This book investigates and reviews recent advanced techniques and&nbsp;important applications in vehicular communications and networking (VCN)&nbsp;from a novel perspective of the combination and integration of VCN&nbsp;and connected vehicles, which provides a significant scientific and technical&nbsp;support for future 5G-based VCN. 5G-Enabled Vehicular Communications and Networking introduces vehicular channel characteristics, reviews&nbsp;current channel modeling approaches, and then provides a new generic&nbsp;geometry-based stochastic modeling approach for vehicle-to-everything&nbsp;(V2X) communications. The investigation of vehicular channel&nbsp;measurements and modeling provides fundamental supports for the&nbsp;VCN system design. Then, this book investigates VCN-vehicle combination&nbsp;from PHY and MAC layers, respectively. As for the PHY layer, many&nbsp;advanced techniques that can be effectively applied in VCN to counter the&nbsp;PHY challenges are introduced, including novel ICI cancellation methods,&nbsp;index modulated OFDM, differential spatial modulation, and energy&nbsp;harvesting relaying. &nbsp;As for the MAC layer, distributed and centralized MAC&nbsp;designs are analyzed and compared in terms of feasibility and availability. Specifically, distributed congestion control, D2D-enabled vehicular&nbsp;communications, and centralized data dissemination scheduling are&nbsp;elaborated, which can significantly improve the network performance in&nbsp;vehicular networks. Finally, considering VCN-vehicle integration, this book&nbsp;introduces several hot-topic applications in vehicular networks, including&nbsp;electric vehicles, distributed data storage, unmanned aerial vehicles, and&nbsp;security and privacy, which indicates the significance and development&nbsp;value of VCN-vehicle integration in future vehicular networks and our daily&nbsp;life. &nbsp;The primary audience for this book includes professionals and researchers&nbsp;working in the field of vehicular communications, intelligent transportation systems&nbsp;(ITS), and Internet of vehicles (IoV). Advanced level students studying electrical&nbsp;engineering will also find this book useful as a secondary textbook for related&nbsp;courses.&nbsp;

This book  provides a comprehensive picture of mobile big data starting from data sources to mobile data driven applications. Mobile Big Data comprises two main components: an overview of mobile big data, and the case studies based on real-world data recently collected by one of the largest mobile network carriers in China. In the first component, four areas of mobile big data life cycle are surveyed: data source and collection, transmission, computing platform and applications. In the second component, two case studies are provided, based on the signaling data collected in the cellular core network in terms of subscriber privacy evaluation and demand forecasting for network management. These cases respectively give a vivid demonstration of what  mobile big data looks like, and how it can be analyzed and mined to generate useful and meaningful information and knowledge.  This book targets researchers, practitioners and professors relevant to this field.  Advanced-level students studying computer science and electrical engineering will also be interested in this book as supplemental reading.

Product Description This book proposes promising mmWave solutions to promoting safe and reliable vehicular communications. The authors include topics such as channel estimation, multi-user transceiver design, and advanced index modulation. For channel estimation, unique channel properties and hybrid structures are first introduced, followed by the development of a doubly-sparse doubly-selective channel estimator. For multi-user transceiver design, the concept of hybrid block diagonalization (HBD) is first introduced, followed by a generic HBD-based transceiver design to maximize the system capacity. For advanced index modulation, the generalized beamspace modulation for uplink multi-user scenarios are first introduced, followed by the precoded beamspace modulation for the downlink. Finally, this book discusses open problems and future research directions to inspire further studies in the field of mmWave vehicular communications.

This book presents a thorough examination of index modulation, an emerging 5G modulation technique. It includes representative transmitter and receiver design, optimization, and performance analysis of index modulation in various domains. First, the basic spatial modulation system for the spatial domain is introduced. Then, the development of a generalized pre-coding aided quadrature spatial modulation system as well as a virtual spatial modulation system are presented. For the space-time domain, a range of differential spatial modulation systems are examined, along with the pre-coding design. Both basic and enhanced index modulated OFDM systems for the frequency domain are discussed, focusing on the verification of their strong capabilities in inter-carrier interference mitigation. Finally, key open problems are highlighted and future research directions are considered.Designed for researchers and professionals, this book is essential for anyone working in communications networking, 5G, and system design. Advanced-level students of engineering and computer science interested in efficiency techniques will also find the content valuable.
