To overcome the limitations of Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC) with short range, nonsupportability of high density networks, unreliable broadcast services, signal congestion and connectivity disruptions, cellular vehicle-to-everything (C-V2X) communication networks, standardized in 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) Release 14, have been recently introduced to cover broader vehicular communication scenarios including vehicleto-vehicle (V2V), vehicle-to-pedestrian (V2P) and vehicle-toinfrastructure/network (V2I/N). In C-V2X, vehicles can directly communicate over PC5 based dedicated sidelinks called direct mode or V2V communication. However, high vehicle densities may require reuse of cellular spectrum for V2V. Moreover, infrastructure mode communication through V2I/N links can augment V2V communication by enhancing communication range and reliability for enhanced safety along with consistent performance under traffic congestions. Motivated by the stringent connection reliability, spectral efficiency, and coverage requirements in C-V2X, this paper presents the first comprehensive and tractable analytical framework for performance of C-V2X networks over shared V2V and cellular uplink channels, where the transmitting vehicles can deliver their information via infrastructure or direct mode, based on their distances, propagation environments and the bias factor. By practically modeling the vehicles on the roads using the doubly stochastic Cox process and the base-stations, we derive new association probabilities, new success probabilities of infrastructure and direct mode, and overall success probability of the C-V2X communication over shared channels, which are validated by the simulations results. Our results reveal the benefits of our proposed model (possibility of selecting both direct and infrastructure modes over shared channels) compared to V2V network in terms of success probability.Index Terms-C-V2X, V2X communication, 5G, stochastic geometry, V2V, V2I, V2I/N, V2P, uplink cellular networks.

5th generation networks are envisioned to provide seamless and ubiquitous connection to 1000-fold more devices and is believed to provide ultra-low latency and higher data rates up to tens of Gbps. Different technologies enabling these requirements are being developed including mmWave communications, Massive MIMO and beamforming, Device to Device (D2D) communications and Heterogeneous Networks. D2D communication is a promising technology to enable applications requiring high bandwidth such as online streaming and online gaming etc. It can also provide ultra-low latencies required for applications like vehicle to vehicle communication for autonomous driving. D2D communication can provide higher data rates with high energy efficiency and spectral efficiency compared to conventional communication. The performance benefits of D2D communication can be best achieved when D2D users reuses the spectrum being utilized by the conventional cellular users. This spectrum sharing in a multi-tier heterogeneous network will introduce complex interference among D2D users and cellular users which needs to be resolved. Motivated by limited number of surveys for interference mitigation and resource allocation in D2D enabled heterogeneous networks, we have surveyed different conventional and artificial intelligence based interference mitigation and resource allocation schemes developed in recent years. Our contribution lies in the analysis of conventional interference mitigation techniques and their shortcomings. Finally, the strengths of AI based techniques are determined and open research challenges deduced from the recent research are presented.

Montgomery Modular Multiplication in hardware is of great importance for the realisation of practical public key systems. Hence, an efficient implementation of modular exponentiation in terms of speed and resources in hardware is essential. This paper focuses on implementation of fully pipelined SOS based Montgomery Multiplication algorithm in Virtex-5 FPGA using DSP slices to achieve best area-speed trade off. Our implementation results and comparison with other Multipliers show that our Multiplier is comparable to known Montgomery Multipliers in terms of area-speed trade off.
