles it is connected to. Thus, vehicles may learn about accidents or road work well in advance so as to enable them to make smart decisions and establish alternate routes to their destinations.
Standards are evolving to enable cellular vehicle-to-everything (C-V2X). For instance, 3GPP has developed LTE-V2X and 5G-V2X in Releases 14, 15, and 16. This workshop will explore the impact of 5G, 6G and beyond on connected and autonomous vehicles.
