Background:

As the landscape of vehicular technology evolves, the integration of AI and DL within connected and autonomous vehicles becomes increasingly paramount. Traditional methodologies for data transmission and processing have struggled to meet the low latency and high data volume requirements of modern vehicular applications. The advent of V-Edge marks a significant leap forward, offering a solution that not only addresses these challenges but also optimizes network resource utilization in a cost-effective manner.

Description:

Northeastern researchers have created V-Edge, a framework for Vehicular Edge Intelligence (VEI) that operates in unlicensed spectrum bands, enabling real-time AI and DL processing alongside high-definition video streaming. Distinct from current methodologies, V-Edge harnesses a unique blend of 60 GHz wireless and sub-6 GHz technologies, ensuring low latency, high throughput, and dependable long-distance communication. This combination facilitates rapid, large-volume data exchanges, empowering vehicles with advanced intelligence. With V-Edge, vehicles can independently collaborate, delivering prompt, advanced services to boost autonomy, eco-friendliness, and safety, all without relying solely on traditional telecom infrastructure.
