Journal Title：Vehicular Communications

Vehicular communications is a growing area of communications between vehicles and including roadside communication infrastructure. Advances in wireless communications are making possible sharing of information through real time communications between vehicles and infrastructure. This has led to applications to increase safety of vehicles and communication between passengers and the Internet. Standardization efforts on vehicular communication are also underway to make vehicular transportation safer, greener and easier.

The aim of the journal is to publish high quality peer–reviewed papers in the area of vehicular communications. The scope encompasses all types of communications involving vehicles, including vehicle–to–vehicle and vehicle–to–infrastructure. The scope includes (but not limited to) the following topics related to vehicular communications:

Vehicle to vehicle and vehicle to infrastructure communications

Channel modelling, modulating and coding

Congestion Control and scalability issues

Protocol design, testing and verification

Routing in vehicular networks

Security issues and countermeasures

Deployment and field testing

Reducing energy consumption and enhancing safety of vehicles

Wireless in–car networks

Data collection and dissemination methods

Mobility and handover issues

Safety and driver assistance applications

UAV

Underwater communications

Autonomous cooperative driving

Social networks

Internet of vehicles

Standardization of protocols.

車輛通信是車輛之間通信（包括路邊通信基礎設施）的一個不斷發(fā)展的領域。無線通信的進步使得通過車輛和基礎設施之間的實時通信共享信息成為可能。這導致了提高車輛安全性以及乘客和互聯網之間通信的應用。車輛通信的標準化工作也在進行中，以使車輛運輸更安全、更環(huán)保、更輕松。

該期刊的目的是發(fā)表車輛通信領域的高質量同行評審論文。范圍涵蓋涉及車輛的所有類型的通信，包括車輛對車輛和車輛對基礎設施。范圍包括（但不限于）與車輛通信相關的以下主題：

車輛與車輛和車輛與基礎設施通信

信道建模、調制和編碼

擁塞控制和可擴展性問題

協議設計、測試和驗證

車載網絡中的路由

安全問題和對策

部署和現場測試
