The research efforts on cellular vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communications are gaining momentum with each passing year. It is considered as a paradigm-altering approach to connect a large number of vehicles with minimal cost of deployment and maintenance. This article aims to further push the state-of-the-art of cellular V2X communications by providing an optimization framework for wireless charging, power allocation, and resource block assignment. Specifically, we design a network model where roadside objects use wireless power from RF signals of electric vehicles for charging and information processing. Moreover, due to the resource-constraint nature of cellular V2X, the power allocation and resource block assignment are performed to efficiently use the resources. The proposed optimization framework shows an improvement in terms of the overall energy efficiency of the network when compared with the baseline technique. The performance gains of the proposed solution clearly demonstrate its feasibility and utility for cellular V2X communications.

Cellular vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication is expected to herald the age of autonomous vehicles in the coming years. With the integration of blockchain in such networks, information of all granularity levels, from complete blocks to individual transactions, would be accessible to vehicles at any time. Specifically, the blockchain technology is expected to improve the security, immutability, and decentralization of cellular V2X communication through smart contract and distributed ledgers. Although blockchain-based cellular V2X networks hold promise, many challenges need to be addressed to enable the future interoperability and accessibility of such large-scale platforms. One such challenge is the offloading of mining tasks in cellular V2X networks. While transportation authorities may try to balance the network mining load, the vehicles may select the nearest mining clusters to offload a task. This may cause congestion and disproportionate use of vehicular network resources. To address this issue, we propose a game-theoretic approach for balancing the load at mining clusters while maintaining fairness among offloading vehicles. Keeping in mind the low-latency requirements of vehicles, we consider a finite channel blocklength transmission which is more practical compared to the use of infinite blocklength codes. The simulation results obtained with our proposed offloading framework show improved performance over the conventional nearest mining cluster selection technique.
Cellular vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication is crucial to support future diverse vehicular applications. However, for safety-critical applications, unstable vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) links and high signalling overhead of centralized resource allocation approaches become bottlenecks. In this paper, we investigate a joint optimization problem of transmission mode selection and resource allocation for cellular V2X communications. In particular, the problem is formulated as a Markov decision process, and a deep reinforcement learning (DRL) based decentralized algorithm is proposed to maximize the sum capacity of vehicle-to-infrastructure users while meeting the latency and reliability requirements of V2V pairs. Moreover, considering training limitation of local DRL models, a two-timescale federated DRL algorithm is developed to help obtain robust model. Wherein, the graph theory based vehicle clustering algorithm is executed on a large timescale and in turn the federated learning algorithm is conducted on a small timescale. Simulation results show that the proposed DRL-based algorithm outperforms other decentralized baselines, and validate the superiority of the two-timescale federated DRL algorithm for newly activated V2V pairs.
Due to spectrum scarcity, the coexistence of radar and wireless communication has gained substantial research interest recently. Among many scenarios, the heterogeneouslydistributed joint radar-communication system is promising due to its flexibility and compatibility of existing architectures. In this paper, we focus on a heterogeneous radar and communication network (HRCN), which consists of various generic radars for multiple target tracking (MTT) and wireless communications for multiple users. We aim to improve the MTT performance and maintain good throughput levels for communication users by a well-designed resource allocation. The problem is formulated as a Bayesian Cramer-Rao bound (CRB) based minimization subjecting to resource budgets and throughput constraints. The formulated nonconvex problem is solved based on an alternating descent-ascent approach. Numerical results demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed allocation scheme for this heterogeneous network.
This letter introduces a novel framework to optimize the power allocation for users in a Rate Splitting Multiple Access (RSMA) network. In the network, messages intended for users are split into different parts that are a single common part and respective private parts. This mechanism enables RSMA to flexibly manage interference and thus enhance energy and spectral efficiency. Although possessing outstanding advantages, optimizing power allocation in RSMA is very challenging under the uncertainty of the communication channel and the transmitter has limited knowledge of the channel information. To solve the problem, we first develop a Markov Decision Process framework to model the dynamic of the communication channel. The deep reinforcement algorithm is then proposed to find the optimal power allocation policy for the transmitter without requiring any prior information of the channel. The simulation results show that the proposed scheme can outperform baseline schemes in terms of average sum-rate under different power and QoS requirements.
An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-aided secure communication system is conceived and investigated, where the UAV transmits legitimate information to a ground user in the presence of an eavesdropper (Eve). To guarantee the security, the UAV employs a power splitting approach, where its transmit power can be divided into two parts for transmitting confidential messages and artificial noise (AN), respectively. We aim to maximize the average secrecy rate by jointly optimizing the UAVs trajectory, the transmit power levels and the corresponding power splitting ratios allocated to different time slots during the whole flight time, subject to both the maximum UAV speed constraint, the total mobility energy constraint, the total transmit power constraint, and other related constraints. To efficiently tackle this non-convex optimization problem, we propose an iterative algorithm by blending the benefits of the block coordinate descent (BCD) method, the concave-convex procedure (CCCP) and the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM). Specially, we show that the proposed algorithm exhibits very low computational complexity and each of its updating steps can be formulated in a nearly closed form. Our simulation results validate the efficiency of the proposed algorithm.
