IEEE WiVEC 2013 - 5th IEEE International Symposium on Wireless Vehicular Communications

The WiVEC Symposium seeks original papers - not published or currently under review for another workshop, conference, or journal - in the area of vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V), vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I), vehicle-to-person (V2P) and vehicle-to-grid (V2V) wireless communications. Vehicular communication areas of interest include, but are not limited to:

• RF technologies, antenna design, physical layer and propagation models, spectrum assignment and EMC regulations


• Radio resource management and interference management, MAC protocols


• Vehicular networking (architectures, ad hoc, cellular and device-to-device, heterogeneous)


• Dissemination strategies and data aggregation


• Scalability, decentralized congestion control, QoS and cross-layer optimization


• Security, liability and privacy


• Integration and interworking (sensor network technologies, roadside infrastructure, in-car electronics and embedded systems)


• Mobility management, mobility and vehicle traffic models


• Digital maps and location technologies


• Applications (eCall, eTolling, safety, traffic efficiency, traffic management, green telematics, wireless diagnosis, driver compliance, etc.)


• Electric vehicle communication, incl vehicle-to-grid communication


• Standards development, business models, policies


• Simulation models and tools


• Testbeds, testing support, conformance and plug-tests, field testing results


• Impact assessment on transport efficiency and safety
